    "Thanks for v kind messages," he Tweeted. "Now I've confirmed (press somehow got birth certificate & were calling), hoping my family will be left in peace."

    As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, though the 2011 birth of Tabitha came as a surprise for the actor, he's feeling like a different man now that he's come to grips with becoming a father.

    "It's surprising that everyone was right all these years," Hugh told Ellen DeGeneres during an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" last year. "[People were] saying, 'Hugh, why don't you have some children? It changes your life.' And, you're thinking, 'Oh, shut up!' And now that I have [a child], it is life changing. I recommend it. Get some."
