Bond Girl at 47: Caterina Murino Welcomes Miracle Baby After IVF Battles
SPOILER ALERT: Bond Girl Caterina Murino, 47, Welcomes Baby Boy After Years of IVF Heartache - And We've Got All the Juicy Details!
The Italian bombshell, who sizzled on screen opposite Daniel Craig in the iconic 2006 Bond film Casino Royale, has finally achieved her dream of motherhood. But what a journey it's been! Caterina Murino has shared the exciting news with her fans on social media, and we're about to spill all the tea.
According to sources close to the actress, Caterina, who is now 47 but will turn 48 this month, gave birth to a beautiful baby boy named Demetrio Tancredi Rigaud Murino on August 21st at 6:17 pm. The little one weighed in at an impressive 8 pounds and 1 ounce (though we're sure he's already stolen his mama's heart).
But what makes this story even more compelling is the fact that Caterina has been open about her struggles with fertility over the years. In a previous interview, she revealed that she had suffered two miscarriages and underwent a grueling IVF process to conceive. It seems like all those sleepless nights and tears were worth it, because now she's beaming with joy as a new mom.
The actress, who has been in a relationship with French Lawyer Edouard Rigaud since 2019, shared the news on social media with a heartwarming post that left her fans swooning. "llithyia,Hercule,Selené and Leto announce the birth of their little brother Demetrio Tancredi Rigaud Murino on 08/21/2025 at 6:17pm..." she wrote, adding that her cats, Illithyia, Hercule, Selené, and Leto, were now proud owners of a new sibling.
But what about the father-to-be? Well, it seems like Edouard Rigaud has been a rockstar through it all. According to insiders, he's been incredibly supportive throughout Caterina's fertility journey, and has been by her side every step of the way.
When asked about her experiences with IVF in an interview earlier this year, Caterina revealed that she had finally conceived successfully using the treatment. "I haven't had any diabetes, discomfort or insomnia," she said, beaming with pride. It seems like all those late-night injections and doctor's appointments were worth it!
But what really got our attention was when we discovered that Caterina has been linked to none other than French rugby player Pierre Rabadan in the past. We wonder if this dashing athlete will now become a part of their little family...
And, as it turns out, Caterina wasn't the only one who had high hopes for motherhood. Just last year, she confessed that she was hoping for a miracle baby at 46, saying: "Not having children is a pain, not a regret. At 46, I think the one who distributes miracles has forgotten about me." Well, it looks like those miracles came in the form of a handsome little boy named Demetrio!
TheScholarlyNote.com can exclusively reveal that Caterina and Edouard are over the moon with joy and are busy adjusting to life as new parents. When we asked their rep for comment, they simply said: "They're both doing great and enjoying every moment of parenthood."
We can't wait to see more updates on this adorable family! Congratulations, Caterina, on your little miracle - you've certainly earned it after all those years of hard work and perseverance.
