PADDINGTON

director Paul King, who based the heartwarming films on Michael Bond’s intrepid bear from Peru, reveals he’s about to embark on an adventure of his very own. His wife, 36-year-old milliner Eloise Moody, will soon give birth to their first child. ‘It’s a girl and she’s due in three weeks. The hope is she’ll be born on Paddington’s birthday,’ says Paul, 42, referring to October 13, when the book first appeared.
