Speaking to the Observer this week to promote her film Hunky Dory, a low-budget British movie, Minnie Driver left several clues to his identity, claiming he was a writer on The Riches, the American TV series in which she co-starred with comedian Eddie Izzard.
When asked whether he was a good father to Henry, Minnie Driver said: “Sort of. He’s figuring it out . . . I mean, he hasn’t been that involved; his choice. But he is now.”
Minnie Driver, 42, dated Timothy J Lea for a short time before they split up.
Timothy J Lea was brought up in Australia and moved to America where he graduated from high school in Stamford, Connecticut.
Minnie Driver said of her decision to keep his identity a secret: “We weren’t together and he wasn’t directly in the business, so I chose to protect him and not have a rain of publicity. He’s not famous. There’s no big story.”
Despite splitting up with Henry’s father before he was born, Minnie Driver said she had coped well with being a single working mother: “I had good friends around me, so it was sort of hilarious.
“I was making a film at the time and the paparazzi would shout: <<Who’s the sperm donor?>> at me.”
The actress’ mother Gaynor Churchward, a former couture model and designer, was mistress to her father Ron Driver, a self-made millionaire who had a wife and daughter who knew nothing of his other family.
Speaking about her childhood, Minnie Driver said: “My father lived his life and he didn’t look much beyond that evening. But I think that’s a good thing. I think I’m like him in a way.”
