Will Ferrell out with sons on Tuesday

Actor and comedian Will Ferrell, 40, was spotted out on Tuesday with his sons — Magnus, 3, and Mattias, 7 months — and the family nanny. The photo agency caption states that the woman is Will’s wife Viveca, but this is untrue. The woman is the Ferrell’s nanny, Sara Svensoon, a Swedish friend of Viveca’s who has worked for the family since Magnus was an infant — he was the ring bearer in Sara’s recent wedding.

Emma Thompson's depression over infertility

258348emmathompsonpostersIn an interview with Entertainment Weekly about her long, successful career in Hollywood and her new film, Stranger Than Fiction, costarring Will Ferrell, actress / screenwriter (Sense & Sensibility) Emma Thompson, 47, shared one of her darkest periods. Emma, who has a daughter, 6-year-old Gaia, with her husband, actor Greg Wise, says she had a lengthy, unsuccessful and difficult round with in-vitro fertilization, that left her with feelings of failure and guilt.

"After that, we tried to have another child, it didn’t work, and I went into a deep clinical depression," she says. "It’s only now that I no longer count other people’s children or judge myself harshly for not providing my daughter with a sibling."

We had posted back in January about Emma and Greg adopting a 17 year old Rwandan orphan, but he’s apparently off to college!

Can you relate to Emma’s struggle with infertility?

Will Ferrell on his son Magnus' name

Tndc_4Will Ferrell answered questions from People magazine readers.  One reader asked how he and wife Viveca Paulin chose the unique name Magnus for his 2 1/2 year old son.

Will’s response: "My wife was born in Sweden and we loved the idea of a Scandinavian name.  I’ve gotten a lot of flack: ‘What kind of ego do you have to have to name your child the great one?’  That is not it at all."

According to ThinkBabyNames.com, Magnus, pronounced MAG-ness, is of Latin origin, means great.  It’s a royal name in Norway and Denmark as well as a saint’s name.  It originated in Scandinavia to Scotland. 

Will and Viveca are expecting another baby, another boy at the end of December.
