The 49-year-old director bought every pair of lace-up boots in Helena’s size from trendy shop Cop Copine, in north London’s Hampstead area, to take to the hospital for his partner, who gave birth to a baby girl on Saturday night (15.12.07).
A source close to the couple told the Daily Express: “Helena’s not your typical diamonds girl so Tim thought she would appreciate a bit more thought and he knows how much she loves these black boots so he decided to buy her four pairs.”
Helena and Tim, who already have a four-year-old son Billy Ray, are famed for their oddball lifestyle, and live in separate wings of their London home.
Helena recently revealed Tim was going to decorate their house over Christmas in a very distinctive way.
She said: “He decorates it with dead babies and slime balls and things. It looks lovely and glittery from afar, and then as you get closer, you realise it’s rather gory.”
