Mel Gibson’s girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva has revealed that she would like to marry the actor one day.

The Russian singer-songwriter, 39, recently gave birth to their first child together, daughter Lucia, who is also Mel’s eighth child.

In the past, she has said that they have no plans to marry, but speaking before the birth, she said that she would love to marry the Braveheart star at some point in the future, adding, “But right now we’re just so happy to be having this child together.”

She also praised Gibson’s parenting skills, saying: “Mel is fantastic with kids. He’s got seven of his own already, so he understands the dynamics of parenthood very well.”

She added: “He’s a big kid himself, really – a real practical joker. We laugh so much.”
