Just last week, Robert, 49, paid a very sweet tribute to his wife and their soon-to-be-born daughter as he accepted an award at the BAFTA Los Angeles Jaguar Britannia Awards for excellence in film. "It's just the uncertainty of how nowadays you have all these things where you think you have much more of an understanding of what you're going to get," he said. "And then this little soul lets herself be known to you, and it's just like: You don't know anything. It's great!"

Robert revealed in July that the couple were expecting a baby girl. "Yo. Susan. Me. Baby. Girl. November. Scorpio?" he wrote on Twitter. He went on to confirm the news again on his Facebook page. "Um. I don't know if it's a 'man's world', but I'm certain women run it," Robert said. "Susan and I are therefore delighted to announce we are expecting a baby. Girl. November."
