He’s building his own Empire!  Actor Terrence Howard and his partner Mira Pak, announced their second pregnancy when they attended a red carpet event last week.  This will be the second child for the couple who welcomed their first child, a son named Qirin, on May 15, 2015.

Howard’s relationship with Pak has been well documented by the news media with news of their divorce and reconciliation emerging from his legal battles with his second wife.  Pak and Howard married in 2013, but while pregnant with Qirin she filed for divorce in March of 2015, with divorce granted in July of that year.  The couple surprised many with a quiet reconciliation that fall.

Pak had previously spoken to Rolling Stone about the ups and downs in their relationship, saying: “We have an amazing connection. But, I mean, he’s not perfect. Doesn’t do the dishes. Doesn’t cook. Doesn’t lift a finger. I probably leave him 30 times a month… We don’t have a normal life. In our two years together, I’ve only gone to restaurants with him two or three times. We’ve never been to the supermarket together. We’ve never been to the movies. I’ve never gotten a gift from him. Never, never.”

Terrence has three adult children, Aubrey, Heaven, and Hunter from his first marriage to Lori McCommas.  The 47-year-old actor also has two grandchildren from that marriage; a 3 year old granddaughter and a 1 year old grandson.  His second marriage, to Michelle Ghent, ended in a tumultuous divorce in 2013.
