The 48-year-old Australian is allegedly the dad of two boys — aged two and one — born to South African-born lawyer Stella Morris, the Mail on Sunday reported.
OMG! The kid looks just like him!
The newspaper published the report alongside photographs of Assange with the toddlers and an interview with Morris who said they “fell in love” and were planning to marry.
The couple have been engaged since 2017, according to the paper, which said it learned about the revelations in court papers seen last week.
Miss Morris first met Assange in 2011 for a cup of tea at London's Frontline Club, a popular media and legal haunt, when her friend Jennifer Robinson, WikiLeaks' lawyer, put out a request for help fighting the Swedish claims.
Miss Morris had an international upbringing with her theater director mother and urban planner father.
The family spent time in Sweden meaning she was a fluent Swedish speaker, able to help defend Assange against the allegations, which were rescinded last year.
She is also a fluent Spanish speaker, a skill which would become equally critical when Assange sought asylum in a South American embassy the following year.
She has a degree in law and politics from London's prestigious School of Oriental and African Studies and took her MSc at Oxford where she was a noted scholar.
She became a member of Assange's inner circle in the embassy, officially changing her name from Sara Gonzalez Devant to Stella Morris so she could maintain a lower profile while researching and drafting legal documents for WikiLeaks.
Assange is being held in London’s high security Belmarsh prison as he fights an extradition request by the United States to stand trial there on espionage charges.
And here I always figured he was gay. Goes to prove "All that flits don't necessarily do splits".
