UPDATE: Kimberly Stewart and Benicio Del Toro’s baby’s name is Delilah! Rod Stewart shared the happy news during an exclusive radio interview with Jono Coleman and Ian “Dano” Rogerson yesterday (the full interview can be heard after 4 p.m. on Thursday on WSFM), and also said of Benicio, “We gave each other big hugs . . . he’s a lovely guy.”

Kimberly Stewart has given birth to a baby girl! It’s her first child, and the baby’s father is actor Benicio Del Toro. While the two are no longer in a relationship, Benicio’s rep told Us Weekly that the actor is “very supportive” of Kimberly and the baby.

Kimberly also had the support of her parents, Rod Stewart and Alana Collins, and stepmother Penny Lancaster during the birth on Sunday. The newborn, whose name hasn’t been released, is the first grandchild for Rod and Alana. Congrats to Kimberly and Benicio!

Today brought the latest addition to Hollywood's long list of expecting parents — Kimberly Stewart is pregnant with Benicio Del Toro's baby! Kimberly and Benicio are not a couple, but the duo are apparently both very excited. Kimberly was linked to Jude Law a few years ago after calling off her engagement to Laguna Beach's Talan Torriero in 2005, while Benicio's been more focused on his acting career recently. The child will be the first for both celebs in addition to the first grandchild of Rod Stewart, who just welcomed his own eighth kid last month. Congrats to the parents-to-be!

Diane Kruger looked heavenly in hot pink, while Kirsten Dunst looked just as bright in blue at Sunday night's Cannes closing ceremony event. Salma Hayek was in yet another glamorous gown after showing off quite the collection from the first red carpet to the final one. Kate Beckinsale's duty as a juror also came to a close with the festival's annual award presentation, where the Palme d'Or and other accolades are handed out. A film from Thailand, Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives won the coveted Palme d'Or and Javier Bardem was named Best Actor for his work in Biutiful—an award he shared with Elio Germano from Italy. Diane presented to both Javier and Elio and the two shook on stage as they accepted their joint honours. Javier's two main women—his mum and Penelope Cruz–were both in the audience to cheer him on. Penelope skipped the posing, but held tight to Javier as they ducked out at the end of the evening. Gael Garcia Bernal also took the stage as his movie Letters to Juliet had a quiet weekend at the box office. Another Cannes on the French Riviera may be over, but it's never too early to start looking forward to next year!
