Gibson, who won an Oscar for directing Braveheart, has seven children from his marriage to his ex-wife, Robyn Moore.

Their youngest child is 17.

He also had a 6-year-old daughter with ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

Gibson’s latest directing effort, the World War II drama Hacksaw Ridge, debuted earlier this year at the Venice Film Festival and is due in theatres on November 4.
