Mark Wahlberg Adds Baby Girl to His Funky Bunch

By PopEater Staff Posted Jan 13th 2010 01:48PM

Actor Mark Wahlberg and Rhea Durham welcomed a daughter on Monday, a source confirms to PEOPLE. Grace Margaret Wahlberg joins siblings Brendan, 16 months, Michael, 3 ½, and Ella, 6.

The 38-year-old actor confirmed the pregnancy in October, announcing that Durham was expecting a girl. And this may not be the last child for the couple."My wife is allowed to pick the magic number ... as many as she wants to have," he told PEOPLE at GQ's The Gentleman's Ball.

"What I want to do is I want to raise my kids right I want to give them the world. But I also want them to appreciate it," he added.

'The Departed' star admitted that the new baby will likely be the last for the couple, who married in August. "I'm the youngest of nine, and my dad has a few others. No, four is enough," he said. "We were all raised with a lot of love. But we didn't get the kind of attention I think that we all needed. My parents had to provide to put food on the table. My mission in life is to raise my kids right. With all the success I've had in the world, if I fail at that, my life means nothing."

Normal names due to this family is white. Blacks are the ones that use those stupid african names that no one with any decent self respect would even say, as us decent whites don't want to be in anyway confused with the jungle bunnies.

Brad you are an ignorant racist pig.Oh and do a little research. There are LOTS of white celebrities with bizarro names for their kids: Shiloh, Suri, Apple,Moxie Crimefighter,Pilot Inspektor, just to name a few. Crawl back into your slimy hole.

By Katie

Won't it be fun to see those kids change their names in the future? Moxie Crimefighter and Piolt Inspecktor are the absolute worst. Makes you wonder what the parent was thinking.

When are the ignorant signal-callers at trash sites like PopEater going to realize that by and large, normal people just don't give a crap when people in Hollywood have a kid?
