Jude Law had his late mother Margaret on his mind at his Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony.
When Law, 51, spoke with PEOPLE after he formally received a star on Hollywood Boulevard on Thursday, Dec. 12, the actor shared that his mother died recently.
“It’s been actually quite a long process because I found out and was originally going to have the service a couple of weeks back,” he said when asked to recall the moment he found out he would receive a star on the iconic Los Angeles street. “And actually, I lost my mom. So we had to delay it. But in a very odd way as a kind of final gift, it meant that a few more of my family could actually be here.”
The Oscar nominee, whose latest movie The Orderis in theaters now, was accompanied at the Dec. 12 ceremony by his wife Phillip Coan and his two eldest children Rafferty, 28, and Iris, 24.
“So honestly, the whole event has been quite an emotional experience, and obviously just a very personal occasion and really touching,” he added of the ceremony.
