The former girlfriend of White House Budget Director Peter Orszag has given birth to his third child, the New York Post reported Wednesday. Claire Milonas, the daughter of New York-based Greek shipping magnate Spiros Milonas, gave birth to a girl, named Tatiana Zoe, on Nov. 17 -- six weeks before Orszag announced his engagement to ABC News reporter Bianna Golodryga (pictured).

In a joint statement, Orszag and Milonas confirmed their former relationship and asked for privacy for their child: "We were in a committed relationship until the spring of 2009. In November, Claire gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Although we are no longer together, we are both thrilled she is happy and healthy, and we would hope that everyone will respect her privacy."

According to The Caucus, Orszag and Milonas dated for several months last year, before he joined President Obama's economic team, and he learned of her pregnancy after they had broken up. He has two young children with his former wife, whom he divorced in 2005.

A source told the Post that Orszag's relationship with Milonas ended in March, more than a month before he met Golodryga.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around.
