WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange had two children with one of his lawyers while imprisoned in the Ecuadorian embassy in London for much of the past decade, according to the Sunday edition of the Mail.

The 48-year-old Australian is said to be the father of two boys - one and two years of age - born to South African-born lawyer Stella Morris, the newspaper said by publishing photographs of Assange with the children and an interview by Morris who said he "fell in love" and that they were planning to get married. The two have been engaged since 2017.

Assange is detained in London's Belmarsh High Security Prison as he fights against a U.S. extradition request to be tried there on espionage charges .

According to the Mail on Sunday, Morris chose to disclose their relationship and the existence of their children because "she fears that Assange's life will be at serious risk if she stays in Belmarsh", due to the spread of the coronavirus.
