Why All the Contracts?

Actress Amy Irving, expecting a baby in June by director Steven Spielberg, says the two have signed a contract in which "Steven's legally responsible for everything a father would be if we were married."

"We've got a family lawyer who came up with a support agreement," Irving revealed. Spielberg "has the same rights and responsibilities as a father."

"Somewhere down the line, Steven and I may celebrate our love for each other and get married," she said. "We're so married in our hearts it seems redundant to think of a wedding now."

Then why all the contracts?
