Daniel Radcliffe, best known for his role as Harry Potter, has been spotted with his newborn baby, two months after becoming a dad for the first time. The 33-year-old actor and his long-term partner, Erin Darke, 38, were seen taking a stroll in New York’s West Village on Father’s Day, with Radcliffe carrying their baby in a baby carrier.
The couple, who are known for keeping their personal lives private, have not revealed the name or gender of their child yet. However, during their outing, the baby was seen wearing blue socks and a sage bucket hat, adding a touch of cuteness to the casual occasion.
Radcliffe and Darke have been together since 2012 and have maintained a low-profile relationship. They have only made a few public appearances together, notably attending the premiere of “The Lost City” in March last year.
The couple first met while filming “Kill Your Darlings” in 2013, where they shared a memorable sex scene. Talking about their on-screen chemistry, Radcliffe mentioned in an interview that it would be an interesting story to tell their kids one day. He described their first meeting as sweet and shared how they immediately clicked and flirted with each other.
Radcliffe’s “Harry Potter” co-star, Rupert Grint, also entered the parenthood club in 2020 when he welcomed a baby girl with his long-term partner, Georgia Groome. Both Radcliffe and Grint have managed to keep a level of privacy around their personal lives, just like their other “Harry Potter” co-star, Emma Watson.
Watson, who last starred in the 2019 film “Little Women,” took a break from acting and retreated from the public eye. She had a hiatus from social media and kept a low profile until recently. Watson reunited with her co-stars in the televised 20-year “Harry Potter” reunion special in 2022 and has slowly begun re-entering the spotlight, including returning to Instagram and attending public events.
Although Watson hasn’t announced any new acting projects, she expressed her desire to step in front of the camera again in a recent interview. She spoke about the importance of finding the right roles that align with her values and interests without feeling the need to compromise her true self.
As for Radcliffe, his focus seems to be on his growing family. Stepping out with his newborn baby shows his commitment to fatherhood and his happiness in this new chapter of his life. The couple’s casual stroll on Father’s Day captured the love and joy they share as parents, even though they continue to keep the details of their child’s life private for now.
