New dad Daniel Radcliffe pictured for the first time with baby after partner Erin Darke gives birth
DANIEL Radcliffe has been spotted for the first time with his baby after becoming a dad.
The Harry Potter star confirmed he had welcomed his first child into the world with long-term partner Erin Darke earlier this week.
The superstar looked like any other doting dad in New York while taking control of their newborn’s buggy.
Dressed casually in grey jeans and a hoody, Daniel, 33, carefully maneuvered the blue stroller carrying his precious cargo along the streets and around corners in the Big Apple.
His stylish partner Erin looked wore a green coat, blue jeans and red boots, with matching red sunglasses.
The couple, who met on the set of the 2013 film Kill Your Darlings, announced they were expecting in March.
Daniel, whose other film roles include 2012 horror The Woman In Black and 2016 surreal comedy Swiss Army Man, divides his time between the UK and US, with Erin.
Before his relationship with partner Erin began, Daniel had a string of short-lived romances.
They included Irish actress Laura O’Toole, Alana Dawes, British socialite Olive Uniacke, and production assistant Rosie Coker, who he dated from 2010 to October 2012.
While Daniel roared to fame on Harry Potter, Erin has also appeared in numerous successful TV shows and movies.
She played the part of Crystal Leblanc in the 2021 series Moonshine, and she’s perhaps best known for her role as Cindy in the TV series Good Girls Revolt, as well as her recurring role as Mary in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
She has also appeared in the the Beach Boys biopic film Love & Mercy (2014), the American rom-com Beside Still Waters (2013), and Oscar-nominated Still Alice (2014).
Their movie Kill Your Darlings followed the early lives of some of the most prominent figures of the Beat Generation of poets and writers, including Jack Kerouac and William S Burroughs.
In the film Daniel played the acclaimed US poet Allen Ginsberg while Erin starred opposite him as Gwendolyn, who develops a crush on the writer without realising he is gay.
Evidently smitten, Daniel opened up in an interview about the first time they met and called Erin his “best friend.”
He said: “It’ll be a hell of a story to tell our kids one day because of what our characters do with each other.
“Our characters are meeting and flirting with each other, so there is this kind of sweet record of us just meeting for the first time and flirting.”
In the film, they have a few romantic scenes together, including a sex scene.
In another interview, Radcliffe confessed he was immediately attracted to Erin, saying he didn’t need to act in their scenes.
“There’s a moment when she makes me laugh, and I’m laughing as me and not as my character.
“She was incredibly funny and smart. I knew I was in trouble.”
It comes after fellow Harry Potter star Rupert Grint also became a father, in 2020.
The actor, best known for playing Ron Weasley in the wizarding franchise, welcomed a daughter with his partner Georgia Groome.
