Daniel Radcliffe has revealed he's had a baby boy with partner Erin Darke.

The Harry Potter star, 33, opened up about his new life as a first-time dad, telling Entertainment Tonight: "It's great. It's crazy and intense, but he's wonderful and Erin is amazing - it's a real privilege also to have this time with him.

"I was always going to take some time off, which not everyone is able to do, and so I'm able to kind of just be here with him a lot, which is lovely."

He added: "So, we're having a great time."

Adjusting to fatherhood, the actor admitted he's planning on making some changes to his career - namely being 'more selective' with certain projects in order to have more time to spend with his newborn son.

"It hasn't really yet affected things, but I really like spending time with him, and I think I'm gonna miss him when I go back to work later in the year," he revealed.

Radcliffe went on: "So, I will definitely be I think a bit more selective - not more selective, I've always been selective, but I think I'll probably work a little bit less for the next few years.

"I'll never be stopping. I don't think that's good for me either."

Radcliffe and Darke, 38, first met the set of the film Kill Your Darlings back in 2013.

Speaking to People in 2020 about that fateful meeting referring to a particular saucy scene in the movie, Radcliffe 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."

A decade later, a spokesperson for Radcliffe confirmed the news of their pregnancy earlier this year in March.

The couple didn't announce a due date at the time, but a source close to the pair said they 'could not be happier to be expecting'.

The insider added, per the Mirror: "They are absolutely thrilled, and can’t wait to become a family of three.
