Daniel Radcliffe takes great pride in the milestones his 3-month-old son has achieved, including those that are yet to come. In a recent interview with E! News on July 5th, the 33-year-old actor humorously mentioned that his son is already talking at such a young age, suggesting remarkable advancement. Radcliffe expressed his happiness over his son's ability to smile, considering it a significant milestone not everyone experiences at such an early stage.
Radcliffe and his girlfriend, Erin Darke, celebrated the arrival of their first child in April. We previously announced that the couple was expecting a baby one month earlier. Since then, the Miracle Workers actor has expressed admiration for how effortlessly his girlfriend has embraced the role of motherhood.
"It's an amazing and awe-inspiring experience," he shared with E!. "Observing my girlfriend blossom into a mother is truly a breathtaking and extraordinary phenomenon. It's simply wonderful."
Radcliffe shared how fatherhood has impacted his career, jokingly stating that it hasn't changed anything yet. However, he expressed his intention to be more selective with his work, as he values spending time with his child. Despite this, he emphasized his love for his job and affirmed his continued commitment to it. Recently, the actor revealed the gender of his baby to be a boy, praising his partner Erin and acknowledging the privilege of being able to take time off to be with his child.
