‘Harry Potter’ Actor Devon Murray Welcomes First Baby In 2021

Harry Potter actor Devon Murray has become a dad for the first time after his partner gave birth to a baby boy.

The 32-year-old actor, best known for playing Seamus in the wizarding franchise, announced the joyful news on Sunday with a photo of a cupcake and congratulatory card with their baby boy in the background.

It’s the first child for Devon and his girlfriend Shannon McCaffrey, who announced her pregnancy in July.

In an instagram post, the actor detailed Shannon’s labour writing: ‘Yesterday 2/1/21 my life changed forever. Shannon delivered our beautiful little boy “Cooper Michael Murray” weighing 6lbs 10oz. Both are doing amazing now after a very long labour and a scary few minutes at the end. It still hasn’t sunk in just yet that we have our very own little boy.

‘I can’t wait to make the most amazing memories with Shannon and Cooper as we begin our little family. I’m so amazed by Shannon and she is now my Hero. I’m so proud of her for everything she has gone through.’

He added: ‘I can’t wait to have you both home. It’s so hard having to leave you both. I will love you both forever until my last breathe ❤️🍼👶🏻.’

It seems baby boy Cooper arrived a little early as Devon previously revealed the due date to be January 14.
