Harry Potter fans: prepare to feel very old as Daniel Radcliffe has welcomed his first child with long-term partner Erin Darke.

The 33-year-old wizard and American actor Darke, 38, have become parents for the first time, his rep confirmed to UNILAD.

"We can confirm that Erin Darke and Daniel Radcliffe have welcomed their first child," they said.

The famous couple - who have been dating for more than 10 years - first met on the set of 2013 film Kill Your Darlings.

Radcliffe's girlfriend is perhaps best known for appearing in Amazon Prime Video's series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

While we all know what Radcliffe is famous for, he recently starred in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which was released last year.

The biopic follows the life and career of comedian Weird Al Yankovic who rose to fame with comical spoof versions of classic songs.

The acting duo will yet again share the screen for a series called Miracle Workers, which Radcliffe executive produces.

"We definitely like [working together], but it's not something we want to do all the time," the Harry Potter actor said.

"Hopefully we'll get to do more in the future, but we also both write. So maybe we'd write something together at some point, and that would be cool."

Radcliffe has also opened up about the first time he met Darke, and how they had to share a sex scene in the film.

"It'll be a hell of a story to tell our kids one day because of what our characters do with each other," he previously told People.

"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."

He expanded on the experience to Playboy Magazine: "There's no acting going on - not from my end, anyway. 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."

The British star happens to be the second of the iconic Harry Potter trio to become a parent, as Rupert Grint welcomed a daughter called Wednesday G. Grint in 2020 with his partner Georgia Groome.

At the time, the couple’s representative said: "Rupert Grint and Georgia Groome are delighted to confirm the birth of their baby girl. We would please ask that you respect their privacy at this very special time."
