Irish actor Timothy V Murphy has welcomed his first child, a son, with wife Caitlin Manley. They have named their little bundle of joy Sean Fionn Murphy.
A representative for the actor – best known for his roles in Sons of Anarchy and True Detective – confirmed the lovely news to People magazine last night.
“Caitlin and I are delighted to announce the arrival of our son, Sean Fionn Murphy, into the world on July 22, weighing in at seven-and-a-half pounds,” the actor said.
He added, jokingly: “As Helen Rowland once said, ‘A man’s desire for a son is usually nothing but the wish to duplicate himself in order that such a remarkable pattern may not be lost to the world.’”
The 55-year-old, from Tralee in Kerry, broke his baby news during an interview with Brendan O’Connor on RTÉ Radio 1, back in early June.
“I have a steady woman now, which is good, and we’re having a child in a couple of weeks,” he said at the time.
Congratulations to Sean, Caitlin and their family on this wonderful news.
