Harry Potter actor Devon Murray welcomes his first child

Congratulations to Harry Potter alum Devon Murray. The actor announced that he and his girlfriend Shannon McCaffrey Quinn welcomed their first child, a boy, on January 2nd.

The Irish actor portrayed Hogwarts student Seamus Finnigan in all eight Harry Potter films. He also appeared in the 1999 drama Angela’s Ashes.

In the headline of a new Instagram post taken at the hospital, Devon wrote, “Shannon delivered 10 ounces to our lovely little boy ‘Cooper Michael Murray’ weighing 6 pounds. Both of them are now making up after a very long time of work and a few scary minutes end up amazingly well It hasn’t happened yet that we have our own little boy. Cant wait to have the most amazing memories with Shannon and Cooper as we start our little family. “

Devon, 32, went on to say that Shannon, who he has been with since November 2018, is now his “hero”.

“I’m so proud of her for everything she’s been through,” he continued. “I can’t wait to have you both at home. It’s so hard to leave you both. I will love you both forever until my last breath.”
