Daniel Radcliffe Spotted on Dad Duty in NYC With Erin Darke & Their Baby Boy 🍼
Harry Potter turned wholesome dad? Daniel Radcliffe may be starring in a buzzy 20-year movie musical (more on that below), but on Friday afternoon, the only role he was playing was dad-on-duty.
The actor was spotted strolling through Manhattan’s West Village with longtime partner Erin Darke and their seriously adorable baby boy — and we’re obsessed with how casual and cozy the whole moment was. No red carpet, no press junket, just a family soaking up some springtime sidewalk vibes.
Radcliffe kept things incognito (ish) in a yellow baseball cap, a face mask, navy puffer jacket, and joggers, while Erin matched the effortlessly cool vibe in a striped crop top, rolled-up sleeves, and oversized sunnies. But let’s be honest — the real scene-stealer was their little one, rocking a floppy sunhat, green hoodie, and the tiniest pair of green kicks we’ve ever seen. Certified icon behavior.

Eyewitnesses say the trio looked relaxed and happy as they walked through the West Village. Radcliffe held a coffee in one hand and pushed the stroller with the other — a true multitasking wizard.
And if you’re wondering, yes — this is a rare sighting. Radcliffe and Darke welcomed their son in 2023 and have kept things very lowkey ever since.

🎬 From Broadway to Baby Bottles
This low-key family moment comes right as Radcliffe is making major career moves. He’s starring in Richard Linklater’s long-game musical project Merrily We Roll Along — a film that’s being shot over 20 years and just got picked up by Sony Pictures Classics. (Yes, you read that right: 20 years.)
In the film, Radcliffe plays one of three friends whose lives unravel over two decades, with scenes filmed every few years to capture their actual aging. Which means, while he’s sipping lattes and parenting in NYC now, we’ll be watching this story unfold until 2040. Wild.
