The 33-year-old actor, who appeared in the first Harry Potter movie 22 years ago, and his 38-year-old girlfriend have been together for more than 10 years, after meeting on the set of the film Kill Your Darlings.

The couple didn’t make their red carpet debut together only last year, with Daniel opening up about their relationship.

“It‘ll be a hell of a story to tell our kids one day because of what our characters do with each other. 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,” Daniel said.

“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.”

He has previously described Erin as his ‘best friend’.

“I think that’s the kind of relationship I always aspire to have with someone I’m in a relationship with. You want that person to be your best friend. In the case of Erin, we definitely are.”

Congratulations to the happy couple, and they do look very happy. It’s amazing how time flies and I didn’t realise that Harry Potter had been around for so long. I always think of the movie whenever I see Danial Radcliffe. Wish them both the best of luck in their partnership.

That’s wonderful, I wish the parents to be all the best. I wonder if the baby will be cast in a Harry Potter spin off?
