Congratulations are in order for Devon Murray!
The Harry Potter star, who played Seamus Finnigan in the beloved film franchise, is expecting his first child with girlfriend Shannon McCaffrey. Devon, 31, shared the magical news on Instagram, writing alongside a snapshot of a onesie and ultrasound, “Baby Murray – 14th of January 2021.”
Devon and Shannon were showed with congratulatory messages by members of the Harry Potter cast, with Evanna Lynch writing, “Awwww congratulations Dev!! So happy for you! You’re going to be such a fun dad!”
“Congratulations Dev!! So exciting,” Scarlett Hefner commented.
In response to all the well-wishes, Devon commented on Instagram, “We’re both so happy, excited and nervous and can not wait until he/she are in our arms.”
The group of wizards that brought the Harry Potter books to life is certainly in the midst of a baby boom. In May, Rupert Grint and girlfriend Georgia Groome welcomed a baby girl.
Daniel Radcliffe reacted to the news during an appearance on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live. “I’m so happy for him. It’s very, very cool,” Harry Potter himself gushed. “It’s also, like, super weird for me to think that we are all at the age where we are having children but we definitely are.”

Daniel Radcliffe
Daniel is currently in a relationship with actress Erin Darke, who he met on the set of their 2013 movie, Kill Your Darlings. “We met on the set of Kill Your Darlings, and just got on immediately. It was one of those instant things where you’re like, ‘Oh, I really like this person.’ You just have a connection with somebody, and then suddenly it’s incredibly easy to talk to them. It was one of those sort of situations,” Daniel said about their relationship in a 2014 interview with Parade.
Emma Watson
Emma is very private about her love life and doesn’t discuss her relationships in interviews. However, she was linked to tech entrepreneur William “Mack” Knight for some time. A source told The Sun in Feb. 2016, “Mack is just a normal, down-to-earth guy who has nothing to do with Hollywood, and Emma loves that. She was left really hurt by her break-up with Matthew [Janney] and it’s taken her more than a year to feel ready to start again with somebody. They’re really happy with each other and see each other whenever Emma does not have work commitments.” But according to multiple reports, the couple has called it quits. In 2018, Emma romanced Glee‘s Chord Overstreet for several months before moving on with tech CEO Brendan Wallace later that same year. They also split. She talked about being single during a 2019 interview with British Vogue. “I never believed the whole ‘I’m happy single’ spiel,” she told the magazine. “I was like, ‘This is totally spiel.’ It took me a long time, but I’m very happy. I call it being self-partnered.”
Rupert Grint
Rupert Grint is another Harry Potter cast member that keeps his personal life on the down low. But according to reports and social media, Rupert has been dating actress Georgia Groome on and off for years. The Daily Mail posted pictures of the duo at dinner in Los Angeles back in March 2017 and one lucky fan took a picture with Rupert at the premiere of Georgia’s movie Double Date in October. Fast forward three years later and they’ve welcomed their first child together!
