Recently, Romany Malco took to social media, celebrating the fact that he’s now a biological dad for the first time, at 52. He finally disclosed the reason he’s been away from social media.
He went ahead and posted a photo of himself holding his newborn son Brave on Instagram. He took time to caption the photo with a very long message, saying he’d witnessed the whole delivery process.
“Not that anyone asked but in this pic I’m holding THEE main reason for my lack of activity on social media,” wrote the actor.
“His name is Brave. He was born on January 22, 2021 at 6:52 AM,” said Malco, referring to his son. “Breech birth and it all happened within a matter of 5 minutes.”
Malco explained how his love for his wife escalated after having witnessed the delivery of his son. “After witnessing the entire birthing process, I felt a deeper love for my life partner. She loves it when I call her my queen. I find it more amusing to call her my baby momma. But the love I feel for her is now heightened, something new that I can’t yet describe.”
Malco also explains how moved he was that he had to call his mother “and thank her for carrying me for 9 months, having me and caring for me as a newborn.”
Malco explains his decision to have children later in life. He also speaks about his two stepchildren.
“Based on my upbringing and psychological disposition, waiting to have a child later in life feels right. I’m already a stepdad of two. Our 11-year-old and 17-year-old have done an incredible job of preparing me for this moment. They have taught me unconditional love and they’ve rallied for Brave in unexpected ways. Now seeing my genes expressed in this little man is fascinating to observe,” Malco continued.
He received well wishes from renowned actors like Gabrielle Union, Taraji P. Henson, Jodie Turner-Smith filled the comment section. Tami Roman also took time to wish his Tijuana Jackson co-star well.
