When Daniel Radcliffe and Erin Darke initially came together as romantic partners on screen in Kill Your Darlings, they found they had chemistry off-screen as well. Even though they have kept their relationship private, their years of supporting one another’s endeavors shows how much they respect one another.
Daniel Radcliffe previously revealed to People, “I’ve got a really nice life. I’ve been with my girlfriend for a decade pretty much. We’re really happy.”
Erin Darke’s Body of Work
A spokesperson for the Harry Potter star revealed to People in March 2023 that Radcliffe and Darke were expecting their first child. Here are all the specifics of Erin Darke and Daniel Radcliffe’s relationship.
In 2009, Darke made her feature film debut in the short film Obelisk Road. She has since starred in a number of motion pictures and television shows, including Dietland, Good Girls Revolt, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Notable performances in the Oscar-nominated movie Still Alice and the Beach Boys biopic Love & Mercy are also part of her resume.
Background
Darke was raised in the Midwest and was born in Flint, Michigan. At the age of sixteen, she enrolled at the University of Michigan-Flint, taking an early step toward her education. She earned a bachelor of fine arts in theater performance in 2005.
When did the two meet?
After landing a part in Kill Your Darlings, Darke and Radcliffe had their first on-set encounter. They clicked right away, and it’s fascinating to note that they played romantic interests on television. Later, Radcliffe told People that he wasn’t acting in their scenes together and that his flirting on screen was real.
Public Life
Both Radcliffe and Darke have made a conscious decision to live private lives, avoiding the spotlight unless it is for the purpose of promoting their works.
In addition to talking about the difficulties of dating a famous person, Darke addressed an online rumor about their relationship with Vulture, “Dating a famous person teaches you very quickly that s— is weird sometimes. People are weird with fame sometimes. You do start to dismiss things you read about your partner if you’re pretty sure they’re not true.”
Radcliffe said in conversation with Newsweek, “I want my kids, if and when they exist … I would love them to be around film sets.”
Embracing Parenthood
Just six months after he told Newsweek that he wanted to keep his future child anonymous, a representative for Radcliffe confirmed to People in March 2023 that the couple was expecting their first child.
Radcliffe revealed that Darke had given birth to a child in July 2023.
Rare glimpse at the 2024 Emmy Awards
Usually keeping a quiet profile, Radcliffe and Darke made a notable exception at the January 2024 Emmy Awards.
Before the ceremony, the pair walked the red carpet and posed for pictures. For his role in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, Radcliffe was nominated for a Lead Actor award in a limited or anthology series or film.
