Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint, who played Ron Weasley in the films, has finally joined Instagram on Wednesday (Nov 11) and for his first-ever post, he shared a selfie of himself holding his newborn daughter.
Grint and his actress girlfriend, Georgia Groome, welcomed a baby girl in May.
The 32-year-old Grint didn’t reveal his baby’s face, preferring to only show the back of her head, but he did reveal something else about her – her name.
His caption read: "Hey Instagram....only 10 years late, but here I am. Grint on the Gram! Here to introduce you all to Wednesday G. Grint. Stay safe, Rupert”.
It’s certainly a unique name as the only other Wednesday we can think of is Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family.
In just a day, Grint gained 2.6 million followers.
Fellow Harry Potter star Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy, has welcomed him onboard. Felton wrote: “Welcome Weasley, it's about time. Love to Wednesday xx".
