The Weasley line lives on!
Rupert Grint — best known for his role as “Harry Potter” sidekick and best pal Ron Weasley — and his long-term girlfriend Georgia Groome, of “Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging,” have welcomed their first child.
“Rupert Grint and Georgia Groome are delighted to confirm the birth of their baby girl,” Grint’s publicist said Thursday in a statement to the Daily News. “We would please ask that you respect their privacy at this very special time.”

News of the couple’s then-forthcoming magical arrival was first reported last month after the 31-year-old “Servant” star and Groome, 28, were seen together in London — the latter with a prominent baby bump.
The two have been together since 2011 and were rumored to be married last year when Groome was seen with a gold band on her left ring finger.
In November, while promoting Apple TV+ show “Servant,” spoke to The News in defense of the “Potter” epilogue, which saw Ron and Hermione (Emma Watson) married with a family, though author J.K. Rowling has since said the brilliant witch should have gone with Harry (Daniel Radcliffe).
“I think on paper, it makes probably more sense that she ends up with Harry,” Grint said. “The Ron and Hermione thing was brewing for a long time, it’s that kind of classic thing. … I like how it all came together. It kind of made sense to me in a way.”
