Doting dad-of-two Danny was on hand to mark his youngest son Blake’s 14th birthday on Friday and the teenager looks all grown up compared to his TV debut five years ago
Danny O’Carroll is, as ever, a doting dad today as his youngest son Blake turns 14.
The Mrs Brown’s Boys actor and his wife Amanda’s son looks all grown up now compared to his beginnings on the hit RTE and BBC sitcom five years ago.
Blake, who is also the grandson of show creator Brendan O’Carroll, made his debut as Blister back in 2019.
And today, the youngest star on the show celebrates his 14th birthday.
Danny, who plays Buster on the hit series, took to Instagram to mark the occasion.
Sharing a selfie of the pair, the TV star wrote: “Happy 14th birthday @blakeocarroll. I love you so much buddy.”
Danny and Amanda are also parents to older son Jamie, who plays Bono on Mrs Brown’s Boys.
Agnes Brown star Brendan previously revealed how Blake wanted to get involved in the family business when he saw his older brother appear on television.
He said: “Since he was two, [he’s asked] ‘Grandad, when am I going to be on the show?’ All six of my grandsons wanted to be a part of the show, but particularly Blake. Blake of all of them.
“So he always sees his older brother on there, he always sees me on there, his mam plays Betty on the show, so he’s always saying when am I going to get a go?’ So this year, finally grandad gave him his wish and let him have a go.”
Meanwhile, Danny told RSVP Magazine that he will be fully supportive of his Jamie and Blake’s future career choices, whether they pursue acting as a full-time job or not.
He told us: “As long as they are happy and healthy, I will be happy. Whether they go down the road of acting or not, it doesn’t bother me.
“There as one stage where Jamie wanted to be a marine biologist and I was a bit shocked. I don’t know where he got that from.
“Jamie is a very intelligent kid so I hope acting doesn’t get in his way if he wants to go to college.
“I will always be there for them no matter what they want to do.”
