Welcome, Mr. Weasley.
Rupert Grint has become the latest celebrity to join Instagram. The "Harry Potter" star announced his arrival on the social media platform on Tuesday. For his first post, the new dad shared an extra special photo with his fans: a picture of his baby girl. "Hey Instagram....only 10 years late, but here I am. Grint on the Gram!" the 32-year-old captioned the sweet snap. "Here to introduce you all to Wednesday G. Grint. Stay safe, Rupert."
As fans may recall, Grint and girlfriend Georgia Groome announced the arrival of Wednesday, their first child together, in May.
"Rupert Grint and Georgia Groome are delighted to confirm the birth of their baby girl," the couple's rep told E! News in a statement at the time. "We would please ask that you respect their privacy at this very special time."
It was just a month earlier that the couple officially shared their pregnancy news with the world. After Groome was spotted out with a baby bump, the couple's rep confirmed to E! News, "Rupert Grint and Georgia Groome are excited to announce they are expecting a baby and would please ask for privacy at this time."
Harry Potter Kid Stars Then and Now
While the private stars like to keep their personal life out of the spotlight, it seems as though Grint is excited to take on Instagram. Just hours after joining the social media platform, the actor has already amassed over 1 million followers.
Additionally, Grint has received a flood of comments from fans and friends, including his former co-star Tom Felton. "Welcome Weasley, it's about time," he wrote. "Love to Wednesday xx."
According to his Instagram page, Grint isn't following many people. So who made the cut? Groome, Felton, David Attenborough, and of course, Emma Watson. As for his profile photo, Grint chose a magical photo of "Harry Potter's" Maggie Smith kissing him on the cheek.
