Cheers to Kelsey Grammer’s growing family!
The “Frasier” star announced he and wife Kayte Walsh recently welcomed a baby boy named Christopher during Monday’s “Pod Meets World” podcast.
It’s the actor’s eighth child, his fourth with Walsh.
“It was like three days ago,” he told hosts Danielle Fishel, Will Friedle and Rider Strong. “Christopher that’s just joined the family.”
The “Cheers” actor, 70, became a dad in 1983 when he welcomed daughter Spencer, now 43, with his first wife, Doreen Alderman.
After the former couple’s 1990 divorce, Grammer fathered Greer, now 33, with then-girlfriend Barrie Buckner.
The Emmy winner was briefly married to Leigh-Anne Csuhany before moving on with Camille Grammer.
Kelsey and the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum, 56, have co-parented daughter Mason, 23, and son Jude, 20, since their 2011 divorce.
The Golden Globe winner had an affair with Walsh, 46, while married to Camille — and the duo tied the knot in February 2011 in New York City.
Their three children — daughter Faith, 13, son Gabriel, 11, and son James, 8 — were born in 2012, 2014 and 2016, respectively.
News broke in June that the actor was expecting baby No. 8 when he and Walsh stepped out in London.
The former flight attendant’s baby bump was on display during the stroll in a navy blue dress and tan cardigan.
At the time, a source told the Daily Mail that Kelsey was “thrilled” about adding to his brood.
“He’s been incredibly supportive of Kayte throughout this pregnancy, which, though unexpected, has reignited a spark in their marriage that they both needed,” the insider continued.
The outlet claimed that Kelsey planned to engage in “the hands-on parenting he missed in the past” while at the height of his career.
The Tony winner has been vocal in the past about his family life “suffer[ing]” due to his job — and he told The Guardian in 2018 that he has had the opportunity to “kinda try it again” with Walsh.
“[That’s] the beauty of being an older dad,” he gushed, calling the experience a “real gift.”
