Hollywood's favourite Swedish export Bill Skarsgård, renowned for his chilling portrayal of Pennywise in the It franchise, is celebrating the most heartwarming news of all - he's officially a father of two!
A Private Swedish Affair
The 33-year-old actor and his partner, acclaimed Swedish actress Alida Morberg, have welcomed their second child together in an intimate ceremony surrounded by close family and friends in their native Sweden. The couple, who've been relatively private about their relationship, chose to share their joyful news through traditional Swedish birth announcements.
Expanding the Skarsgård Dynasty
This new addition marks the second child for the loving couple, though details about their firstborn remain closely guarded. The Skarsgård acting dynasty continues to grow, with Bill joining his famous father Stellan and brothers Alexander, Gustaf, and Valter in both Hollywood success and family life.
The birth was celebrated in true Swedish fashion, with the couple participating in the customary tradition of placing birth announcements in local newspapers. This charming practice allows friends, family and well-wishers to share in their happiness while maintaining their cherished privacy.
From Horror to Happiness
While Skarsgård may be best known for terrifying audiences as the demonic clown Pennywise, his real-life story couldn't be more different from his on-screen persona. The actor has successfully balanced blockbuster horror roles with more recent charming performances, including his role in the hit series Derry Girls.
Fans of the actor have flooded social media with congratulations, proving that even Hollywood's scariest clowns have the softest hearts when it comes to family.
