Harold Perrineau And Wife Welcome Third Daughter
Actor Harold Perrineau and his wife Brittany welcomed their third child, and third daughter, Thursday morning.
Holiday Grace Perrineau was born at 2:54 am, People reports. The baby girl weighed in at 7 pounds and 5 ounces, and measured 21 inches.
“Holiday Grace is here, and we couldn’t be any happier,” the 49-year-old told the magazine. “Our family feels complete. Mommy and baby are doing well and big sisters Aurora and Wynter are [thrilled].”
Holiday Grace joins big sisters Aurora, 18, and Wynter Aria, 4 1/2.
Harold Perrineau is best known for his role as Michael Dawson on Lost. His character remained on the series until the twelfth episode of the sixth and final season.
Perrineau was recently cast to play drug kingpin Damon Pope, the main antagonist on the fifth season of FX’s Sons of Anarchy. Perrineau said that creator Kurt Sutter envisioned the character as the series’ version of heroin dealer Frank Lucas, who was portrayed by Denzel Washington in Ridley Scott’s 2007 film American Gangster. Lucas was known for cutting out the middleman and buying his supply directly from a source in the Golden Triangle, one of Asia’s two main opium producing areas.
Perrineau will also be reprising his role as Julian Murch in the upcoming sequel to the 1999 film The Best Man. Co-star Nia Long said last month that the working title is The Best Man Christmas, which was originally scheduled to be released November 15, 2013, but may be pushed back a couple of weeks to be released on or around Christmas. The film begins shooting in April, and the entire cast of the original will be returning for the sequel, which finds the friends reuniting over the holidays after 15 years. However, they find that old rivalries and romances die hard.
Congratulations to Harold and Brittany Perrineau on their new addition.
