Septuagenarian TV star Kelsey Grammer is still growing his family, most recently with the arrival of his newest child. <\/p>\n

The beloved \u201cCheers\u201d and \u201cFrasier\u201d actor, who turned 70 in February, is now a father of eight. Grammer announced he and wife Kayte Walsh welcomed their fourth child together during his appearance on the \u201cPod Meets World\u201d podcast.\u201d<\/p>\n

We just had our fourth one, it just became eight kids,\u201d he said during the podcast episode, published Monday. \u201cChristopher, that\u2019s [who] just joined the family.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Emmy-winning TV veteran said his newest son arrived \u201cthree days\u201d before the episode taped and joked with podcast hosts Rider Strong, Danielle Fishel and Will Friedle that he has \u201cclusters\u201d of children of different ages.<\/p>\n

Grammer and Walsh, 46, married in 2011 and also share a teenage daughter and two sons. People reported<\/a> in June that the couple was expecting a child again, publishing photos of the two taking a stroll through London. <\/p>\n

The five-time Emmy winner has been married four times. Before Walsh, he was married to dancer-model Camille Donatacci. He was also briefly married to Leigh-Anne Csuhany, and dance instructor Doreen Alderman before that. His seven other children, the eldest being actor Spencer Grammer, hail from those previous relationships. <\/p>\n

The sitcom star became a grandfather in October 2011, when his son Spencer welcomed a son with ex-husband James Hesketh. <\/p>\n

In the past, Grammer has been open about the \u201cbeauty of being an older dad.\u201d He told the Guardian in 2018 <\/a>that raising children later in life he feels fortunate to \u201cget a chance to kinda try it again. That\u2019s been a real gift.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actor announced the arrival of his eighth child while promoting his book \u201cKaren: A Brother Remembers,\u201d released in May, about the brutal murder of his sister at age 18 and his lifelong battle with grief. During the episode, Fishel asked the actor how much his children knew about his late sister. <\/p>\n

He explained his older children have varying degrees of knowledge about his sister, while his younger kids will have to wait to learn more and read his book. \u201cSome of the stuff is too brutal, they don\u2019t really need to be exposed to that yet,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

Throughout the podcast episode, Grammer also recalled the proceedings in his sister\u2019s case and learning how to process the loss while delivering laughs on TV. <\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t walk around talking about it a lot, it\u2019s been with me since the day it happened,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Septuagenarian TV star Kelsey Grammer is still growing his family, most recently with the arrival of his newest…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":339158,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[18046,32809,13978,1582,276,31245,74432,167346,167189,246,167190,146351,18996,2961,224,5337,167345,6613,8763,103],"class_list":{"0":"post-339157","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-actor","9":"tag-arrival","10":"tag-book","11":"tag-ca","12":"tag-california","13":"tag-dad","14":"tag-danielle-fishel","15":"tag-different-age","16":"tag-eighth-child","17":"tag-family","18":"tag-kayte-walsh","19":"tag-kelsey-grammer","20":"tag-kid","21":"tag-la","22":"tag-los-angeles","23":"tag-losangeles","24":"tag-podcast-episode","25":"tag-sister","26":"tag-son","27":"tag-world"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115453719036628894","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339157","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=339157"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339157\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/339158"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=339157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=339157"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=339157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
