Romany Malco revealed that he became a father for the first time at the age of 52.
The Think Like A Man actor took to social media to share an intimate photo of him enjoying kangaroo care with his child.
He wrote, “Not that anyone asked but in this pic I’m holding THEE main reason for my lack of activity on social media. With everything going on in the USA I wasn’t sure if sharing this young man via social media was the right thing to do. But then I figured there are some people who are genuinely interested in my take on the experience of becoming a biological father. So here goes.”

Malco continued expressing gratitude for his child’s mother. “His name is Brave. He was born Jan 22, 2021 at 6:52 AM. Breech birth, and it all happened within a matter of 5 minutes. After witnessing the entire birthing process, I felt a deeper love for my life partner. She loves it when I call her my queen … I find it more amusing to call her my baby momma…But the love I feel for her now is heightened, something new that I can’t yet describe.”
Romany Malco even took the time out to show love to his own mother. “My appreciation for my mother is also heightened. I had to call and thank her for carrying me 9 months, having me and caring for me as a newborn.”
In the lengthy post, he also opened up about his upcoming journey through fatherhood. “I ain’t worried about money. I feel no pressure to change. I’m only concerned with consistently being present, responsible, nurturing, receptive, patient observant, supportive, honest and loving towards my family and the world. Same as always and hopefully improving with time.”
