Anthony Rapp (51) announced the birth of his son. The "Star Trek: Discovery" actor published a first photo on Instagram showing him with his partner Ken Ithiphol and their offspring. "Ken and I are so excited to announce that our family has grown!" he wrote. Their son, Rai Larson Ithiphol, was born on Friday, December 2 "to a wonderful surrogate who we are eternally grateful for. We love him very much," Rapp added.

According to Page Six, the couple met in 2016. Three years later, Rapp is said to have made an application to his partner. They got engaged again in 2020 when Ithiphol got on his knees. It is not known whether the two have since married.

In an interview with "Startrek.com", Rapp emphasized in 2020 how much his fiancé helped him fight Kevin Spacey (63) in court. "When I told him what I was going to do, he immediately supported me. I thank him from the bottom of my heart for being willing to do this with me."

The "Star Trek" star accused Spacey of molesting him in 1986 when Rapp was just 14 years old. The New York jury found the "House of Cards" star not guilty in the harassment trial at the end of October.
