Rhys Darby Welcomes Son Theo

Richard Young/Startraks

Although HBO’s Flight of the Conchords was recently canceled, it continues to produce — babies!

Rhys Darby, who played band manager Murray Hewitt on the show, welcomed son Theo shortly before Christmas. He is the second child for Rhys, 35, and wife Rosie Carnahan Darby, who are already parents to 4-year-old Finn.

In a tweet last week, Rosie wrote,

“The life of a 2 week old baby: boob, snooze, sh-t, and repeat … indefinitely, till mum begins to lose mind … and repeat…”

Rhys’ former castmates Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement are by now well-versed in that routine; Bret welcomed daughter Vita late last summer, while Jemaine became a first-time father in 2008, to son Sophocles Iraia.

Another Theo. I hadn’t known any Theos until August when a friend of mine named his son Theo, then I had a nephew Theo born a few days after that. Then I realized Bryce Howard’s son was Theo. The name has grown on me.

Theo is the name I have had picked out for years for when I have children. I really hope it doesn’t become popular!

Yay, another Kiwi baby, don’t often make it on the site of celebrity bubs, being a country of only approx 4 million! Like the name, prefer Finn, but both nice enough. Congrats to Rhys and wife, and big brother Finn. Definitely less of a mouthful than Jemaine’s son, lol.
