Pretty Little Liars Actor Ian Harding Talks about his Childhood and Being Famous!
- Ian Harding and Sophie Hart welcome their first child.
- The actor shared a snap of him holding his newborn’s hand on Instagram.
- He did not reveal the baby’s face or sex.
Ian Harding had a fairly difficult childhood
Ian Harding and Sophie Hart dated for 8 years and tied the knot in 2019 in great secrecy. But they did not announce the news until 2021.
Harding had previously described the pros and cons of being a celebrity and said:
“There are some perks of fame that I enjoy, but I’m a bad celebrity because I cannot keep stoking the fire of my own image, but maybe that’s what is required to be a big film or TV star.”
Talking about the sudden fame he found after the hit show Pretty Little Liars, the actor said:
“I didn’t know how to process becoming popular other than by being a little bit more withdrawn in public because it’s a very weird thing if people recognize you, but at the same time, you feel bad for feeling bad about it because you’re so lucky.”
He also talked about his hard childhood in his 2017 memoir Odd Birds where he revealed that he is now in a good stage of life.
The actor revealed in his book debut:
“I didn’t want it to be a tell-all because those are fairly cheap. I’ve had a very good life, and not that I’ve had an easy life, but especially when it comes to family stuff, I now see what I’m really grateful for.
”My family was not perfect, so I wanted to focus on the stuff that I’m grateful for and that I now know and appreciate as an adult.”

Harding and Hart welcomed their first child together
The Pretty Little Liars fame actor announced the good on his birthday on Friday via social media. The new father shared a beautiful picture of him holding his newborn’s hand.
The star captioned the photo:
”Thank you for the Birthday wishes folks,”
”I’m thankful for many things this past year, but most of all I’m grateful for the best early birthday present a fella could ask for.”
Ian, however, did not reveal the baby’s face and also did not show its face and did not mention the sex.
Even the date of their little one’s birth is unclear.
It might be because the actor is extremely private about his personal life and he wants to protect the privacy of his child.
The actor played the role of teacher Era Fitz in the Freeform drama for seven years from 2010 to 2017.
