US actor Chad Michael Murray has announced the birth of his first son.

The former One Tree Hill actor revealed the news that his wife Sarah Roemer has given birth to their first child on Twitter.

Writing to his 719,000 followers, he posted: “Sry I'm missin @JimKellyInc charity this year in Buffalo. My fav event 2 attend, but we've been blessed with a son. Gods greatest gift.

“Sarah & I couldn't b happier & intend 2 spend many a day having family adventures & watching @buffalobills football! & also @Chargers now.”

Congratulatory messages were quick to flood in with Buffalo Bills player Aaron Williams tweeting: "Congrats to my buddy @ChadMMurray on having his new born son. Can't wait to meet him and see him go crazy at the Ralph one day."

Earlier this year Murray told Bello magazine that discovering he was to be a father was the “greatest thing in the world”.

“I'm going to sit back and enjoy this new chapter,” he said. “You know, I'm really good at staying under the radar these days. My wife and I, we don't go to the quote unquote ‘cool’ places.

“We have our own life, we have our dogs, we have our lifestyle that we truly enjoy, and we've got a cabin if we want to get away and go camping."

He continued: “I feel very good about my private scene. I'm going to do everything I can to protect my family and go from there.”
