Congratulations are in order again for Harry Potter star Bonnie Wright and her husband Andrew Lococo as they have welcomed their second child into the world.
The Ginny Weasley actor, who starred in the popular fantasy film franchise, shared the news on her Instagram page today (17 October) that their baby boy had arrived, as well as revealing his unusual name.
Posting a picture of the adorable newborn sleeping in a striped sleep suit, Bonnie gushed over her home-birth experience and those by her side as her son was born.

“Say hello to our son Aster Sky Wright Lococo born at home on the 28th September,” she began in the caption to her 3.7 million Instagram followers.
“Named after the star-shaped flower,” she continued: “Our little star has been showered in love by his big brother Elio.”
She signed off: “Thank you universe for my loving bundle of boys!”

She then went on to thank the midwife and doula for “guiding us through the birth portal”.
The actor, who starred in all eight instalments of the JK Rowling-created series as Harry Potter’s eventual love interest, shared a series of sweet snaps documenting the family’s first days with their newborn.
Included was a shot of Bonnie reclining in bed with her infant son on her chest.
Other photos captured husband Andrew Lococo and proud big brother – three-year-old Elio – meeting the latest member of the family.
Bonnie’s Harry Potter co-stars were quick to congratulate the couple.
