Kelsey Grammer, 70, to become a father for the eighth time as wife Kayte Walsh, 46, shows off baby bump
Kelsey Grammer is set to become a father for the eighth time at the age of 70.
The Frasier star and his wife Kayte Walsh, 46, were photographed in London on Tuesday, showing Walsh’s baby bump as they strolled through a park together.
Walsh wore a flowing black dress that displayed her growing bump, whilst Grammer accompanied her in a navy polo shirt and white shorts. The couple appeared relaxed as they walked through the capital, with Walsh carrying a tan sweater and a bag.
This will be the couple’s fourth child together. They already share daughter Faith, 12, and sons Gabriel, 10, and James, eight. The pregnancy has not been publicly announced by the couple.
Grammer has four other children from previous relationships. He shares daughter Spencer, 41, with first wife Doreen Alderman, and daughter Greer, 33, with ex-girlfriend Barrie Buckner.
The actor also has two children with ex-wife Camille Grammer: daughter Mason, 23, and son Jude, 20. Grammer and Camille divorced in 2011 after he began his relationship with Walsh, whom he met on a flight in 2009.
The Emmy winner married Walsh in February 2011 in New York City, just days after his divorce from Camille was finalised. Camille received a $30 million settlement in the divorce proceedings.
Grammer has been married four times in total, including a brief marriage to Leigh-Anne Csuhany from 1992 to 1993.

The 70-year-old actor has recently opened up about his past failings as a father. In May, he told People magazine: “I have neglected a couple of the kids in my life, especially the first two.
“I’m trying to make up for a little of it now. I’m still their dad, so you can always have [a] chance to show up.”
He acknowledged being “busy” with work earlier in his life, telling The Guardian in 2018 that his family life “suffered” as a result.
“Honestly, the beauty of being an older dad is you get a chance to kinda try it again. That’s been a real gift,” he said.
Grammer revealed in 2022 that he and eldest daughter Spencer had “made amends” after their “hot and cold” relationship.
A source close to the couple told the Daily Mail that “Kelsey is thrilled to finally have time to fully enjoy being a father all over again.”
The source added that whilst the pregnancy was unexpected, it “has reignited a spark in their marriage that they both needed.”
The insider revealed that after completing his final run as Frasier, Grammer “has hung his hat up on that character and is ready for the next phase of his life.
“He is looking forward to embracing the hands-on parenting he missed in the past.”
Speaking to Variety in June 2024, the five-time Emmy winner said: “My children—my young children, older children—the happiest I ever am is if they’re all in the same room together.”
