Ashley Walters has become a grandad at the age of 38 to adorable little girl Neveah.
The popular rapper and actor is well known for his lead role as Dushane Hill in the Channel 4/ Netflix crime drama Top Boy.
Now the star has welcomed his first grandchild as one of his eight children has had a baby girl named Neveah.
Taking to Instagram, Ashley shared an image of the adorable newborn.
Ashley penned in the caption: “Wow. How good is God ❤️ Meet my granddaughter guys. Neveah Jade Walters 6/12/2020.
“Well done Son. I’m so proud of you and T. More life.”
Ashley was also congratulated by actor-writer-director Noel Clarke for the good news. The pair work together on the crime comedy drama series Bulletproof.
Birthday boy Noel commented: “WHA!!! 1st – Congrats bro. And congrats to the whole family. God is good.
“2nd – What a great birthday to have.
“3rd – You’re a grandad now.
“You will never hear the end of this from me!!! Love ya man.”
Meanwhile, departing Doctor Who star Tosin Cole commented: “Congrats!! I can’t wait to banter you”.
Walters did not specify which of his children has welcomed the child.
The actor shares sons daughter China, 19, and sons Shayon, 20, and Panerai, 17, with his former partner Natalie Williams.
Ashley also has two daughters named Antonia and Ashleigh Walter, along with children Amiaya-Love, seven, and River, four, with his wife Danielle Isaie, who he married back in 2013.
The star is due to return for the fourth series of Top Boy when it arrives on Netflix in 2021, while a further three-part special series of Bulletproof is due to air soon in January.
