Barney Walsh, known for his role in Bradley Walsh & Son: Breaking Dad, recently opened up about the possibility of having a child in the future. The 27-year-old has been a co-host alongside his father, Bradley Walsh, in the popular travel show, where they embark on adventures across various countries.
During an appearance on Virgin Radio’s Chris Evans Show, Barney was asked if he would consider having a son in order to continue the show with him. The question arose as a playful suggestion for a potential new series. To this, Barney responded by keeping the door open, indicating that while he is often away, he doesn’t rule out the idea completely.
In addition to his work on Breaking Dad, Barney has established himself as a prominent figure in the television industry. He has showcased his acting skills in shows like Casualty and has also taken on presenting roles. Notably, he and his father were announced as the presenting duo for the revival of Gladiators in 2024, which has been met with positive reception.
Barney’s personal life has also garnered attention, particularly in his relationship with Stephanie Del Valle Diaz, a Puerto Rican musician and model. The couple maintains a private life, but occasionally make public appearances together. Barney is reported to reside with his parents in a lavish barn converted into a home in Epping, Essex, complete with luxurious amenities. Meanwhile, Bradley Walsh, who initially gained fame as a presenter, is known for his role in The Chase on ITV.
As the father-son duo graces the screens in the semi-final of Gladiators, it’s evident that Barney Walsh has carved his own path in the entertainment industry and continues to make strides in both his professional and personal life.
