DECEMBER 8, 2022 - It’s a boy!
Star Trek: Discovery’s Anthony Rapp has announced that he and his partner, Ken Ithiphol, have a son. The youngster’s name is Rai Larson Ithiphol, and he was delivered by a surrogate.
The Twitter post reads, “Ken & I are thrilled to share that our family has grown! Our son, Rai Larson Ithiphol, was brought into the world on Friday, December 2, 2022, by an incredibly generous surrogate, to whom we’re eternally grateful. (Rai is pronounced like “rye” or “chai.”) We love him very much.”
Before becoming a father of a newborn child, I never anticipated being so proud of a tiny human’s burps that I’d want to brag about them to the world. But our baby’s burps are ON POINT. #fatherhood

Rapp and Ithiphol were engaged in 2019 – and again in 2020.
