Chad Michael Murray shares a son and two daughters with his wife Sarah Roemer

Chad Michael Murray may be most famous for being an early 2000s heartthrob, having made his name in teen rom-coms like A Cinderella Story and Freaky Friday, as well as shows like Gilmore Girls and One Tree Hill, but these days the actor is happiest in the role of Dad.

In January 2015, Murray announced his marriage to his wife, fellow actor Sarah Roemer. Additionally, the pair confirmed that they were expecting their first child together, a son who was born later that year. Since then, they’ve added two more kids to their family, a daughter born in 2017 and a second daughter welcomed in 2023.

Before the birth of his elder daughter, Murray told Entertainment Tonight that having a family “just changes your perspective on everything.”

He explained: “It was the greatest thing that’s ever happened to me. I mean, having kids is just, it’s a game changer. I think you’re always walking around with the mentality that you want to make sure that they’re proud and represent them well. Just be a great leader.”

Here’s everything to know about Chad Michael Murray's three children.

He has coached his son's sports teams

Murray and Roemer’s first child, a baby boy, was born in 2015. While the couple have decided to keep their children’s names and faces from the public, Murray speaks fondly of his son and frequently shares life moments featuring him on social media.

For the actor’s 2023 show Sullivan’s Crossing, the family moved to Nova Scotia, Canada. Reflecting on their big move and how they settled in, Murray shared with Etalk that he had been coaching his son’s sports team.

“I was coaching little league football with my son and all the kids coming and we just had a camaraderie," he said. Murray also shared footage of his son playing on social media.

Murray loves spending time with his daughters

Murray and Roemer’s first daughter was born in 2017 and their second followed in 2023. The couple share photos of their kids with their faces obscured on social media, maintaining their daughters' privacy while showing the family’s tight bond.

In 2022, Murray shared his fatherly pride on Instagram. "When your baby girl jumps off a tree & seamlessly rolls it into her favorite Super Hero Pose?????? #GirlDad #GirlDadAndDangProudOfIt I only wish I was as cool as her ??," he wrote in the caption.

Murray and Roemer have also shared about their younger daughter, including a sweet personal quirk: she has a heart-shaped birthmark on her ankle.

The family travels together

Murray continues to travel for acting roles, so the family is often on the go — something both parents regularly showcase on social media.

The actor has shared moments from their beach vacations while Roemer has posted images and videos from their time in Thailand and taking a road trip.

Roemer homeschools the children on the road

Since the family travels for Murray’s work, school is something the young family has to take on the road, too. On Mother’s Day in 2023, Murray thanked his wife – who he called his “forever dream woman” — on Instagram for her support of the family.

“We travel the world together and It wouldn’t be possible without you. Homeschooling, pop quizzes, meals and every other mama task you can imagine," he wrote.

Murray also included that Mother’s Day became a new holiday for him upon having his own children: “I never celebrated Mother’s Day growing up because I didn’t have a Mother- but watching the selflessness and sacrifices you make, without ever flinching, blow me away and truly show me why Mothers are like no other.”

They have a "musical" household

Murray's family likes to get creative with music. During the holiday season in 2023, Roemer shared how their kids like to create songs around the house.

"Woke up to this little forest princess singing with the Christmas tree and snuck a video," she wrote on Instagram. "We make up songs everyday. Our house turns into a musical when people aren’t around:)"

Murray’s children help him decorate the house during Christmas

In a 2023 interview with Parade Magazine, Murray compared himself with Clark Griswold, the famous character from National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

“I absolutely love it,” the actor explained of the holidays. “The kids go out with me, we listen to Christmas music, get the house ready. And we do this over the course of the holiday season. It’s almost like it’s always a work in progress and never a finished product.”

By the end of the season, Murray says it’s almost “too much,” but it’s clear the family loves getting into the spirit together.
