Also, the actor is grateful to his family for loving him and being understanding whenever he has to leave home for some time to shoot a movie. Aside from being an actor, Cillian Murphy is a husband and father. He tries as much to keep his life off social media because he doesn’t think people on there have empathy.
One of Cillian Murphy’s Son Is Following His Path
As the saying goes, “The apple doesn’t fall far from its tree.” One of Murphy’s sons has taken a bold step into the same path he walked. Aran, Murphy’s younger son, played Hamnet, William Shakespeare’s son. This was his first professional performance, and throughout the performance, Aran was completely flawless.
He effortlessly performed like he was meant for the stage. Murphy had a few words to say about his son. “He was so chilled about it, you know? He would come off stage and ask what the score was in the Liverpool game,” Murphy said.
Aside from Aran’s outstanding performance, Murphy can’t help but be thankful for his son’s confidence. He is glad he has two amazing boys who are very sure of themselves. Self-awareness was a trait he didn’t have, but he’s glad his sons do.

Cillian Murphy’s Reason for Relocating to Ireland
Before Murphy decided to relocate to Ireland with his family, they all lived in Kilburn, London, for 14 years. Murphy considered many things before he moved to Ireland. One of them was the desire to see what life outside London was like. Another reason was that his 40th birthday was approaching.
Also, Cillian Murphy and his wife relocated to Ireland because they wanted their kids to grow up close to their grandparents. According to Murphy, he and his wife wanted their sons to be Irish. He also said it didn’t take long before his sons developed the Irish accent. “I hope this accent will get my sons a lot of girls when they are 15,” Murphy said jokingly.
Relocating to Ireland was the best decision Cillian Murphy and his wife made. However, that wasn’t the same for the boys. He had to promise them the Labrador they now own in order for them to be fine with the relocation.
