‘The Young & the Restless’ Star Don Diamont, 61, Welcomes First Grandbaby: First Photos & Details

The 61-year-old Don Diamont, famous for his role on “The Young and the Restless” and now a part of “The Bold and the Beautiful,” announced the birth of his first grandchild. His son, Alexander, became a father to a beautiful boy, marking a new chapter in their lives.

“‼️SOUND THE TRUMPETS🎺 OUR FIRST GRANDCHILD‼️A beautiful baby boy! 💙👶🏻💙 (no surprise there! Lol.), courtesy of Audrey @audreyfeyzdiamont and Alexander @rednaz_tnomaid. Great job, mom and dad! We are all overjoyed!!!” posted the actor on his Instagram.

Don Diamont is a father of seven boys, so he is not surprised to have welcomed a boy as his first grandchild. Alexander Diamont, his oldest son, became the first parent out of all the boys.

Alexander married his wife Audrey Diamont on July 23, 2022, and they announced their pregnancy in August of the following year. Coincidentally or not, the baby boy was named August.

August is a name with Latin origins. It means “great” or “magnificent.” While the name is not gender-neutral, it is sometimes used for girls. It is also said to be an ancient Roman name.

As Don Diamont welcomes one more boy into his big family, he had once opened up about his past tragedies. The actor lost his dad and older brother before becoming a parent to seven boys.

“I was profoundly hurt and affected by my dad and brother being taken from me so soon. I didn’t see it coming. It was not how I envisioned life,” he said in an interview.

“I thought they’d be there to meet my wife, my children, and to share experiences. That was just gone almost in the blink of an eye. Those scars remain. I wanted children. I wanted back what was taken from me. I wanted to recreate that. I have been rewarded many times over,” he
