The 42-year-old actor and his longtime girlfriend Viviane Thibes have welcomed a son named Ryder into the world, who is now the newest addition to their family, joining three-year-old daughter Lua Izzy.
Viviane confirmed the news on social media, where she posted a new family photo and wrote: “This year has been really tough on all of us , but God has sent us a blessing. Ryder I love you so much (sic)”
Cameron also posted the same image on his own account, and added: “Touch down planet earth. Welcome my Son...Ryder T. Douglas (sic)”
It’s not yet known what the T. stands for in Ryder’s name, and no further details - such as the tot’s exact birth date - have been made public.
The happy news has already been met with congratulations, as Cameron’s father and iconic Hollywood star Michael Douglas, left a comment on his son’s post wishing him all the best with his new arrival.
It read: “So happy for Vivian and you. Don’t think Lua is sure about this yet! What a holiday present.”
Cameron’s new arrival comes after he turned his life around after spending six years in prison between 2010 and 2016 for drug-related offences after becoming addicted to heroin and cocaine.
Following his release from jail, Cameron went on to publish a memoir titled 'Long Way Home’ in 2019, and hopes to help other addicts into rehabilitation.
And last year, his dad Michael - who has Cameron with his first wife Diandra Luker, and has son Dylan, 20, and daughter Carys, 17, with his current wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones - explained he is "so proud" of his son’s recovery process.
He said: "He's doing great, he's in wonderful shape. I'm just so proud. He's had a rough go of it. Addiction is just a terrible terrible disease. It affects all families. He's planning on doing speaking engagements. Things are looking up in the future.
"There were moments when hope dwindled ... and then it's just a train out of the station. Life became a series of crises. I thought I was going to lose him."
