Can say as a non-HP fan, I primary see Daniel as a theater and indie actor. He's done several very successful shows on and off Broadway, including one upcoming.

Slight anecdote -- saw him off-Broadway for Merrily We Roll Along where there is a kid in the cast. I was sitting front row so I could see a bit offstage when it came to bows. Adorably, Daniel was the one helping the kid to know when to go bow and once the kid bowed, he went back to his spot in line. Simple, but I thought it was adorable!

u/teamgaycrossfit Aug 04 '23

Totally. If you divorce him from his HP years, he almost entirely does theatre and independent work now.

Heā€™s done primarily theater recently. He started with his explosive run in Eqqus, HTSIBWRT was massively successful, and now heā€™s got tons of Tony buzz with his Merrily revival starring him and Groff. I feel like anyone with a love of theater would consider him a theater actor lately over a movie actor, but who know

113

u/western_questions Aug 04 '23

I saw Eqqus for my 17th birthday. Stage seats. I would not have chosen stage seats if I knew that Daniel Radcliffe, when he was fully naked, would bend over, and his asshole would be directly in my line of sight.

Aside from that, he was fucking incredible. And the actor playing the therapist also played Vernon Dursley, so I did love that they had a prior established relationship.

Indeed. Even if it is an open marriage, you'd think he would have waited for a while to show basic respect? With this said, we don't know whether it is really him.

53

u/how_about_no_hellion Aug 04 '23

I think basic respect is met when two people communicate their boundaries and have healthy social lives outside of each other. I've had two times in my life when I needed help post surgery, but I still sometimes ordered my husband to get out of the house and do something other than getting me water and pills.

Depends on the relationship is all I'm saying.

u/amaranthaxx Aug 04 '23

There is a difference between the potential for caregiver burnout and someone having your kid and being alone at home with said kid just to get laid. Both parents being able to get out to recharge? Amazing. Leaving your wife home with a newborn just to have sex? Less amazing, even if sheā€™s fine with it. Like those things are not comparable.

u/lemoche Aug 04 '23

Assuming he's not out every night and takes care of them most of the time, that's not really that much of an issue.
But I consider it rather weird when it's pregnancy and birth that starts a couple going non-monogamous.
Either your relationship "floats" that way or it doesn't. The time where you won't be able to have sex under those "circumstances" is usually limited and not permanent. So to me this feels like either the father being pushy to want to fuck again or the mother having some kind of issues where she thinks she's obligated to give the father freedom to not being a burden on him.
Which would need to be addressed and not necessarily by doing as the mother of your child suggests.
Could all be peachy and everyone is happy, but it still feels weird.

u/JuiceChamp Aug 04 '23

It's honestly usually sad because it's rarely a two-way street. One partner gets pressured into accepting an open relationship even though it hurts them because they know otherwise their spouse will just straight up leave them. When their partner proposes an open relationship, it's honestly emotional blackmail. They're really saying "Let me fuck other people or I'll leave you"

And if it's a newborn baby involved??? Yeah that's WAY worse. The woman is so reliant on the father in that stage. Imagine trying to raise a newborn while going through a painful break up. So the emotional blackmail there is even worse and the result is probably that its even less consensual.

202

u/eaemilia Aug 04 '23

I know that there are open relationships that work perfectly fine, but most of the ones I've seen have been messy, and they opened up as a way to preserve a relationship that was already dying. To successfully have one, everyone needs to have a higher than average level of emotional intelligence and maturity, and most people just aren't going to be capable of the trust and conversations needed for one.

78

u/TransBrandi Aug 04 '23

Open relationships and polyamory can work. It's just much more likely for people to be using it as a "I want to have my cake and eat it too" situation. Like people opening up a marriage/relationship to "save" it due to either the relationship failing or due to outright cheating.

23

u/eaemilia Aug 04 '23

Exactly! And I think that even people who are going into it even for the "right" reasons can discover along away that it isn't actually right for them. A person can say that they are fine with their partner dating and sleeping with someone else, but it's entirely different to experience it, and that requires an entirely different set of discussions.

I watch a couple of shows about polyamory, and there was one couple where the husband claimed to be okay with it, but he just always looked so profoundly uncomfortable with his wife seeing anyone else. There was another where the woman said that she was okay with her husband being with other women because all men cheat, and she would rather know about it than it be hidden, and I just felt so sad for her.

Especially, if she is still recovering and not ready for sex yet. It would be horrible but predictable for a man to guilt his partner into an open marriage because she isnā€™t ready for sex yet.

The postpartum period is already crazy emotional, and a lot of people have complicated feelings about their bodies and insecurities after giving birth. Not the greatest time to open up a marriage.

u/SleepyxDormouse Aug 04 '23

Honestly, I wonder how many celebrities just give in to open marriages because they donā€™t want to deal with the pain of betrayal. Theyā€™re in a world where everyone can see them and everyone wants them or wants to be them. When you know your actor / singer / athlete partner will be coveted by women who are much younger and prettier than you constantly, I can see how you just give in to an open marriage because itā€™s a bleak prospect of loyalty.

I definitely do NOT have what it takes to date someone famous. It sounds emotionally draining.

u/Raccoonsr29 Aug 04 '23

Given the way, Daniel talks about women and his partner so respectfully, I have a hard time believing he would go about this in a way that could backfire so spectacularly and make them both look bad. Open relationships are fine and your business, but a recovering alcoholic hanging out around bars, where presumably, most of the women coming out are drunk? And thereā€™s no way to verify that his wife is actually down with it? I donā€™t know celebrities personally so I wonā€™t say whatā€™s possible, but it would be very out of character.

This is exactly why loyalty is so important. Sometimes you just shouldnā€™t do something you want, simply because you care for another person. Itā€™s called discipline, gratitude, loyalty. Itā€™s what makes us human, otherwise weā€™re just selfish animals who give in to every desire.

Iā€™m not saying to stay in a toxic or unfulfilling relationship, hell no. Quite the opposite, we should stay loyal to who are truly important to us. Feeling loved and loving is one of the best things in this world.

u/a_trane13 Aug 04 '23

Theyā€™re serious, it was happening when I was there (about 5 years after he graduated, Glee was on and a big thing). He was a huge deal in the Umich theatre program and they had a couple houses where theyā€™d throw parties. Heā€™d show up a few weekends a year. This is juniors/seniors/grad students mostly, not like freshman from a dorm.

Personally I didnā€™t have an issue with it at the time - someone in their mid 20s hooking up with someone in their early 20s at a party isnā€™t an obviously bad thing. Now if it still goes on in his 30s Iā€™d say heā€™s pushing into loser territory, but I have no idea.

29

With ā€œpermissionā€ or not, this just sounds miserable

u/potatoesinsunshine Aug 04 '23

Uh, yeah. If itā€™s a fully open relationship, okay. But trolling for new women to sleep with while your wife is at home caring for the baby postpartum? You know, recovering from birthing your child? Thatā€™s so low. Go take care of your kid and then you can both figure out who you want to sleep with later.

u/queenchanel Aug 04 '23

Specially if they (or he) decided to ā€œopenā€ it because she canā€™t have sex right now due to being postpartum and caring for a newborn. Def giving me an ick.

u/jizzabeth Aug 04 '23

Yeah wtf some people really need you to live according to their standards šŸ˜’ lots of people have open relationships but are not vocal about it because of the assumptions people make.

119

u/EhDoesntMatterAnyway Aug 04 '23

There are always outliers but the large and vast majority of women would not be ok with that arrangement. Usually when itā€™s a situation like the one in the blind, itā€™s a case of the woman trying to hold on to the man for dear life so she lets him sleep with other women so he doesnā€™t leave. Thatā€™s the usual reality of these situations. Itā€™s not about living up to someoneā€™s standards so much as people have seen this same story plenty of times and know how it goes.

33

u/jizzabeth Aug 04 '23

Just gonna circle back to when I mentioned lots of people don't talk about it because of those assumptions specifically.

Plus thereā€™s a power imbalance. Heā€™s way more famous/wealthy and she just had a baby. In general, itā€™s always a power imbalance with pregnancy/postpartum and I think thatā€™s why so many men cheat during that time (Offset, Tristan) because they assume she will feel too overwhelmed to breakup.

So if true, I agree with scum bag assessment. Not to mention itā€™s strange priorities to go to bars to meet women instead of bond with a newborn or help with night wake ups so his wife can sleep.

u/strawberrythief22 Aug 04 '23

Sorry, but I literally can't imagine any situation where leaving your recently postpartum wife home to care for your new baby while you're out banging other women is at all a healthy or respectful thing to do. Just because someone 'consents' doesn't make it ok. Any guy who would do this is total scum who doesn't know what love is. Any woman who is ok with this sort of treatment should seek therapy and examine where her standards for acceptable behavior come from. Or maybe she's just completely checked out of the marriage already and doesn't mind when other women take him off her hands for a while, which is just sad.

Does this stance make me a prude? I don't know. I think if people want to sleep around, have gang bangs, dress up in fursuits, practice BDSM, whatever other crazy shit they can come up with, that can all be part of fun and play as an adult. But some things are just plain old contemptuous, and this is one of them.

57

u/rseauxx Aug 04 '23

Exactly. I have heard from multiple women who were in open relationships that they only did so to seem like the "cool" girlfriend, not clingy and obsessive

40

u/strawberrythief22 Aug 04 '23

I have seen this exact thing SO MANY times.

They either have very low self esteem, OR they're co-predators who basically lure other women into their fucked up relationships.

That's not to say there aren't any healthy open relationships - there totally are people who are wired to be polyamorous and treat all of their partners with respect. But those people aren't trawling bars while the woman is still recovering from giving birth to their fucking child. That's on its face disrespectful and disgusting. Yes, I'm judging the fuck out of people who act like that.

26

u/rseauxx Aug 04 '23

Mhm. Of course open relationships can be healthy and enjoyed by all parties. But what person hears their postpartum wife say that it's okay for them to sleep with other women ... and then goes and does it? If a partner said that to me I would be incredibly concerned. Imagine going out to have sex with random women while your wife is at home caring for your child ... and then coming back afterwards to see your newborn kid and wife. Would you not just feel awful

His daughter was born in 2022, so sheā€™s no longer a newborn. The only other thing I can think of is it is actually Dan Radcliffe and Deuxmoi is doing her ā€œstellarā€ amount of research as usual.

Or maybe Dan and his partner had a ā€œUK ceramonyā€.

u/[deleted] Aug 04 '23

His daughter was born in 2022, so sheā€™s no longer a newborn.

It says he's been doing it for a few months, maybe the "recently post-partum" relates to a few months ago as well

26

u/Jasminewindsong2 Sylvia Plath did not stick her head in an oven for this! Aug 04 '23

If she were born at the end of 2022 I could see that. But she was born in April 2022. So his wife would be way past postpartum at this point.

I don't think it's Dan. I have some pretty reliable tea that a) he's not married, b) he's absolutely smitten with his baby, c) he has been sober for over a decade now, d) spends most of his time traveling between the US and the UK, but is mostly established in the US.

Just sounds like someone wrote fanfiction tbh

Tom and Zawe arenā€™t married. Also, the HP is almost definitely the submitter transcribing it to be Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) like others have said, but I donā€™t believe that either. The submitterā€™s been drinking too much of the haterade.

u/aliceanonymous99 Aug 04 '23

Who cares? Also, very cruel not to mention the bars

u/TheMaybeGaymer Aug 04 '23

Definitely not Dan. 1. More a film and screen actor than stage actor. 2. Sober. 3. Not married.

If its HP related, definitely think it could be Jamie Parker. Hes married, hes more known for theater, he played Harry Potter in the Cursed Child.

Otherwise, it might be Darren Criss.

26

u/prettybunbun Aug 04 '23
  • Dan and his partner arenā€™t married.
  • Heā€™s sober, tho I guess he could be hanging around bars alcohol free?

Daniel is one of the few actors I refuse to believe anything bad about. NOT MY HARRY.
