Parker appeared in good spirits as she cradled little James in her arms.
“I’m very well,” she told the waiting crowd.
Then, showing a little of her trademark humor, she added, “Thanks for caring. It must be a slow news week.”
The newborn weighed 6 pounds, 8 ounces and was given a name with special meaning to the family. James was named after Broderick’s late father, James Broderick, an actor who starred in the 1970s television series Family.
A rare night out with Mom and Dad
Today, James is 23 years old, and a recent appearance alongside his famous parents quickly got people talking.
On October 18, 2026, Parker, 61, and her husband, actor Matthew Broderick, 64, attended the opening night of the Broadway revival Other Desert Cities at New York’s Hudson Theatre.
Broadway is familiar territory for the longtime couple, but this time, there was someone else beside them.
Their 23-year-old son, James.
