Claire Danes and husband Hugh Dancy have received an extra special early Christmas gift. The couple welcomed their first child – a baby boy.

Danes gave birth to son, Cyrus Michael Christopher Dancy, on Monday.

It’s been a great year for the Homeland star; she was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Golden Globe for her performance on the hit show.

Danes, 33, and British actor Dancy, 37, married in France in 2009.
