Heart-throb Colin Farrell has opened up about his son’s disability, admitting: “He understands a lot of magical things”.
The Hollywood star’s son James has Angelman Syndrome, which causes physical and intellectual disabilities.
And Colin says that the 10-year-old’s rare syndrome, which affected only one-in-25 thousand children, means he has a unique way of seeing the world.
He said: “James’ way of processing the world is very peculiar, which is one of the beautiful things about him.

“His cognitive capability is such that he understands a lot of magical and interesting things that I just don’t.”
Previously the Dublin actor admitted he came close to breaking down after watching James walk for the first time.
He said: “When James took his first steps at age four, I nearly broke in half! My ex Kim Bordenave and I share in the smallest victories.”
The Total Recall star is also father to son Henry, three, with ex Alicja Bachleda-Curus.
