The Grantchester actor welcomed his son with ex-wife Vanya Seager
Robson Green balances a busy filming schedule with his dual roles on Grantchesterand , but away from the cameras, the actor's number one priority is his son, Taylor Seager-Green. Robson, 58, shares his only child with his ex-wife, Vanya Seager, whom he was married to from 2001 to 2013, and according to his official website, the TV star has an "extremely close" relationship with Taylor.
As the biography section on his site reveals, "Father and son are extremely close, which is essential for Robson." Find out more about their father-son bond...
Who is Robson Green's son, Taylor?
Born on 29th April 2000, Taylor is now 23 years old, and while Robson prefers to keep his relationship with his son off of social media, he has posted one childhood photo of Taylor on his website which shows the pair at Delta Force Paintball in Surrey in 2010.
The sweet snap was taken for Taylor's tenth birthday party where the father-son duo took part in some paintballing – no doubt with some jovial rough and tumble and competitiveness. Both Robson and Taylor looked to be having a fantastic time while they smiled for a photo alongside one of the team members at Delta Force.
Some years earlier, Robson took his son Taylor, then only three years old, along to a glitzy film premiere for a night out at the movies. In this photo, Robson is carrying little Taylor as they smile for a professional photo at the red carpet premiere of the Disney film, , released in 2003.
Everything Robson Green has said about his son
Additionally, the actor has also spoken about Taylor in interviews, albeit rarely. Back in 2013, Robson spoke to about his divorce from Taylor's mum Vanya, explaining their reasons for separating, as well as his approach to being a dad.

"Ok, maybe it is being away all the time, maybe it's not being the greatest husband in the world, but by default that does not make you a bad father," he said. "But I try to keep my side of the street clean and I am a good dad. You get to the point where you may be great as individuals but you're not great for one another. I've had to explain that to Taylor."
Speaking candidly to Reader's Digest in 2016, Robson also detailed a frightening near-death experience that occurred during filming on . Recalling the spine-chilling experience, the 58-year-old explained that his thoughts went straight to his son.
"We were filming on an 82-foot trawler in the Brooks Peninsula in Canada for Extreme Fishing with Robson Green when the storm we hit turned into a Force 10 hurricane," he said. "Now, I'm not a religious man, but for 36 hours I talked to The Almighty and begged him to get us home safely. I thought I'd never see my son Taylor again.
"I was so sick it felt like I'd brought up every organ of my body. It was a living hell; nothing will ever come close to that horrendous experience. Some of the crew who worked on that boat have never stepped back on board."
On a lighthearted note, in 2019, Robson – who loves nothing more than being outdoors – revealed Taylor's epic birthday present to him. Asked what the most expensive thing he'd ever bought was, the father-of-one told The Guardian: "Fireworks. I was given a pyrotechnics course by my son for my 40th birthday, so I do displays. I can average five to 10 grand on one display."
