Inside Colin Farrell's family life with his two sons after actor shared he is putting his disabled son James, 21, in long term care


Colin Farrell revealed on Friday that he is planning on putting his adult disabled son into a long-term care facility as he opened up about his condition.

The Phone Booth actor previously discussed his first-born son's condition and said medical advice was sought after James missed developmental milestones and struggled to sit up or crawl as a baby. Angelman syndrome is also characterized by seizures, which Colin - who also shares son Henry Tadeusz, 15, with Polish actress Alicja Bachleda-Curus, 41 - said is 'one of the things that parents struggle with greatly'. A child with Angelman syndrome will begin to show signs of delayed development at around six to 12 months of age, such as being unable to sit unsupported or make babbling noises.
