In recent Colin news: Farrell revealed in an interview with the Irish Independent newspaper that his four-year-old son, James, has Angelman Syndrome, a genetic condition that’s characterized by severe developmental disabilities, seizures, speech and motor difficulties — plus smiling and laughing.

Of his son, Farrell is quoted as saying, “The only time I’m reminded that there is something different about him — that he has some deviation of what is perceived to be normal — is when I see him with other four-year-olds. Then I go ‘oh yeah’ and it comes back to me. But from day one I felt that he’s the way he’s meant to be.”
