WARWICK Davis found global success as an actor and TV personality.
But behind the scenes, he is a father and husband to wife Samantha who he revealed nearly died from sepsis.
How many children does Warwick Davis have?
Warwick and his wife Samantha have two surviving children, Harrison and Annabelle.
Their first son, Lloyd, was born in 1991 with both of his parents' conditions.
Sadly, his lungs were too small to support normal function and he died at just nine days old.
They also lost another son, George when Samantha was 19 weeks pregnant she suffered a miscarriage.
Speaking about his lost children, Warwick said: “Prior to Annabelle and Harrison we had a baby boy, Lloyd, who inherited both our conditions… And that is something that proves fatal.
“It’s something that a baby won’t survive. But Lloyd, he survived for nine days, but yeah he was beautiful… but it was a tough time. And yeah, we had a stillborn too.”

Who is his wife Samantha?
Samantha Davis, 51, is an actress known for her roles in Through the Dragon's Eye, ShortFellas and Honky Sausages.
She has achondroplasia, a bone growth disorder that causes disproportionate dwarfism.
The actress was struck down by sepsis back in 2019.
Warwick exclusively told The Sun that her health dramatically declined ahead of a family caravan holiday.
She'd put all the symptoms down to over-exerting herself while she was preparing for the trip. Warwick called an out-of-hours doctor.
“By now, Sam was feeling absolutely terrible,” Warwick recalled. “She was becoming drowsy, weak and hadn’t been to the toilet in over 24 hours.
