Rodger Corser and Renae Berry: Meet our little Budd

This much longed for baby’s brave mum beat cancer to have him.

Rodger Corser strokes the face of the baby boy he cradles in his arms. “Hey Buddy,” he says in the softest of whispers, as his son looks up at him all wide-eyed and solemn. “How are you, mate?”Z

Action hero on the small screen he may be, but when the cameras stop rolling on his hit adrenalin-packed series Rush, Rodger can’t get enough of domestic life with his actress wife Renae Berry and their gorgeous new baby, Budd Kenlie Frederick Corser.

This is the baby Renae, who beat cancer almost five years ago, and former Underbelly star Rodger once feared they’d never have.

“He does seem like a miracle baby,” Rodger reflects, adding, “He’s pretty perfect in every way. I know I have to cherish all the different stages because they’re only this small for a very short amount of time.”

And little Budd certainly made quite an entrance into the world. After 24 hours at the hospital, with her contractions progressing steadily, Renae was suddenly rushed into the operating theatre for an emergency caesarean. “They were fearful that my uterus may rupture, so it did end up being a little bit dramatic towards the end there,” she reveals.
