***Update: The Emmy went to Owen Cooper of the streaming series “Adolescence.”
Marblehead native Rob Delaney is up for an Emmy tonight, nominated for his role in “Dying for Sex” with Michelle Williams.
Delaney grew up in Marblehead and graduated from MHS in 1995. He has starred in several popular movies and series.
Delaney’s mom, Nancy Gwin, is rooting for her son tonight.
“I’m watching!” she texted to the Current. “Just saw him on the red carpet! Must admit, I’m a proud Mamma!”
Delaney comes home to Marblehead often. In July 2024, he hosted a fundraiser for the Marblehead Counseling Center with WBZ-TV anchor Lisa Hughes.
The two spoke about Delaney’s book, “A Heart That Works,” about the loss of his toddler son to brain cancer.
