Colin Morgan was born in Armagh, Northern Ireland. He is the son of Bernard, a painter and decorator, and Bernadette, a nurse. He has one older brother named Neil. Raised in a Roman Catholic family, Colin grew up during The Troubles, a period of conflict in Northern Ireland. He has spoken about how this turbulent environment marked his childhood, including incidents such as waking up during the night due to nearby pipe bomb attacks and needing written excuses for school when it was too dangerous to leave home.
Despite the challenges of his upbringing, Morgan developed an interest in acting at an early age. He joined a local amateur dramatic society to nurture his passion, as opportunities to pursue a performing arts career were scarce in his hometown. He is a vegetarian, lactose intolerant, and chooses to maintain a low profile by avoiding social media. Although there are rumors suggesting he might be privately married, no confirmed details of his marital status have been disclosed.
Colin Morgan trained at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow and graduated in 2007. That same year, he made his West End debut in the title role of Vernon God Little, adapted from the novel by DBC Pierre. His performance received critical acclaim and marked an auspicious start to his professional career.
Morgan went on to appear in several notable London theatre productions, including Pedro Almodóvar's Todo Sobre Mi Madre and A Prayer for My Daughter by Thomas Babe. His early stage work demonstrated his range and helped establish him as a rising talent in British theatre.
