Naomi Osaka Announces Pregnancy
Back in January, the 25-year-old four-time Grand Slam singles champion revealed she and Cordae were expecting a child.
“The past few years have been interesting to say the least, but I find that it’s the most challenging times in life that may be the most fun,” she wrote in a message on Twitter. “These few months away from the sport [tennis] has really given me a new love and appreciation for the game I’ve dedicated my life to. I realize that life is so short and I don’t take any moments for granted. Every day is a new blessing and adventure.”
She continued: “I know that I have so much to look forward to in the future. One thing I’m looking forward to is for my kid to watch one of my matches and tell someone, ‘That’s my mom.’ 2023 will be a year that’ll be full of lessons for me and I hope I’ll see you guys in the start of the nest one ’cause I’ll be at Aus 2024. Love you all infinitely.”
Last month, the couple hosted a baby shower.
