Vanessa Kirby’s fiancé finally confirms the birth of their first baby

Vanessa Kirby’s fiancé Paul Rabil has finally confirmed the birth of their first baby via a social media post.

The Crown star and a former professional player, who have become parents for the first time, have given a peek into their private life as the couple are seen navigating the early days of parenting first child.

Interestingly, the American sports star reflected on the joyous chapter of his life of becoming a father in a series of pictures shared on Instagram on October 19.

In one of the images, Vanessa could be seen lying across a bed on her tummy, her gaze fixed tenderly on their newborn resting before her.

Another photo featured Paul cradling the infant in a soft blue blanket, while a close-up showed the baby's tiny feet.

The final photo showcased two lacrosse sticks – one full-sized and one junior – hinting at the baby’s sporting heritage.

“I'm learning that becoming a parent slows you down and wakes you up at the same time,” wrote the 39-year-old in a heartwarming caption.

Expressing his happiness, Vanessa’s fiancé said, “I'm really grateful for everyone's health, that I get to wake up every day to mum's enormous love, and that we get to have you in our lives now.”

“For your first cradle stick. It'll hold many stories and blessings. Likely broken windows too. Balls are allowed in the house,” quipped Paul in the end.

It is pertinent to mention that the couple have not yet disclosed the baby’s name or gender.

Meanwhile, the Napoleon actress announced her pregnancy by showing off her baby bump at a Fantastic Four photo-call back in June.
