Continued congratulations are in order for Naomi Osaka and her rapper boyfriend Cordae, as the couple is expecting a baby girl! As The Shade Room previously reported, Osaka revealed her pregnancy in January.
Osaka took to Instagram on Friday to share the update with her fans. The tennis player shared a carousel of five photos, and in the first, she can be seen standing in front of a sign that says, “A little princess is on the way.”
Additional photos show Cordae alongside Osaka. In the last picture, the father-to-be is seen kissing her growing baby bump.
Osaka’s caption consisted of a blushing smiley face and multicolored heart emojis.
“☺️🤍💜”
Shortly after Osaka shared the carousel of photos, Cordae reshared her post on his Instagram Story. He also added a brief caption.
“#GirlDad”
As The Shade Room previously reported, Osaka gave fans a first look at her growing baby bump in March.
On January 11, the 25-year-old revealed the initial news via another photo carousel on Instagram. The first photo featured a picture of Osaka’s sonogram, followed by a screenshot of a message she’d written.
In the message, she explained that the “past few years have been interesting to say the least.” However, she finds the “most challenging times” to be “the most fun.” She then explained that since taking a pause from tennis, she’s realized that “life is so short.”
Additionally, she explained that she doesn’t want to “take any moments for granted.” With this in mind, Osaka shared that she knows she has “so much to look forward to in the future,” and one of those things will be the “lessons” of motherhood.
Furthermore, she ended the note with a brief piece of advice.
“Sidenote : I don’t think there’s a perfectly correct path to take in life but I always felt that if you move forward with good intentions you’ll find your way eventually.”
We continue to send our best wishes and congratulations to Naomi Osaka and Cordae as they await the arrival of their baby girl!
