On Friday, November 8, Indian cricketer KL Rahul and his Bollywood actress wife Athiya Shetty made a joyous announcement on Instagram about expecting the arrival of their first child in 2025. The collaborative post from the married couple about the delightful update on social media sparked a plethora of congratulatory messages from who’s who of the cricket and film industry apart from their fans on the Instagram platform and elsewhere.
For the unversed, KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty got married on January 23, 2023, at the actress’ father Suniel Shetty’s farmhouse in Khandala, Maharashtra, in a beautiful wedding ceremony. The couple had dated each other for several years before tying the knot in an intimate setting with family and friends early last year, and now, they are blessed with the impending arrival of their first child next year.
Our beautiful blessing is coming soon, 2025: KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty
The announcement post of the first child by KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty had a beautiful design featuring golden stars, protective evil eye symbol, tiny baby footprints, and “Athiya & Rahul” signature at the bottom. It was accompanied by the message, “Our beautiful blessing is coming soon, 2025,” which led to the fans and well-wishers reacting quite emotionally on Instagram, giving them all the love during the joyous time of their lives.
Moreover, KL Rahul is currently in Australia, playing for India A against Australia A in the second unofficial Test match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The right-handed batter was dismissed cheaply in both the innings, and India A are currently in a tough spot with just 11 runs with just five wickets in hand at the close of play on day two, needing some good contributions from the lower order with the bat to thwart Australia A’s charge towards yet another win.
