The Murray's announce child number 2

Quote

From the BBC

Tennis star Andy Murray says he and his wife, Kim Sears, are "very happy" to be expecting their second child.

The couple, who married in 2015, already have a one-year-old daughter, Sophia.

The news come as the 30-year-old prepares for his opening match at Wimbledon on Monday as defending champion.

He told reporters: "We're both obviously very happy and looking forward to it."

The world number one also confirmed he was fit to play following his recent hip injury, saying: "It's felt much better the last few days."

Asked if the news of the baby on the way would put any extra pressure on him going into the tournament, he said: "No, I wouldn't have thought so."

He said family life was "certainly not a distraction in the slightest".

Regarding his wife, Murray added: "She'll be coming to Wimbledon. And we found out a while ago. But I'm not interested in discussing the dates of that in here."

Andy and Kim were married in Murray's home town of Dunblane in April 2015 and their daughter Sophia was born in February 2016.

The world number one has spoken about how his family is the most important thing in his life and he has said becoming a husband and father has helped his tennis

Wonderful news! Smile   Not all that surprising really since most couples have a gap of about two years between their children, so end of December I would think.  But my goodness, what a time to make the announcement unless somebody spilled the beans and they had no option but to.

Edited the 1st post, not having the daily fail as a news source....

Anyway, this is wonderful news for them both. Andy has said in the past that he missed out on his Daughter's milestones (first steps, first words etc) so I wonder if he'll be adamant not to miss out this time, which of course might mean leaving the tour sooner rather than later.

It didn't seem to affect Federer, and Novak's wife is also expecting a 2nd so only time will tell I guess.

^ And I've edited mine because It quoted your first post!  Much more preferable to hear the news from the Beeb and to read what Andy has to say.
