Naomi Osaka just announced she’s expecting her first child and everyone was so thrilled

Congratulations to Naomi Osaka

Naomi Osaka has been through so much over the last few years. She’s seen very high highs like when she lit the torch at the Tokyo Olympics. We’ve also seen her hit lows that have been so hard that she needed to step away from tennis.

She’s just been searching for her happiness and it’s hard not to root her on throughout her journey.

On Wednesday, though, she gave everyone something new to cheer for. Osaka took to Twitter to officially announce that she’ll be on a hiatus from tennis once again.

The reason why is awesome, though. It’s because she’s pregnant with her first child.

“These few months away from the sport 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, everyday is a new blessing and adventure. I know that I have so much to look forward to in the future, the one thing I’m looking forward to is my kid to watch one of my matches and tell someone, “that’s my mom,” haha.”

What an incredible way to announce such incredible news. Good for Naomi, man. She continued to say she’ll be out of tennis for the next year and will return for the Australian Open in 2024.

Everyone skipped past that part, though. Mostly because the entire internet was so thrilled for her.

WATCH: Hope Solo announces she is pregnant with twins

Former U.S. Women’s National Team goalkeeper Hope Solo made a heartwarming announcement Tuesday.

Former U.S. Women’s National Team goalkeeper Hope Solo made a heartwarming announcement Tuesday. Solo and her husband are expecting twins, one boy, and one girl.

“My husband and I get to practice equality from the very beginning with one boy and one girl,” Solo said on beINSPORTSUSA. “Miniature soccer team on the way.”

The pregnancy announcement comes after the 38-year-old opened up to Elle magazine about her miscarriage in 2018. At the time of the miscarriage, Solo was running for president of the U.S. Soccer Federation and she “was hours from dying,” she said.

Following the miscarriage, Solo learned that she had been pregnant with twins then and one was ectopic. The abnormal location of one of the first twins led to Solo having one of her fallopian tubes removed. She began in vitro fertilization following the miscarriage.
