FORMER Fiji 7s, Fiji Bati and American Football League player Jarryd Hayne is now a proud father after the birth of his daughter in Gold Coast, Australia.
The 28-year-old posted a photo of him and his baby daughter on Instagram.
“All praise to God above, for He never makes mistakes!,” he wrote on his Instagram account.
The news was also reported on Australian media.
NRL player Jarryd Hayne has become a father for the first time, with Amellia Bonnici giving birth to their child in recent days. The pair, who found out they were expecting a baby after only having met on Instagram, welcomed a baby girl into the world “a few days ago. Sources say the couple are “elated” and “besotted” with the new arrival,” the Daily Telegraph website reported.
Meanwhile, Fiji National Rugby League chief executive officer Timoci Naleba congratulated Hayne for the new addition in the family.
“We wish him all the best for becoming a father,” he said.
“I am sure he has more to play for now.
“He has been associated with the Fiji National Rugby League in the past and it is good to see him becoming a father.”
