Sanya Richards-Ross is officially a mom of three!
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star revealed on Tuesday, July 1, that she and her husband, retired NFL player Aaron Ross, have welcomed their third child together.
“He’s here!” she said in an Instagram Stories video.
In the clip, Sanya held her newborn while her oldest son Aaron Jr. beamed beside her in a hospital bed.
The new arrival joins big brothers Aaron, 7, and Asani, who is nearly 19 months old.
Richards-Ross and Ross first announced they were expecting their third child in February with a joint Instagram post celebrating her 40th birthday.
The pair dressed in Coming to America-inspired looks, with Sanya wearing a black and gold gown featuring a sheer panel to show off her baby bump.
“40 + 1. I knew this birthday would be special but this was A LOT more than I could have imagined,” Richards-Ross captioned the post. “On this birthday and my 15 YEAR ANNIVERSARY… @rossboy31 and I will be adding one more little prince or princess to our crew.”
She continued, “I’m about to be a Mommi of THREEEEEE AHHHHHHH!!!!”
Sanya has previously spoken about her fertility journey. During Season 14 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, she shared the devastating experience of suffering a miscarriage nearly two months into a pregnancy.
“Everything was fine at my five-week checkup, but when I back to Dr. Jackie for my seven-week checkup, she told me that the baby wasn’t growing and it looked like it was no longer a viable pregnancy,” she said in a confessional
“I was rushed off in an ambulance to the hospital. I lost so much blood that I had to get a blood transfusion,” she continued. “Especially not having Ross there, being by myself, it was really, really hard.”
