Naomi Osaka is back on Instagram and she's giving us a glimpse into her new life as a mom. On Thursday, July 14, the four-time Grand Slam singles champion shared the first look at her daughter Shai, whom she welcomed with rapper Cordai.
"Well that was a cool little intermission, now back to your regularly scheduled program," Osaka captioned her post. The slideshow of photos included a sweet moment with Shai in her lap, a candid shot of her looking down at her baby bump, a shot from her pink-themed baby shower, and more.
Sources confirmed to People that Osaka and her newborn "are doing well," and over the weekend, her boyfriend even revealed the baby's name while performing at Canada's Calgary Stampede.
Back in April, Osaka opened up about her pregnancy journey, citing her "great support system" along the way. Despite the challenges, she seemed to remain excited for her return to tennis and the thought of having her kid cheering her on in the stands.
"I can't wait to have my kid in the stands at tournaments," she told People. "I feel like having them there watching will be extra motivation."
It's evident that Osaka is overjoyed to be a mom, and we can't wait to see her back on the court and Shai cheering her on in the stands.
