Vanessa Kirby has finally embraced motherhood.
The 37-year-old actress’ longtime partner, Paul Rabil, took to Instagram to announce the birth of their first child.
Rabil, a former professional lacrosse player, posted a series of photos, which opened with a snap of him holding his blanket-wrapped baby close to his chest.
Another snap showed Kirby and their newborn child as the duo lay together in bed.
The post was accompanied by a heartfelt caption that read: “I’m learning that becoming a parent slows you down and wakes you up at the same time.”
“That I’m really thankful for everyone’s health, that I can wake up every day to mom’s immense love, and that we have you in our lives now,” he added.
Referring to the final image of two miniature lacrosse sticks in the carousel, Rabil ended the caption by writing, “For your first cradle stick. It will contain many stories and blessings. Probably broken windows too. Balls are allowed in the house.”
He also posted the lacrosse sticks photo with a white heart emoji on his Instagram stories.
It is pertinent to mention that Kirby and Rabil went public with their relationship in November 2023 after sparking dating rumors in 2022.
