The couple are already parents and previously welcomed their daughter Samaira in 2018. Indeed, they have not officially revealed or shared this news with fans and netizens across social media platforms. Rohit had opted for paternity leave as he wanted to be there with his wife Ritika, – as a pillar of strength and support. It also means his training and preparation responsibilities in Australia with the entire team for the awaited cricket match of the Border-Gavaskar trophy are on pause right now.
Rohit and Ritika welcome their second child:
Indian cricket legend and captain Rohit Sharma – with his wife Ritika Sajdeh – have embarked on a new phase of life as they became parents for the second time. The couple is joyous with the arrival of their munchkin baby boy on November 15, as per news reports. Moreover, this couple, who are already parents to their six-year-old daughter Samaira since 2018, have not yet announced this official news with their ardent fans and supporters on social media. Besides taking paternity leave to be present with his wife Ritika, the power couple managed to keep this news out of the public eye for a long time.
The big news has been disclosed recently amidst constant conjecture and rumour mills filled with the cricketer’s likely absence for the first Test match in Perth. As the couple basks in love with the arrival of their newest family member, it will be interesting enough to see if Rohit will be able to rejoin the team in time for the series opener. Even if his unavailability could create issues for the Indian cricket team during the test match, the happiness of turning over a new leaf as parents for a second time gets more weightage at the moment.
