In news that will warm the hearts of all rugby league fans, Teigan and Alex McKinnon have announced the birth of their first child, a daughter named Harriet Anne.
Alex McKinnon had his NRL career cut short in 2014 when he suffered a horrific neck injury during a match against the Melbourne Storm.
The incident left McKinnon a quadriplegic. Since the injury, McKinnon married his partner Teigan. On Monday the pair announced their great news to the world.
Teigan posted a family snap on her Instagram account which she captioned: "When 2 became 3."
