Actor Athiya Shetty and Indian cricketer KL Rahul have just stepped into a beautiful new chapter of their lives — they are now proud parents to a baby girl!

The couple took to Instagram on Monday to share this joyful news with their fans and well-wishers. The announcement was simple, sweet, and full of love.

A Beautiful Instagram Announcement

On March 24, 2025, Athiya and Rahul shared the happy news with a joint post on Instagram. Instead of using many words, they let the picture speak for itself. The post featured a painting of two swans, with the gentle message: “Blessed with a baby girl.”

Though they didn’t add a caption, the picture included a tiny baby angel emoji with a halo and wings. That little symbol said it all — their baby girl had arrived safely into the world.

Fans Shower the Couple with Love

As soon as the post went live, social media was filled with excitement and love. Fans, friends, and celebrities flooded the comment section with warm wishes and congratulations.

One fan wrote, “Congrats and love and blessings to your darling little angel doll… love and more love.” Many others dropped red heart emojis and sweet notes for the new parents.

The Journey to Parenthood

This is the first child for both Athiya and Rahul. The couple had shared their pregnancy news back in November 2024 with another touching post. In that post, they wrote: “Our beautiful blessing is coming soon. 2025,” along with an image of tiny baby feet and an evil eye for protection. Athiya added a white heart emoji to keep the post simple and full of love.

From Love Story to Parenthood

Athiya Shetty, the daughter of veteran actor Suniel Shetty, met KL Rahul in January 2019 through a mutual friend. The two quickly connected and started dating. Over the years, fans watched their relationship grow stronger.

After dating for a few years, they decided to take the next step. In 2023, Athiya and Rahul tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony held at Suniel Shetty’s farmhouse in Khandala. The wedding was private, attended only by close friends and family.

Now, just two years later, the couple has welcomed their first child — a little baby girl.

A New Chapter Begins

Becoming parents is a life-changing experience, and fans of the couple are overjoyed to see Athiya and Rahul stepping into this new role with grace and happiness.

We wish the new family all the love, health, and happiness in the world as they begin this exciting new journey together. Congratulations to the proud parents!
