Former NFL star Colin Kaepernick and his longtime girlfriend, DJ Nessa Diab, welcome their first child together. Although the baby was born some weeks ago, the news wasn’t shared until Sunday night.
Diab posted the bundle of joy on her Instagram before hitting the black carpet at the MTV VMAs. The black and white post featured her and Kaepernick holding the baby on a hospital bed with full smiles.
If not for the VMAs organized by MTV, fans wouldn’t have known that Nessa Diab and Colin Kaepernick had already welcomed their first child. The DJ and MTV host disclosed that she had to think long enough before letting the world in on the news.
This was deduced from her caption, which says:
“I thought long and hard about sharing our life-changing news today”
Diab confirmed that she decided to share the news at the event because it’ll be her first time stepping out with a new life title – MOM!
Nessa Diab Shares News of First Child At The MTV VMAs
Nessa Diab only announced that she and Colin Kaepernick welcomed their first child. She didn’t disclose more details, including the date of birth, name, or sex of the baby. The star talked about her journey after delivery even though she said she had promised not to share anything earlier.
According to her, recovery after childbirth has been a journey. Diab also referred to her hubby as the most amazing dad. She was grateful that he was by her side every moment of the journey. Before Colin Kaepernick and Nessa Diab welcomed their child, they started dating in 2015. However, they are yet to walk down the aisle.
At the VMAs, she promised to connect with her fans over the “mom experience” even though the news of the baby’s arrival didn’t make it to social media.
During the pre-show for the event, Diab asked for clues on being a great parent. She got some interesting answers from attendees, including J Balvin, who told her that the best advice for parenthood is that there’s no advice.
