Toronto, Canada — The curling world is celebrating a joyful new addition to the family of Canadian curling legend John Morris. The two-time Olympic gold medalist and his spouse have announced the birth of their baby girl, sharing their excitement and gratitude with fans and well-wishers.
Morris, known for his incredible achievements on the ice, including gold medals at the Vancouver 2010 and PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics, is now embracing a new role: proud father. The couple welcomed their daughter earlier this week, and both mom and baby are doing well.
In a heartfelt social media post, Morris shared a picture of the newborn’s tiny hand clasped around his finger, accompanied by the caption: “The greatest gift we could ever ask for. Welcome to the world, little one.” The post quickly garnered thousands of likes and congratulatory messages from fellow athletes, fans, and curling enthusiasts around the world.
We are over the moon and feel so blessed,” Morris said in a brief statement. “Our little girl has already brought so much joy to our lives, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for our family.”
Morris’s announcement adds a personal highlight to a year that has been full of professional achievements and transitions. Known for his fierce competitiveness and strategic brilliance on the ice, Morris has been a beloved figure in Canadian sports for over two decades. Now, his focus will shift from sweeping stones to late-night diaper changes, as he and his spouse adjust to life as new parents.
Fans of the curling star have eagerly joined in the celebrations, with many taking to social media to share their well-wishes and express their excitement for the new chapter in Morris’s life. Fellow curlers have also chimed in, with some humorously suggesting that the little one might just be a future curling champion in the making.
As Morris embraces fatherhood, his fans will be eagerly awaiting his return to the ice, but for now, all eyes are on the newest, and tiniest, member of the Morris family. Congratulations to John Morris and his spouse on their wonderful new addition!
