Former India star cricketer and 2011 Wolrd Cup match winner Yuvraj Singh and his wife Hazel Keech revealed the name of their baby boy on the occasion of Fathers’ Day. The couple has named their child ‘Orion Keech Singh’.
Tweeting about the development on Twitter, ”Welcome to the world Orion Keech Singh. Mummy and Daddy love their little ”puttar”. Your eyes twinkle with every smile just as your name is written amongst the stars.”
Yuvraj and Keech also explained the meaning behind their baby boy's name.
“Orion is a star constellation and for parents, your kid is your star. When Hazel was pregnant, and sleeping in the hospital, I was watching some episodes where the name came to me and Hazel took an instant liking to it. I wanted Hazel’s last name also to come in the baby’s name, so that’s how it came about,” he reveals. He goes on to share that his happiness knew no bounds when he first got to know that Hazel was pregnant. “We had been trying for a while to have a baby but it didn’t happen. Hazel was four months pregnant when she left for England, and just when I had to go, I got Covid, so I had to quarantine for two weeks before I could see her,” Yuvraj said.
Yuvraj and Hazel had tied the knot on November 30, 2016, in two grand ceremonies. However, it was Yuvraj's grand entry on a motorbike that is still afresh in everyone's memory. Since then, their fans have been eagerly waiting for the couple to share the special news. The newbie parents had also sent baby hampers announcing the arrival of their 'Junior Singh'.
On June 19, 2022, Yuvraj took to his Instagram handle and posted two pictures. In the first picture, Yuvraj and Hazel posed with their son, who was curled in his mommy's arm. The second picture gave a full glimpse of the couple's baby as they kissed him. Alongside it, Yuvraj announced the name of his newborn baby, 'Orion Keech Singh'. He wrote: "Welcome to the world Orion Keech Singh with every smile just as your name is written amongst the stars."
Hazel also took to her Instagram handle and posted an adorable picture of their son sleeping on his daddy's tummy. Along with it, Hazel penned a note and wished her hubby, Yuvraj on being a perfect daddy, who knows how to feed, change the nappy and rock the baby to sleep. She wrote: "Happy first Fathers Day to you @yuvisofficial You’ve dreamt of this day since before we even met, now here you are, a burping, bottle feeding, nappy-changing, rocking-baby-to-sleep Papa with all the sleep deprivation and vomit that comes along with the giggles, smiles and joy. You’re a great hands-on dad and I'm proud of the effort you make, always trying your best."
