Manchester City star Jack Grealish and his girlfriend Sasha Attwood are expecting their first child together, they announced on Sunday.ย
The pair, both 28, are childhood sweethearts and met when they were just 16 years old.ย
Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Jack shared a picture of himself holding Sashaโs growing baby bump to break the news.ย
โLifeโs biggest blessing,โ the England footballer captioned the post, while Sasha wrote: โHalf of me, half of you โ beyond blessed.โ
Jackโs current and former teammates were quick to congratulate the pair on their happy news, including Harry Kane, Harry Maguire and Ollie Watkins.
Sashaย and Jack are childhood sweethearts with the model supporting the footballer throughout his career since they got together at the age of 16.
Her career has seen her advertise for brands including LโOreal, House of Fraser, Pretty Little Thing and Boohoo.ย
The couple have had more quality time together in recent weeks after a difficult season for Jack in which he suffered several injuries before missing out on theย England squad for Euro 2024.ย
Sasha proudly gushed over Jack following Manchester Cityโs Premier League win in May as she shared a loved-up snap.
The model took to Instagram to post the doting picture which saw the couple pose on the football pitch moments after their win.
While the childhood sweethearts tend to keep their relationship on the down low, Sasha couldnโt help but show off Jack. She captioned her post: โChampions X4. What a team, so proud!โ
The couple went through a difficult time over Christmas after their Cheshire mansion was raided for ยฃ1million worth of jewellery by thieves on Boxing Day while his family were inside.
The footballer spoke of his devastation over the โtraumaticโ incident which left his loved ones terrified, as he insisted their safety is his number one priority.
Sasha was with his family watching Jackโs match at their home and hit a panic button when the burglars struck.
It is thought 10 relatives โ including Sasha, his parents, two sisters and brother โ were at the property at the time of the burglary.
Sharing a picture of himself with his dog, Jack addressed the incident for the first time on Instagram on Sunday, describing the incident as โtraumaticโ.ย
Jackโs family were forced to run and hide for cover inside the ยฃ5.6million mansion that Jack only moved into before Christmas, while police told neighbours to lock their doors and stay in their homes.
Police, fearing they could face a potential hostage situation, rushed to the scene and even had a helicopter search the area, but the offenders were able to escape with ยฃ1million worth of jewellery.
Sasha was left โterrifiedโ by the Boxing Day raid โ and no longer feels safe on her own in the property, sources told MailOnline.ย
