Tim Tebow is going to be a dad!

The retired NFL star and former Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Tebow announced they are expecting on January 14. “Baby Tebow,” the couple captioned a sweet video on Instagram. In the announcement, a glowing Demi-Leigh showed off her bump in a chic white maxi dress, while Tebow, dressed in a crisp white suit jacket and khakis, draped sonogram photos over her shoulder as they celebrated the happy news.

“We are just so excited and so over the moon to be having a baby together," Demi-Leigh told People in an exclusive interview. “We are honored for the privilege of getting the responsibility and the joy of being mom and dad," Tebow added.

The Tebows have formed a solid team since they met in 2018 and tied the knot in 2020. Now, five years later, 29-year-old Demi-Leigh and 37-year-old Tebow are looking forward to taking their “deep friendship” to the next level. “I’m so grateful because I just couldn’t imagine a better life partner to do life with first and foremost,” Demi-Leigh shared. “To be able to raise a little tiny human being together. I’m so grateful that Tim is my husband… that we get to do parenting together.”

Now 16 weeks along, Demi-Leigh says she’s “feeling a lot better" compared to her first trimester, which she admits “wasn’t super fun” at the time. “The amount of tiredness that you feel is just unfathomable,” she said. “I have loved being pregnant… I have gained an absolute new respect for moms, especially moms that are working.” She credits being “gracious” to herself, “knowing that this is the most important thing that my body can do right now.”

Our congratulations to the soon-to-be Tebow family of three!
