“It is with great excitement that we present our son Xander.”
It was on August 1 that Jennifer Abel and David Lemieux introduced their newborn son on social media. Little Xander is almost three months old now!
“Hello everyone, it is with great enthusiasm that we present you our son Xander,” could be read in the legend under the publication of the boxer.
Let’s remember that it was on Mother’s Day, that Jennifer Abel announced the birth of her son on her Instagram page. The Olympic athlete posted an adorable photo of his little family!
“In my life, I have often heard people say congratulations. Congratulations on your great performance, congratulations on your new record. For the past week, I have been congratulated on my new role as a mom and I can tell you that I have never been more proud to hear that word. On this Mother’s Day, I would like to congratulate all the moms for your unconditional love and dedication. I take this opportunity to introduce you to the one who gave me the most beautiful title in the world Xander Lemieux,” read the caption under the publication.
Recall that last February, the diver announced that she was retiring to start a family, in a letter to the little Jennifer Label. She wrote: “Before you, there were few mixed-race girls in diving. Maybe because they were told like you that black girls are in track and field or basketball, not in the pool. But you, your dream was to dive,” it read.
“The curtain has fallen. These Tokyo Olympics were my fourth and last. The Olympic journey has been fabulous. I started it at the age of 16, when I barely realized what was happening to me. I’m finishing it at the dawn of my 30th birthday, fully aware of the path I’ve taken”, she had shared following the announcement of her retirement.
