This will be the boxing champion’s first child, but her husband’s fourth.
Laila Ali and her husband, former NFL star wide receiver Curtis Conway, are expecting their first child together, the boxer confirms exclusively to Essence magazine.
“I don’t know yet if we are having a boy or a girl, but I’m excited that I have a little life inside me that my husband and I created,” Ali says in the May issue, which is set to hit newsstands April 11.
Ali, a boxing champ who was a contestant on Dancing with the Stars and who also co-hosts American Gladiators, and Conway wed last July in the rose garden of the Ritz-Carlton in Marina del Rey, California, according to PEOPLE.
Among the 200 guests at the couple’s wedding were Ali’s parents, boxing great Muhammad Ali and Veronica Porsche Anderson, along with her sister Hana Ali, a bridesmaid.
This is the first child for Ali, but fourth for Conway, who has twin sons, Kelton and Cameron, 13, and a daughter Leilani, 9.
“I am 100 percent undeniably happy,” Ali tells ESSENCE. “I’ve never been able to say that before.”
