Big surprise from tennis star Angelique Kerber on the occasion of her 35th birthday on January 18th. The pregnant athlete shared a picture of herself on her Instagram account, in which she presented her baby bump in public for the first time. In the photo, she poses in a black dress and heels in front of a bar stool while holding her stomach with her left hand. Particularly striking: her radiant smile.

Kerber wrote about the picture: "Thank you for all the birthday wishes in this special time of my life." She feels blessed to receive all of these heartwarming messages. She sends "lots of love" to all her fans. Angelique Kerber also announced the baby news in August 2022 via Instagram. At that time she wrote that she had to cancel her participation in the US Open because "two against one was simply unfair". Her future offspring will be the first child for the athlete.
