Messages of congratulations have been pouring in from across the country after Kilkenny hurling legend TJ Reid and his wife, Limerick woman Niamh de Brún-Reid, announced they are expecting their second child.
The couple shared the happy news in a novel and heartwarming way. Barefoot and beaming, they stood before a white wall before painting the words: “Baby Due 2025." Watching on was their daughter Harper, who will celebrate her third birthday in November.
"Pre-season is well and truly underway for Harper in her new role as big sister! We feel so grateful to be growing our family #BabyReid," wrote Niamh, a lifestyle and content creator originally from the Ennis Road, Limerick, on Instagram.
