Arsenal defender Ben White and his wife Milly delighted fans by revealing they are expecting their first baby.
Milly posted a series of heartwarming photos on social media, including one where the couple is seen walking hand-in-hand, and another where White is lovingly placing his hand on her stomach. She captioned the post: "Half of you, half of me."
Fans flooded the comments with congratulatory messages. One wrote: "Congrats, such an exciting special time." Another commented: "Best news, so happy for you both." Others described the announcement as "so special" and shared their excitement, with one fan saying: "Eeek crying again."
The couple, both aged 27, started dating in early 2022 and quickly became inseparable. They enjoyed several luxury holidays together before White proposed just a few months later. The pair tied the knot in May 2023 in a private ceremony attended by close family and friends.
The baby announcement marks another heartwarming chapter in their lives, following their beautiful wedding earlier this year. Despite the personal joy, White has had a challenging season on the pitch. The defender has only managed **12 appearances** for Arsenal due to a knee injury that required surgery in November. He is not expected to return for several months.
When fit, White could potentially rejoin the England national team. He hasn’t played for the Three Lions since leaving the squad during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar due to personal reasons. However, newly appointed England manager Thomas Tuchel has promised to give all players a clean slate, including White. Tuchel stated: "Yes. I will reach out to him."
