Congratulations to Brittney Griner and her wife, Cherelle Griner, on the arrival of their baby boy on July 8. Brittney shared the joyful news during an appearance on CBS Sports’ show “We Need to Talk,” expressing her amazement and love for her son. Reflecting on her new role as a parent, Brittney noted how her priorities shifted instantly upon seeing her child.

Brittney, who gained international attention following her 2022 arrest in Russia for cannabis possession, is set to compete in the Summer Olympics in Paris as part of the U.S. women’s national basketball team. Despite the bittersweet feeling of having to leave for the Olympics, she believes her son will understand.

In April, the couple announced their pregnancy with an Instagram post featuring an ultrasound picture and a caption expressing their excitement. The post celebrated their anticipation of becoming parents and the upcoming arrival of their “favorite human being.”
