Jess Redden has said she believes her pregnancy is a “gift” from her late father – as she reveals she is due on her 30th birthday.
The pharmacist announced she was expecting her first child with rugby star Rob Kearney last week. Answering a Q&A on her Instagram, she told followers she believes her baby is a “gift” from her late dad, Brian, who passed away from cancer in September 2020.
She said: “I am 15 weeks now. Baby is due around my 30th birthday in August. A birthday present from my dad, I like to think.”
