The couple shared a heartwarming video on social media of their gender reveal party, surrounded by friends and family. The video was captioned: "LITTLE FAB IT’S COMING!! we are delighted to announce that we are expecting our baby boy, Israel."

The midfielder is expected to join up with the squad this weekend as they fly out to the far east for their pre-season tour. They'll face Manchester United and Crystal Palace before returning to Europe to face RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg.
Following the announcement, team-mate Jordan Henderson and Julia Vigas, the wife of fellow midfielder Thiago, were among those to share their messages of support to celebrate the news.
Fabinho isn't the only Liverpool star to share a big announcement this week, as forward Diogo Jota announced his engagement to partner and childhood sweetheart Rute Cardoso. The Portuguese international shared the news via Twitter on Friday evening.
Jota, 25, joined the Reds from Premier League side Wolves in 2020 and has so far scored 34 goals in his 85 appearances for the club. Last season alone, he scored 21 goals and registered eight assists in all competitions.
