Tessa Virtue shares life-changing news for her and husband Morgan Rielly
Tessa Virtue, the Olympic figure skater and wife of Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly, shared some life-changing news with the world this week.
The Canadian power couple shared some photos of their beach vacation, including a little baby bump in one of the pictures, confirming that the couple is expecting their first child.
The "Congratulations" comments began to pour in the post, including from Canadian athletes Kia Nurse and Adam van Koeverden, as well as sports media personalities Scott Russell and Christine Simpson.
The couple have preferred to keep their private life low-profile, rarely sharing many posts on their social media accounts.
Rielly, 30, and Virtue, 35, got married in 2023 after first appearing in the public eye back in 2020.
Virtue retired from competitive skating shortly after the 2018 Winter Olympics, having won three gold and two silver medals in her Olympic career alongside Scott Moir, as well as seven world championship medals (three golds, three silvers and one bronze).
Since her retirement, Virtue has appeared as a commentator with Moir on CBC's 2022 Olympics coverage and made special media and charity appearances across the country.
Drafted 5th overall during the 2012 NHL Draft, Rielly has spent his entire eleven year career with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Rielly signed an eight-year, $60M deal deal with Toronto in October 2021.
Congratulations to Rielly and Virtue on the incredible news!
