Anushka and I look forward to parenthood: Virat Kohli

The Indian cricketer and wife are expecting their first child in January 2021

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have been “over the moon” ever since they came to know about “the third member joining the clan,” reported The Indian Express. The duo announced that it is expecting a baby due sometime in January just last week.

In a recent interview, the Indian skipper and captain of IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) talked about the feeling of becoming a father. Kohli also mentioned how he got to spend good time with the Bollywood starlet during lockdown.

Talking about embracing parenthood on RCB’s YouTube show Bold Diaries, Kohli said, “It is an incredible feeling. It puts things into perspective for you. It is difficult to describe how you feel, but when we found it, we were over the moon. The kind of love that was showered on us when we announced it was amazing. People were genuinely so emotional and happy for us. We are looking forward to the third member joining the clan.”

The would-be parents recently celebrated news of the pregnancy with RCB players. They cut a cake as everyone congratulated them.

Sharma and Kohli spent the longest time together during the lockdown. From playing cricket on their terrace to binge-watching shows, their social media posts were proof that the two made the most of the time.

“We never got so much time to spend together ever since we started dating each other. This is the longest we got to be together. To be home with the one you love, you couldn’t ask for anything better and we just made the most of that whole time and created a routine for ourselves. We didn’t pressurise ourselves to learn this or that. It was tough initially, but we got used to it,” Kohli shared.
