Texas Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian has had a roller-coaster journey with his wife, Loreal Sarkisian. After four years of marriage, the couple filed for divorce in July.
On Friday, Loreal surprised fans by posting a series of photos showing off her baby bump. In the caption, Loreal announced that she and Steve had welcomed their child into the world on Friday afternoon.
"He's arrived, and our hearts are full of love and gratitude! Embracing these first days quietly resting, adjusting, and soaking in every little moment has been amazing! Thank you for your love and support and for respect this sweet time of privacy," Loreal wrote.

Fans congratulated Steve Sarkisian and his wife following the birth of their child.
"Woooooooow these pics are BOMB," one fan commented.
"I love a good sacred and secret pregnancy congratulations! I did the same thing when I had my son Surprised everybody!" another fan said.
"I am so happy for you!!! You been Mama Lo. Lol," another fan wrote.
"Congratulations Queen! Praying blessings over you all," one fan said.
"Congratulations!!! He's going to be the flyest Lil Man around!!!" another fan commented.

Steve Sarkisian and his first wife, Stephanie, had three kids together. Their son, Brady, is part of the Longhorns as a walk-on linebacker. They divorced in 2015.
Steve Sarkisian and Loreal have had a roller coaster relationship
Loreal was a track and field athlete during her collegiate days at North Carolina A&T. After graduating, she coached track and field at the USC Trojans and the Florida Gators. Loreal then decided to switch to fashion after meeting the Texas Longhorns coach.
The couple married in 2020 when Sarkisian worked under Nick Saban in Alabama.
In 2022, Steve Sarkisian's wife told Austin 7 that she gave up on her coaching career because she wanted to build a relationship with her husband.]
"I started in track and field from running at a young age then coaching. Two coaches can't be in a relationship for long without it going to poop, so that led me to my next love, fashion," Loreal said. "All that time I always had love for fashion. But at the time of meeting him I was like, you know what, I want this to work but I'm not ready to stop working and stop helping people because that's what fashion is to me."
Last year, the couple mutually decided to file for divorce because of their professional lives and failure to prioritize time for each other. They released a statement explaining this decision:
"After many heartfelt conversations, we have decided to amicably part ways and jointly fiel for divorce...Our commitments to our respective careers made it difficult to prioritize time for each other and this step will provide us with the necessary time and space professionally while continuing to support each other personally."
