“Our greatest gift is on its way” - Thai megastar Rodtang, wife Aida announce pregnancy of their first child

Better start calling Rodtang Jitmuangnon 'The Iron Dad'.

Rodtang and his wife Aida Looksaikongdin announced on Instagram that they are pregnant with their first child after getting married last year.

Taking to Instagram, Aida said their "greatest gift is on its way" while showing a video of her reaction after those coveted two lines appeared on the pregnancy test kit.

Rodtang then came into the frame with his usual laidback vibe, before celebrating the life event he had waited so long for.

Aida posted:

"Can’t keep calm… I’m going to be a mom! Our greatest gift is on its way."

In another post, Aida and Rodtang Jitmuangnon had their first photoshoot as soon-to-be parents while they held up an ultrasound image of their baby:

"A big gift is on its way! ‘From now on, it’s not just the two of us anymore; it’s the three of us.’ 💝👶👩‍❤️‍👨”

Rodtang and Aida were already in a relationship before, but the former ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion revealed in previous interviews that they fell out due to their immaturity and youth.

It would take a few more years before the pair got back together and eventually married in February 2023

Following their wedding, 'The Iron Man' has since trained both at his home gym of Jitmuangnon and his Aida's family stable of Looksaikongdin.

Rodtang now looks to add to his milestones when he takes on Takeru Segawa in a flyweight kickboxing super fight in the main event of ONE 172 on March 23, 2025, at Saitama Super Arena in Japan.
