"So happy for you and Trav" - Wishes pour in as Ronda Rousey announces gender of her child following pregnancy reveal

Nearly eight years after her final fight in the UFC, Ronda Rousey has committed to becoming a full-time mother while co-running the Browsey Acres with her husband, Travis Browne. The couple had their first child in 2021 and three years later, Rousey announced that they will have another daughter in the coming months.

Browne and Rousey's first child, La'akea Makalapuaokalanipō, was born during the former judoka's hiatus from the WWE. 'Rowdy' confirmed that she was pregnant with their second child in 2024 but did not confirm that it would be a second girl until revealing the information at a comic book convention on July 26.

Although Rousey had already disclosed her pregnancy, the former Olympic medalist received an overwhelming amount of congratulatory messages beneath her post.

Nattie Neidhart was one of many of Rousey's former co-workers who sent her best wishes to the mother. Neidhart commented:

"I'm so happy for you and Trav!"

Ronda Rousey's new book

During the revealation of the gender of her second baby, Ronda Rousey was at a convention hosting a panel alongside fellow former WWE wrestler Dave Bautista to answer questions about her new graphic novel, 'Expecting the Unexpected.' The 37-year-old reiterated the news on social media after the event.

In her Instagram post, Rousey gave a sneak peek at the novel, admitting that the story she wrote is based on the story of her first pregnancy with Browne. Rousey referred to her book as a "martial arts romantic comedy" that is still currently in pre-sale.

The graphic novel announcement came months after Rousey resurfaced in MMA media for promoting the release of her autobiography, Our Fight. While putting a focus on her family and personal journey, Our Fight placed heavy scrutiny on the UFC and MMA as a whole.
