Back in May, Becky Lynch made an announcement that sent shockwaves through WWE, when The Man revealed that she and fellow star Seth Rollins were expecting their first child together. Lynch has since taken time away from WWE and is due to give birth in December.
Whilst Becky Lynch was allowed to have a high profile announcement given her position in the company at the time, several other WWE stars have quietly welcomed new additions to their families over the past year.
There are also several stars on the current WWE roster who have become parents through marriage. Here are just three WWE stars who recently became parents and three that you probably didn't know were already step-parents.
#6 WWE Parent - Angelo Dawkins
Angelo Dawkins has had a fantastic run on WWE's main roster since being promoted from NXT in 2019 and is currently one-half of the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
Dawkins and Montez Ford quickly became popular on RAW in their time on the main roster and were recently drafted over to SmackDown where they traded the RAW Tag Team Championships for the SmackDown titles with The New Day.
Both Dawkins and Ford have had a fantastic 2020 inside the WWE ring, it could be argued that Angelo Dawkins' life outside the ring has been much more as memorable since he became a father for the first time back in July.
The former NXT star and his wife welcomed a little boy, whoss arrival he announced in true Dawkins fashion on Instagram. The current SmackDown Tag Team champion has since updated a number of touching posts on his Instagram page which show him bonding with his newborn son.
Judging by his most recent updates, Dawkins has adapted to life as a father pretty well.
#5 WWE step-parent - Naomi
Naomi hasn't been seen on WWE TV in a number of months after the former SmackDown Women's Champion revealed on her Instagram story that she had been forced to undergo an unexpected surgical procedure.
Despite the absence, Naomi was drafted over to Monday Night RAW in the 2020 WWE Draft last month and is now rumored to be joining The Hurt Business when she is cleared to make her return.
Naomi has been seen as one of the most athletically gifted female wrestlers in WWE over the years, and outside of the ring she's also seen as a role model. When Naomi married fellow WWE star Jimmy Uso, the former champion became the stepmother to his two children from his first marriage.
Uso has a daughter called Jayla and a son called Jaiden and the two children have been seen numerous times on Total Divas as Naomi has been shown adapting to becoming their stepmother.
Interestingly, Jey Uso also has two children with his wife Takecia, but Jey has two sons.
#4 WWE parent - Jason Jordan
It's been a long time since the WWE Universe has seen Jason Jordan in the middle of a WWE ring. The triple crown Tag Team Champion has been out of action since the beginning of 2018 after suffering what was believed to have been a minor neck injury which is now more serious than originally thought.
This ended the storyline between Jordan and Kurt Angle (who had been revealed as his storyline father) whilst also allowing the former Champion to transition into a member of the company's backstage team. In recent months Jordan has been spotted in a number of backstage segments and brawls since he's now one of the stars sent out to control the action on WWE TV.
Outside of the ring, Jordan's 2020 has been much better since he announced the arrival of his first child on Twitter back in June. Jordan announced back in December 2019 that he was expecting his first child in June 2020 and even revealed that his daughter would be called Ava Rose Everhart.
#3 WWE step-parent - Bianca Belair
The EST of WWE seems to have hit her stride since making her way over to SmackDown in the recent WWE Draft. Bianca Belair is current undefeated after two matches and is the only woman who has qualified for the Women's Survivor Series team so far.
Belair has been seen as a woman who is the future of the division for a while but during her time on Monday Night RAW, the company was unable to utilize her to the fullest of her ability.
Whilst Belair is the EST of the company when she appears on WWE TV, outside of the ring she's married to fellow WWE star Montez Ford. The couple met when they both began training at WWE's Performance Center a few years ago.
Through marriage, Belair has become the step-mother to Ford's two children from a previous relationship. Ford is very private about his children and his personal life outside the ring but it's known that he has a little boy and girl.
#2 WWE parent - Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns has had a rollercoaster of a year. The Tribal Chief turned heel on WWE TV and has got fans excited about his new gimmick.
Earlier in the year, Reigns was one of the stars who missed a major chunk of the year after lockdown was announced which meant that he also missed WrestleMania and the chance to go one-on-one with Goldberg.
Braun Strowman stepped in and it was later revealed that Reigns had decided to take some time away because of his health and because his wife had recently given birth to their second set of twins. Reigns already had a daughter called Joelle when he came to WWE. The Universal Champion welcomed twins back in 2016 and his family was then increased to five.
It was later announced that Reigns was expecting another set of twins in early 2020 and the babies were just eight weeks old when he decided to take some time away from WWE ahead of WrestleMania back in March.
#1 WWE step-parent - Randy Orton
Randy Orton recently became a 14-time World Champion and has had a fantastic year given that he has been able to bring back The Legend Killer and feud with the likes of Edge, Christian, Ric Flair, The Big Show, and Shawn Michaels.
Orton has currently become the target of The Miz, The Fiend and Drew McIntyre as his WWE Championship becomes the most prestigious Championship in the company once again.
Whilst Orton is showing why he was born to be a star in WWE, outside of the ring his wife Kim Kessler has been holding down the fort at home. Before Orton met Kessler he was married to Samantha Speno and the couple had a daughter. This relationship came to an end in 2013 and Orton went on to marry Kessler who was a self-confessed fan of The Viper before their marriage.
When the couple married, Kessler became the step-mother to Randy Orton's daughter Alanna, whilst Orton became the step-father to her three sons. The couple have also since welcomed their own child, a daughter called Brooklyn Rose who was born back in 2016.
