The past 12 months have been interesting for many WWE superstars both on and off screen. Whilst many wrestlers prefer to focus on their careers and then start a family when their time in the spotlight has come to an end, not every wrestler decides to follow this blueprint.
Over the past year, there have been many current and former WWE superstars who have welcomed additions to their family, some of these were high profile births that came with their own TV show, whilst others managed to skate under the radar as just another mention on a dirt sheet.
Before we head into the list, former Divas Champion Eve Torres gave birth to her second child earlier this year a boy called Renson, whilst former star Stacy Keibler also gave birth to her second child, a boy called Kobhi.
Here are all the WWE stars who have welcomed children over the past 12 months.

#5 Lio Rush
Lio Rush has become a star on both Monday Night Raw and 205 Live in recent months, it was known during his time in NXT that The Man Of The Hour was a single parent but all of that changed earlier this year.
It was recently reported that Rush married his longtime girlfriend Sarah Lai Wah in Los Vegas over the festive period, but earlier this year the couple also welcomed their second child. Rush announced the arrival of his second child Dakai Liam Green on Twitter back in February.
Rush has become a star alongside Bobby Lashley on Monday Night Raw ever since his debut, but it appears that his personal life has also been through some huge changes over the past year as well.
#4. Pete Dunne
Pete Dunne is the current NXT UK Champion, a title that he has now held for more than 500 days, but whilst the NXT star has been focused on his in-ring career and the launch of the new NXT UK brand over the past few months, he has also announced that his life has changed outside of the ring as well.
Back in November, it was announced by The Bruiserweight that he and his girlfriend had welcomed their first child together, a daughter. Dunne announced her arrival on Instagram, where he shared the following cute photo of the newest addition to his family that melted the heart of many members of the WWE Universe.
Dunne hasn't publically shared the name for the first addition to his family but had continued to perform on NXT and NXT UK since she was born last month.
#3. The Rock
The Rock will always be seen as one of the biggest names in the wrestling world, but whilst his career in the ring and on the big screen has taken off over the past few years, he has also been able to concentrate on the personal life of his own.
The Rock's oldest daughter Simone has made headlines recently because she has started to follow in her father's footsteps by taking some classes at the WWE Performance Center, but as well as Simone, The Rock also has two other daughters.
After The Rock and his first wife Dany Garcia split, he started dating Lauren Hashian in 2007, the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter called Jasmine back in 2015 but earlier this year the former World Champion also announced the arrival of his second daughter with Lauren and his third daughter overall, called Tiana Gia.
#2. Maria Kanellis and Mike Bennett
Maria Kanellis made her return to WWE back at Money in the Bank in 2017, but she was unable to make as much of an impact as she would have liked since it was revealed late last year that the former Impact Wrestling star would be forced to take some time away from WWE TV after announcing that she was expecting a daughter.
Maria and Mike finally welcomed their daughter back in April after Maria herself stated that she was over her due date. Just months after Maria gave birth to her first child, called Fredrica Moon, she made her return to the ring back in October as part o the Women's battle royal at Evolution. Fredrica and Mike were spotted in the crowd watching Maria make history along with a number of other members of the women's division.
#1. The Miz And Maryse
The Miz has been a hot commodity throughout 2018 having been pushed to the height of WWE as well as being seen as the newest reality TV star since Miz and Mrs has been seen as the biggest hit on the reality TV scene.
Miz and Maryse were already stars on Total Divas before they were handed their own show following the birth of their daughter Monroe Sky. Maryse was incredibly able to return to WWE TV merely months after giving birth to her daughter and even more impressively, she was able to wrestle just four months later.
Monroe Sky is destined to become a star in her own right in the coming years since she has already proved that she has what it takes to be as big a star has her mother and father in the coming years.
