Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard and his wife, Helene Spilling, have joyfully announced the arrival of their first child, a baby boy.
The couple shared the heartwarming news on social media, posting a photograph of themselves holding their newborn’s tiny hand.
They wrote, “We love you so much, our little baby boy.”
Odegaard and Spilling’s relationship first became public in March 2023 when they were spotted together at the London Football Awards. Since then, the couple has shared a relatively private love story.
It has been confirmed that they are now married, although the Arsenal midfielder has refrained from publicizing their union on social media.
According to the Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang, Odegaard updated his marital status in Norway’s national register, while Helene has officially adopted the name Helene Spilling Odegaard.
Helene Spilling gained national fame in Norway after winning the 2021 edition of the popular dance competition Skal vi danse.
She has won an impressive 17 gold medals in Norway’s national ballroom dancing championships.
