Former NRL player Alex McKinnon and wife Teigan welcome baby girl
Former NRL player Alex McKinnon and wife Teigan have welcomed their first child.
One year after fulfilling his dream of walking Teigan down the aisle, McKinnon unveiled daughter Harriet Anne to the world with a photo of the family on social media.
"Happy anniversary @teiganmckinnon," McKinnon wrote on Instagram.
Teigan also shared the news on Instagram with a number of pictures.
"When 2 became 3. Harriet Anne Mckinnon. 7-10-18," she wrote.
McKinnon was a promising rugby league talent with Newcastle when he suffered a career-ending spinal injury in an NRL match in 2014 that left him a quadriplegic.
He had played 46 matches for the Knights prior to the injury, in addition to making three appearances for St George Illawarra.
McKinnon proposed to Teigan not long after waking from a coma following the accident.
They exchanged vows in an emotional wedding last year.
The 26-year-old McKinnon has since blossomed in a number of various roles across rugby league circles, including as a commentator for broadcast network Fox Sports.
