Aussie boxer Nikita Tszyu welcomes first child and reveals newborn's VERY unusual name

Daily Mail​a day ago

Nikita Tszyu has welcomed his first child with his wife Nikita Bedwell.
The Aussie boxing star, 27, shared the happy news to Instagram on Saturday and revealed his baby girl's very unusual name.
The couple named their daughter Curiosity and hope the name will give her both courage and strength.
'Curiosity is the passion that drives us through our everyday lives. It is this powerful force of curiosity which has led humans to become explorers, scientists, historians and artists,' Tszyu posted to social media.
'Curiosity is the everlasting flame burning in all of us that compels us to ask questions, to wonder, to learn, to grow and to know.
'As parents, we hope our daughter's name will give her the courage and strength to explore life without fear.
'May her own curious mind be the guiding compass leading the way as she grows to understand herself and the world around her.'
'As Curiosity's parents, we vow to nurture her spirit of adventure and use the principles of the Japanese Bushidō 'The Way of The Warrior' as a guide to raising her.'
Tszyu, who is known for staying out of the spotlight, wed Bedwell in January, with just his famous father Kostya, brother Tim and Ms Bedwell's dad there as witnesses.
When Tszyu's mother was asked about the ceremony, she revealed that she had only just been informed about the wedding taking place.
'If the couple are happy — I'm blessing them both!' she told News Corp.
Tszyu, known as 'The Butcher' for his aggressive style in the ring, is much more reserved in his personal life.
There is barely a photo of his partner on social media or from public events, with many outsiders unaware that he was even in a relationship.
Tszyu, who has been fighting as a pro for three years, is rumoured to be taking on Michael Zerafa in his next bout, but nothing is as yet finalised.

Baby joy! Home and Away star Luke Jacobz expecting second child with wife Raychel after fertility struggles

Luke Jacobz has revealed he and wife Raychel are expecting their second child – a baby boy – following years of fertility struggles and heartache. The former Home and Away heartthrob, 44, best known for playing Angelo Rosetta, said the couple were left stunned to discover they had conceived naturally, after initially turning to IVF to fall pregnant with their first daughter, Maisie. 'We're having a boy! We are just over the moon,' Luke told Woman's Day this week. 'That we were actually able to fall naturally with number two – I jumped up and down and lost my mind.' Luke and Raychel, who met in 2017, began trying for a baby the following year but soon found themselves on an emotional rollercoaster. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Despite being given the all-clear medically, they struggled to conceive and eventually turned to IVF via Adora Fertility. Their journey was anything but smooth – involving multiple rounds of egg retrievals, repeated embryo transfers, and three devastating early miscarriages. With just one embryo left, the couple made the difficult decision to undergo one final transfer before their wedding, which had been delayed twice due to COVID. Incredibly, the transfer worked, and Raychel walked down the aisle four months pregnant. 'We weren't expecting that, so we just lost our minds,' Luke said. 'We were so close to not trying anymore because it was just so hard.' But after a harrowing pregnancy and a traumatic birth, the couple believed their family was complete. That is, until their daughter Maisie turned one, and they began to feel a growing desire to give her a sibling. 'We felt selfish not trying again,' Luke admitted. 'But we never imagined it would happen without help.' The couple welcomed their first child, Maisie, back in November 2023. In a sweet Instagram post, the television presenter was thrilled as he shared the good news with his 104,000 followers alongside several snaps of the newborn. 'Words cannot describe how happy we are to bring our bundle of joy into the world,' he captioned his post. 'Maisie - you are so loved and we could not ask for anything more perfect than you.' Luke added that his wife, now a new mum, was 'doing so well' and admitted the birth process was hectic. 'We had a very 'eventful' delivery day but it was all worth it,' he continued.

Gold Logie nominees vow dramatic protest if Hamish Blake wins TV's top honour: 'Stand up and walk out!'

It's shaping up to be the most talked-about Logies in years. And now, a group of this year's leading Gold Logie contenders have threatened to stage a dramatic walkout if one thing happens: Hamish Blake wins. Appearing together on Stellar's Something To Talk About podcast, nominees Sonia Kruger, Lynne McGranger and Ally Langdon threw their support behind their fellow female contenders. The trio are up for Gold alongside Julia Morris, Lisa Millar and Poh Ling Yeow – but didn't hold back when it came to the prospect of the LEGO Masters host walking away with the top gong. 'Stand up and walk out. We should make a pact,' Home and Away icon McGranger declared, sparking laughter from her fellow nominees. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, And if Blake, who won the Gold Logie in 2022 and 2023, attempts to soften the blow by inviting the women onstage during an acceptance speech? 'We just turn around and go, 'Sorry. You're on your own, buddy. Bye,' McGranger added. This year marks a historic moment for the Gold Logie, with six out of the seven nominees being women – a rarity in the awards' decades-long history. The Gold category became gender-neutral in 1978, and since then, only ten different women have ever taken it home. TV presenter and The Voice host Sonia Kruger said the female-dominated field was more than just symbolic – it sends a powerful message to the next generation. '[The three of us] have daughters. And one of the best parts was knowing that all those little girls out there who might be watching TV or looking for a career as an actor, a journalist, a presenter could then aspire a little bit more,' she explained. She continued: 'They see women who are doing that and being recognised for that.' Langdon, now fronting A Current Affair, reflected on the camaraderie among this year's nominees – and revealed that even Blake himself was jokingly campaigning against himself. 'The morning we had the [nominations] breakfast, Hamish was hilarious,' she said. 'He was genuinely saying, 'Don't vote for me. It would be the worst thing in the world if the one guy was the person to win it.' But also, look at the different pathways each of us took to reach this point.' Despite the jokes, the mood among the women is one of mutual admiration and unity. 'This particular group just highlights the fact that some amazing women work in this business,' Kruger added. The 65th TV WEEK Logie Awards nominees were announced earlier this month at the Sydney Opera House, highlighting the very best of TV talent in Australia. Voting is now open until 7pm on Friday August 1. The ceremony will be available to watch on Seven and stream on 7Plus. 65th TV WEEK LOGIE AWARDS NOMINATIONS TV WEEK GOLD LOGIE – Most Popular Personality on Australian Television Ally Langdon - A Current Affair, The Olympic Games Paris 2024, 9Network Hamish Blake - LEGO Masters Australia, 9Network Julia Morris - I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, Network 10 Lisa Millar - Back Roads, ABC News Breakfast, Muster Dogs: Where Are They Now, Muster Dogs: Collies & Kelpies, ABC Lynne McGranger - Home and Away, Seven Network Poh Ling Yeow - MasterChef Australia, Network 10 Sonia Kruger - The Voice, Dancing With The Stars, Logies Red Carpet Show, Seven Network Bert Newton Award for Most Popular Presenter Hamish Blake - LEGO Masters Australia, 9Network Julia Morris - I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, Network 10 Ricki-Lee - Australian Idol, Seven Network Sonia Kruger - The Voice, Dancing With The Stars, Logies Red Carpet Show, Seven Network Todd Woodbridge - Tipping Point Australia, Australian Open, The Olympic Games Paris 2024, Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, 9Network Zan Rowe - Take 5 With Zan Rowe, ABC New Year's Eve, ABC Graham Kennedy Award for Most Popular New Talent Guy Montgomery - Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee, ABC Hailey Pinto - Home and Away, Seven Network Jenny Tian - Taskmaster Australia, Network 10 Kate Miller-Heidke - The Voice, Seven Network Kylah Day - Territory, Netflix Sofia Levin - MasterChef Australia, Network 10 Ally Langdon - A Current Affair, 9Network David Speers - Insiders, ABC Michael Usher - 7NEWS, 7NEWS Spotlight, Seven Network Peter Overton - 9News, 9Network Sarah Ferguson - 7.30, ABC Tara Brown - 60 Minutes, Dangerous Lies: Unmasking Belle Gibson, 9Network TV WEEK SILVER LOGIE – Best Lead Actor in a Drama Lloyd Griffith - Return To Paradise, ABC Michael Dorman - Territory, Netflix Robert Taylor - Territory, Netflix Sam Corlett - Territory, Netflix Sam Neill - The Twelve, BINGE / FOXTEL Tai Hara - Return To Paradise, ABC TV WEEK SILVER LOGIE – Best Lead Actress in a Drama Alycia Debnam-Carey - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Anna Samson - Return To Paradise, ABC Anna Torv - Territory, Netflix Ayesha Madon - Heartbreak High, Netflix Kaitlyn Dever - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Lynne McGranger - Home and Away, Seven Network TV WEEK SILVER LOGIE – Best Lead Actor in a Comedy Aaron Chen - Fisk, ABC Ben Miller - Austin, ABC Clancy Brown - Good Cop/Bad Cop, Stan Luke Cook - Good Cop/Bad Cop, Stan Michael Theo - Austin, ABC Patrick Brammall - Colin From Accounts, BINGE / FOXTEL TV WEEK SILVER LOGIE – Best Lead Actress in a Comedy Harriet Dyer - Colin From Accounts, BINGE / FOXTEL Jenna Owen - Nugget is Dead: A Christmas Story, Stan Kitty Flanagan - Fisk, ABC Leighton Meester - Good Cop/Bad Cop, Stan Sally Phillips, Austin - ABC Vic Zerbst - Nugget is Dead: A Christmas Story, Stan TV WEEK SILVER LOGIE – Best Supporting Actor Ashley Zukerman - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Darren Gilshenan - Colin From Accounts, BINGE / FOXTEL Glenn Butcher - Fisk, ABC Mark Coles Smith - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Matt Nable - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Sam Delich - Territory, Netflix TV WEEK SILVER LOGIE – Best Supporting Actress Aisha Dee - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Chloé Hayden - Heartbreak High, Netflix Julia Zemiro - Fisk, ABC Marg Downey - The Newsreader, ABC Michelle Lim Davidson - The Newsreader, ABC Tilda Cobham-Hervey - Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Best Drama Program Bump - Stan Heartbreak High - Netflix Return To Paradise - ABC Territory - Netflix The Newsreader - ABC The Twelve - BINGE / FOXTEL Best Miniseries or Telemovie Apple Cider Vinegar - Netflix Critical Incident - Stan Fake - Paramount+ How To Make Gravy - BINGE / FOXTEL Human Error - 9Network Plum - ABC Best Entertainment Program ABC New Year's Eve - ABC Australian Idol - Seven Network Countdown 50 Years On - ABC Dancing With The Stars - Seven Network The Voice - Seven Network Vision Australia's Carols by Candlelight - 9Network Best Current Affairs Program 60 Minutes - 9Network 7.30 - ABC 7NEWS Spotlight - Seven Network A Current Affair - 9Network Australian Story - ABC Four Corners - ABC Best Scripted Comedy Program Austin - ABC Colin From Accounts - BINGE / FOXTEL Fisk - ABC Good Cop/Bad Cop - Stan Melbourne International Comedy Festival - ABC Optics - ABC Best Comedy Entertainment Program Gruen - ABC Hard Quiz - ABC Have You Been Paying Attention?

Jake Paul threatens to sue 'pig' Piers Morgan over 'lies'... just days after furiously storming off his TV show

Jake Paul has ordered his team to 'vigorously go after' Piers Morgan after the TV host branded the YouTuber-turned-boxer's win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. 'staged bulls***'. Paul secured a comfortable points victory over Chavez Jr., the son and namesake of a boxing great, in Anaheim on Saturday night. Boos rang out at Honda Center as Paul extended his professional boxing record to 12-1. It was his first fight since beating 58-year-old Mike Tyson in a hugely controversial bout. TV host Morgan called Paul's latest win an 'unwatchable farce' and suggested the fight was rigged. He also accused the YouTuber of 'killing boxing'. A few days before the fight, Paul had appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored. But he lashed out at the anchor, branding him a 'fat a**' before dramatically ending the interview. 'I had a better fight with Jake Paul on Thursday than the unwatchable farce that took place tonight,' Morgan wrote on X. Paul cut short a fiery interview with Piers Morgan after a foul-mouth tirade about the host 'The guy's lining his pockets with buckets of $$$$ - but he's killing boxing with this boring staged bulls*** against older fighters way past their prime.' But that prompted a furious response from Paul, who vowed to make 'pigs' such as Morgan pay for their 'lies'. 'After years of letting it slide as just 'haters being haters', I have asked my team to vigorously go after anyone who makes up lies about my boxing career. Expect to get served you pigs,' he wrote. Paul's comments came after his business partner, Nakisa Bidarian, called out Morgan for his 'baseless and irresponsible' post and said they would explore legal action. 'This claim is baseless and irresponsible,' Bidarian wrote on social media. 'Last night's fight vs. Chavez Jr. was a fully sanctioned 10-round cruiserweight bout, officiated by the California State Athletic Commission with official judges. 'No staging / rigging —just hard work and a legit win. To say otherwise not only undermines the integrity of the sport, but is defamatory and causes reputational damage to MVP, Jake Paul, and the Commission.
