Texans star Christian Kirk and wife Ozzy's baby joy turns Instagram into an NFL lovefest
Christian Kirk's baby joy melts NFL hearts (Image via Instagram) Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk and his wife Ozzy have officially stepped into parenthood, marking one of the NFL offseason's most heartwarming moments. The couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl named Londyn Rose Kirk, drawing a wave of love and excitement from across the league. The news broke days after the birth, instantly becoming a viral moment among fans and NFL players alike. Kirk, known for his quiet off-field presence, chose a deeply personal reveal over headline-chasing. NFL stars join in to celebrate baby Londyn The wideout and his wife announced their daughter's arrival through an emotional Instagram post featuring a photo of Ozzy cradling baby Londyn. 'Welcome to the world, our little Rose Kirk (rose and heart emojis) 06.26.2025,' they wrote. Christian stood beside them, smiling through tears in what many called his proudest moment yet. The couple first revealed their pregnancy last December, calling it the "best gift we could have ever received. " The NFL community quickly responded, turning the comment section into an all-star celebration. JJ Watt posted a touching, 'Welcome to the world, Londyn,' while Texans mascot Toro joked, 'Aw, the newest Texans fan! Congratulations!' Other league voices, from teammates to rivals, echoed the sentiment. It was a rare moment of unity and joy amid the usual offseason buzz. Familiar faces and old ties light up the comments Among those chiming in was Emily Engram, sister of Jaguars tight end Evan Engram—Kirk's former teammate in Jacksonville—who wrote, 'OMG yay!!! Congrats babes!' Former Dolphins safety Daniel Thomas added, 'Congrats Family,' capturing the spirit of camaraderie. Marissa Layne Lawrence, wife of Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence, also shared love: 'Little Londyn!! I love you, she's perfect, you guys!' The comments were warm, personal, and deeply supportive. Adding to the surprise, Brittany Williams—ex-girlfriend of Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen—dropped two heart-eyed emojis in the mix. Despite her split with Allen in 2023, Brittany remains closely connected to NFL circles and is known to share a strong bond with Ozzy. Her sweet gesture was a subtle reminder of the friendships that go beyond team colors. Kirk and Allen, in fact, are longtime friends, having vacationed together and shared offseason time since 2022. Allen once tried to convince Kirk to join the Bills, joking, 'Buffalo's not that cold,' but Kirk went another way. Now, as Kirk steps into fatherhood, his NFL family is showing up off the field too.

Preview: Riverdance returns on 30th anniversary tour with Alberta siblings in cast
Article content The Irish dance show, Riverdance, started as an interval act during the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin, and has since grown into an international phenomenon. Article content Its 30th anniversary edition plays at the Jubilee auditorium in Edmonton from July 20 to 22, and in Calgary from July 27 to 29. Calgary is the final stop on this tour, which began in January. Article content The original Riverdance's seven-minute routine is still considered the most well-known interval act in Eurovision history. It was so well received, its creators – husband and wife team of John McColgan and Moya Doherty – expanded it into a full-length show which opened in Dublin the following year. It moved to London four months later, and to New York at Radio City Music Hall the following year. Article content Article content Article content Article content McColgan, who directed this newest version, says it introduces audiences to 'a new generation of artists, none of whom were even born when the original show debuted. It blends the traditional, which people love, with the contemporary, showcasing the skill and passion of the world-class dancers, musicians and singers in our new Riverdance ensemble. Audiences can expect new, innovative choreography and costumes, state-of-the-art lighting, projection and graphics.' Article content Edmonton sisters, Londyn and Olivia Nachtigal, are members of Riverdance's Irish dance ensemble, as they were for the 25th anniversary edition. Both have been dancing since they were four years old. Article content 'Our mother enrolled us in dance classes when we were each four years old. Both Olivia and I studied ballet, tap and jazz, but we soon concentrated on Irish dancing, and we're not even Irish,' says Londyn. Article content Article content 'It's not a discipline like the other dances we were studying. The closest to it is tap, obviously, because of the noise that you create when you are dancing. The big thing that distinguishes it from other forms of dance is that you have to keep your upper body and arms very straight when you are dancing. That's the thing about Irish dancing that people like to joke about.' Article content Olivia adds that 'the hardest thing for the dancers is to make it look really easy and comfortable, when it's not at all. It actually takes a lot of practice and effort to get your arms to stick to your side like that. Each of our dances is at least 10 minutes long, so it is taxing. You get used to it because you're doing eight shows a week.'

Travis Scott, Sexyy Red, and Mariah The Scientist perform at Future's daughter's sweet sixteen in Atlanta
Future pulled out all the stops for his daughter Londyn Wilburn's sweet sixteen, hosting a star-studded celebration in Atlanta that brought together some of hip-hop's biggest names. Over the weekend, the Grammy-winning rapper marked the milestone birthday with a private concert featuring performances by Travis Scott, Sexyy Red, Mariah The Scientist, and of course, Future himself. Earlier in the week, Future treated Londyn to an intimate dinner and surprised her with flowers. But the main event was reserved for the weekend—an extravagant affair where guests were treated to live performances and a glimpse into the rapper's love for his family. Notably, Londyn also joined the performers on stage during the celebration. Despite her father's fame, Londyn has largely stayed out of the spotlight. However, her appearances at high-profile events and on social media have hinted at a growing connection to the music world. As she comes of age, many fans are wondering whether she'll follow in Future's footsteps or carve her own path. Future, who has eight children, has publicly shared his love and support for Londyn. He previously welcomed children with Ciara and Joie Chavis, among others. Travis Scott and Future's friendship and musical synergy were also on full display at the bash. The duo have collaborated over the years on numerous tracks, including '3500' from Scott's debut album Rodeo, and 'First Off' from Future's 2019 record The WIZRD. Their chemistry continued with 'Sirens' on Scott's 2023 Utopia album, solidifying their status as two of modern hip-hop's most creative forces.
