A few days ago, tennis star Naomi Osaka gave birth to a daughter, her first baby with rapper Cordae. Cordae first confirmed the news last weekend, when he told his audience at Canada’s Calgary Stampede, “My daughter Shai was just born a couple of days ago, so I want to dedicate this performance to my baby girl Shai. Love you, I’m going back home.”
Now Osaka has shared her first social media post since the child’s birth, and it includes the first photo of the baby. We don’t see the baby’s face in the picture, but we do get a look at her adorable and on-brand outfit: a onesie with pink and green tennis rackets and balls embroidered all over. The post also features a photo of Osaka looking down at her pregnant belly in what might be a Cordae recording setup, based on the musical equipment in the shot.
Osaka wrote in the post, “Well that was a cool little intermission, now back to your regularly scheduled program [tennis ball emoji] [peace sign emoji] [hearts emoji].”
As for what’s next for the couple, Osaka’s caption seems to suggest she’s going to start preparing for a return to tennis. Cordae, meanwhile, recently dropped a collaboration with Juice WRLD.
“Well, that was a cool little intermission, now back to your regularly scheduled program.” This is what Naomi Osaka posted to her Instagram on Thursday, July 13th. The main photo: A picture of her newborn baby girl filling out a tennis-themed onesie. Osaka and her longtime boyfriend, rapper Cordae, welcomed their first baby into the world this week, and the couple couldn’t wait to share the news with social media. The post also included stills from the pregnancy and delivery process, including Osaka in a hospital gown, waiting to start.
One commenter cheekily said, “Baby gonna win 25 slams and drop a #1 album.” It speaks to the powerhouse couple of Naomi Osaka and Cordae. Osaka, taking a break from tennis for her pregnancy, was quickly becoming the best female tennis player in the world. Cordae, on the other hand, has been performing shows and dropping tracks like nobody’s business. Together, they have dominated their respective industries while remaining strong in their relationship. And now they have a beautiful baby girl!

As for the name of the baby, it had been a secret up until Cordae let it slip during a concert. Via The Huffington Post, the rapper said to the crowd, “Speaking of family, my daughter Shai was just born a couple of days ago. So I want to dedicate this performance to my baby girl Shai. I love you, I’m going back home.” If what he said is true, the baby’s name is Shai, and she seems to be in good health, both she and her proud new mother, Naomi.
As for what Osaka said in her post, it could allude to her triumphant return to professional tennis in 2024. Her goal is to get ready for the 2024 Australian Open. Until that time, she will be plenty busy being a new mom and adapting to having another human in the house. Meanwhile, Cordae will be coming home after a bit of touring to be Dad for a few weeks. Congratulations to the happy, healthy couple!

People reports the baby was born in Los Angeles, and that both she and Osaka are “doing well” after the birth. The baby’s name lines up with what Osaka told the publication in April when she said, “We have been discussing names. I would say that we are going for something more unique than traditional.”
Before the birth reveal, the latest news about the child from the couple was the aforementioned baby shower photos. In them, Osaka wore a crop top sports jersey to proudly show off her baby bump. In one of the pics, Cordae bends down to hold the belly as he gives it a kiss.
According to PEOPLE Magazine and aggregated by @NoJumper on Instagram, Naomi Osaka has given birth to a baby girl. Osaka and her boyfriend, rapper Cordae, welcomed their firstborn into the world today in Los Angeles. Both Osaka and the baby are doing well, as confirmed by sources who told PEOPLE. Cordae and Naomi Osaka announced the pregnancy back in January via Instagram.
The love story between 25-year-old rapper Cordae and 25-year-old four-time Grand Slam singles champion Naomi Osaka began before 2020. The power couple is going strong, with a new addition to the budding family arriving today. Osaka and Cordae aren’t married, but that could be in the works after the birth of their baby girl. As for a potential name for the newborn, Naomi offered a little insight into her thought process to PEOPLE: “We have been discussing names. I would say that we are going for something more unique than traditional.”

Looking to be the best version of herself for her daughter, Naomi has been a huge advocate for mental health. This was especially the case when she decided to take a break from her tennis career, which was on its way to superstardom. She pulled out of all 2023 tennis tournaments and hasn’t played professionally since September 2022. Once she learned she was pregnant, she paused her career aspirations until the 2024 Australian Open. She’ll remain focused on being a rockstar mom for her new baby girl.
As for Cordae, the rapper has been busy with his own career aspirations. He recently released the single “Doomsday,” a collaboration with the late hip-hop artist Juice WRLD. The multi-hyphenate artist is close to obtaining an EGOT — an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award — after winning an Emmy in the spring for the kids’ TV show We the People. He has three Grammy nominations and zero wins so far, but don’t hold it past him to achieve this lofty goal. For now, he and Osaka are going to have their sights on being terrific parents for their daughter. Congrats to the family!

In January, Naomi Osaka took to social media to announce her pregnancy. The 25-year-old has been praised as one of the best tennis players in the world, with four Grand Slam championships under her belt.
Osaka took to both Twitter and Instagram to share the exciting news, posting a photo of the ultrasound and sharing a heartfelt letter to her fans.
“The past few years have been interesting to say the least, but I find that it’s the most challenging times in life that may be the most fun,” she states. “These few months away from the sport has really given me a new love and appreciation for the game I’ve dedicated my life to.”
Earlier this month, Osaka withdrew from the Australian Open, perplexing audiences about why. Her last match took place in September of last year, after withdrawing during the second round of the Toray Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo. Her last full match resulted in a first-round loss at the US Open in 2022.
Osaka also revealed she would be taking the entirety of 2023 off from the sport, simultaneously sharing her excitement about becoming a mom.
“I realize that life is so short and I don’t take any moments for granted, everyday is a new blessing and adventure,” Osaka continues. “I know that I have much to look forward to in the future, one thing I’m looking forward to is for my kid to watch one of my matches and tell someone ‘That’s my mom,’ haha. 2023 will be a year full of lessons for me and I hope I’ll see you guys at the start of the next one cause I’ll be at [Australian Open] 2024.”
Osaka is currently dating rapper Cordae, who graced the cover of The Source last year. The lovebirds went public with their relationship back in 2019.
Since Osaka won her first major championship in 2018, she has publicly vocalized why she’s had to step away from the competitive sport, revealing her mental health struggles, including “long bouts of depression.” This followed an incident in August 2021 where Osaka fell victim to the pressures of the media during a mandatory news conference at Roland Garros.
She also adds some words of encouragement: “I don’t think there’s a perfectly correct path to take in life, but I always felt that if you move forward with good intentions, you’ll find your way eventually.”
And what better way for Osaka to reveal news of becoming a mother then releasing her children’s book called The Way Champs Play? Available on Amazon, the book serves as a “rhythmic celebration of sport and play,” as Osaka shares the essential steps in becoming a true champ.
According to Forbes, Osaka is the highest-paid female athlete, thanks to her brand deals and sponsorships. Last year, Osaka launched her talent agency alongside longtime agent Stuart Duguid, taking on Nick Kyrgios and Ons Jabeur as clients.
You can see her announcement below.
