Retired tennis great Ash Barty has debuted her baby bump while on a walk with her dogs just days after she delighted sports fans everywhere with the news that she is expecting her first child with husband Garry Kissick.
The 26-year-old grand slam champion was seen walking her border collie Origi and two of her other pets near her Brisbane home on Thursday, sporting a blossoming belly after her big announcement last week.
Origi was front and centre of the post that broke the news, posed next to a pair of baby shoes accompanied by Barty's caption: '2023 set to be the best year yet. We are so excited for our new adventure. Origi already the protective big sister.'
