The 40-year-old reality star and Olympic gold medalist shared the exciting news on Instagram Stories on July 1, posting a sweet hospital video with her oldest son, Aaron Jr., cuddled beside her. In her arms was the family’s newest arrival, with the words “He’s here!!!” over the baby’s face. She also tagged her husband in the post and included a joyful “I’m so happy” graphic, capturing the energy of the moment.

This little one joins big brothers Aaron Jr., 7, and Asani, who’s nearly 19 months old. The couple has been very open about their journey to expanding their family, including Sanya’s heartbreaking miscarriage that aired on a 2023 episode of RHOA. At the time, Sanya shared that what began as a normal pregnancy sadly ended in a traumatic emergency where she required a blood transfusion after a severe miscarriage.

“I was rushed off in an ambulance to the hospital,” she recalled during the episode. “I lost so much blood that I had to get a blood transfusion. Especially not having Ross there, being by myself, it was really, really hard.”

Despite the pain of that experience, Sanya remained hopeful about growing her family—and that dream has now come true again.

Back in February, she and Aaron first revealed the pregnancy in a joint Instagram post during her Coming to America-themed birthday bash, where the couple also celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary. Wearing a glam gold and black gown with a sheer belly cutout, Sanya posed proudly with her bump while holding up three fingers, symbolizing baby number three.
