The arrival of her first born baby is imminent, so Australian model Shanina Shaik believes her baby daddy deserves to be recognised this Father’s Day.
The LA based Victoria’s Secret beauty is set to welcome her son in to the word in coming weeks, so plans on celebrating boyfriend Matthew Adesuyan this Sunday despite the fact he’s not technically a dad yet.
“It is special for us, because being Australian and Matthew; American, we get to celebrate two Father’s, AND Mother’s Days,” Shaik told Sunday Confidential.
“It was American father’s day in June, so we had a little celebration then, it felt surreal and special having our son with us, but not yet born into the world.
“Who knows if we will get to meet him before Australian Father’s Day.”
When asked what type of a father she believes Adesuyan, a well respected band manager in the US, would be, she said: “Matthew is an amazing partner, who only shows me love, respect and care — so I am sure it will be the same for our new family member”.
“I am certain our son is going to bring us all together and there will be even MORE love in our household, as we go from only having each other, to becoming a family.”
Shaik is set to appear on the cover of the September edition of Gritty Pretty magazine, where she reveals how pregnancy has already changed her.
“I’ve flown my mum from Australia to Los Angeles to be here for the birth.” she tells the magazine.
“We’re all so over the moon. Having a complication-free pregnancy is a privilege and the entire experience has made me appreciate women and mothers so much more.
“We bring life into this world and I really have a new found respect.”
