Matthew Richardson and wife Genevieve have welcomed their second daughter.

The former Richmond champion said Riley Alice was born on Friday.

“Yeah great day yesterday, 3.24pm to be exact little Riley came along and mum and bub are doing well,’’ Richardson said on Channel 7’s footy coverage last night.

The couple have a two year-old daughter, Zoey.

Richardson was congratulated by fellow commentators Luke Darcy and James Brayshaw who asked how he helped.

“I was useless, I was walking around on eggshells, I didn’t know to say or do. But I just offer support,’’ he said with a smile.

Richardson was on high alert two Wednesdays ago when he appeared on The Front Bar which was Genevieve’s due date.

The couple got married in January last year.
