The football power couple shared the exciting news on Instagram writing: “Our little man is here”.
Now they’ve melted hearts all over again with Mewis uploading an image of the duo stepping out with stroller in hand.
Mewis uploaded a carousel of images which she captioned “Forever moments” that included a host of moments from the pregnancy to showing off the newest member of their family.
From images of Mewis’ bump to Kerr laying on her leg while she’s in hospital to Kerr being fast asleep with Jagger nearby.
In one photo it showed the loved-up couple walking hand-in-hand as Mewis pushed the stroller along the footpath.
The post was flooded with messages of love and support from all corners of the football world.
Team USA wrote: “Congratulations” alongside a heart emoji.
American soccer player Megan Montefusco wrote: “Obsessed with your lil fam.”
Matildas goalkeeper Mackenzie Arnold commented: “So sweet.”
Fellow Matildas star Caitlin Foord simply posted two smiling with hearts emojis.
Kat Van Egmond added: “Gorgeous mamas” along with a red heart emoji.
Kerr, 31, and Mewis, 34, have been together since 2021 and got engaged in 2023.
It is understood the pair met around six months after the Matildas captain had moved to London in 2019, to join Women’s Super League (WSL) giant Chelsea.
Speaking about how they met during Kerr’s recent high-profile court case, where the Matildas forward was cleared of the racially aggravated harassment of a British police officer, the five-time WSL winner revealed the American footballer had ‘slid into her DMs’ during lockdown and shortly after they began dating.
Kerr also said while giving evidence during the trial that she was expecting a baby boy.
And while off-the-field life is better than ever for Kerr, the Matildas star still continues to battle a troublesome ACL that has kept her off the football field since January 2024.
Blues boss Sonia Bompastor recently claimed more than a year on there was still no timeframe for her return to play.
