But the loved-up pair only announced the news on Tuesday – saying they had been left “speechless”.
Posting a picture on Instagram, Nunes, 32, wrote: “Speechless. Raegan Ann Nunes 9/24/2020 7:15am
“#happydaughtersday #love #mylittlefamily”.
In a separate post, of herself holding Raegan Ann, Nunes added: “The best feeling in the world.”
Ansaroff, 34, shared her own post with the caption: “Raegan Ann Nunes is here! I am so in love!
“I can’t wait to show you the world!
“September 24th 2020 will forever be my favourite day. You are a dream come true.
“Happy daughters day my beautiful girl.”
This summer, Nunes – the current bantamweight and featherweight champion – claimed she was considering retiring from UFC.
But those plans could be put on hold after Dana White joked he “would kill her” if she quit now.
“I’ve achieved everything I wanted,” Nunes said after defending her bantamweight crown for the first time.
“I’m well. I can go on with my life, maybe a new step, maybe find new talents, help some girls there — maybe be a coach, too.
“I’m in a moment that I can retire, you know, and I’m in a moment that I can fight. I’m fine.
“There’s nothing else to be done right now in the division.
“The Hall of Fame will come, for sure.
“My life going forward, if I do stop now, the UFC will give me every support I need to continue having my money and work.”
THE GOAT.

But White hit back, saying: “I will kill her, I literally just told Sean and Mick in the last meeting let’s get this division built for her.
“Let’s build this division for her, and let’s start figuring this out. And now she’s talking about retiring?
“You know what’s awesome about that when you think about it?
“Her retiring isn’t awesome; that actually drives me nuts.”
