Real Madrid star Gareth Bale has announced the birth of his new-born son Axel Charles.
The 28-year-old, who has two other daughters – Alba Violet, 5, and Nava Valentina, 2 – with long-time partner Emma Rhys-Jones, became a father for the third time on Tuesday morning.
The Wales international took to Twitter to announce the exciting news with a heartwarming post.
Real Madrid star Gareth Bale posted a picture of his new-born baby son on Tuesday morning
He wrote: ‘We are delighted to welcome a baby boy into our family this morning. Axel Charles Bale 08.05.18.’
Bale uploaded a picture of his son with the post and looked like he had dressed him in an adorable Champions League-themed babygro as it was white with stars – similar to the logo.
The former Tottenham star will be hoping with the support of his new baby son, he will be able to secure his third Champions League gong in succession with Real Madrid later this month against Liverpool.
Bale has been used sparingly in this season’s Champions League with boss Zinedine Zidane preferring to use Isco and Marco Asensio.

Bale struck superbly to score Real’s second equaliser against Barcelona at the weekend
But the Welsh forward has given himself a good opportunity to claim a starting berth in Kiev after reminding everyone of his ability to deliver spectacular goals on big occasions at the weekend.
Bale starred in a fiery El Clasico by scoring a late equaliser from just outside the box to earn Madrid a point after Cristiano Ronaldo had hobbled off at half-time with an injured ankle.
The Portuguese star is due to have a scan on it this week but Zidane confirmed after the match it would not threaten his place in the final.
