Bianca Belair has given birth to her first child with husband Montez Ford, announcing the news Tuesday on her official X account.
“Welcome to the world Romeo Leonardo Allen Crawford,” Belair wrote alongside a set of newborn photos. Crawford is the couple’s legal surname. Ford was born Kenneth Crawford, and Belair took the name when the two married in June 2018.
The announcement lands two days after SummerSlam in Minneapolis and roughly three and a half months after Belair went public with the pregnancy at WrestleMania 42.
That reveal came on Night 1 at Allegiant Stadium, where John Cena announced an official attendance of 50,816 before Belair interrupted him to say the count was wrong. She told him to add one more, then showed the crowd her baby bump in her first WWE appearance in nearly a year.
Ford filled in part of the timeline days later. In an Instagram post marking his own return to Raw, he said the couple had kept the pregnancy quiet for six months, which put the due date in the July to early August window. Belair confirmed she was having a boy in a backstage vlog filmed over WrestleMania weekend.
Belair’s WWE Return Still Has No Timetable
Belair has not wrestled since WrestleMania 41 Night Two on April 20, 2025, when IYO SKY retained the WWE Women’s World Championship in a triple threat that also included Rhea Ripley. Belair broke fingers on her left hand during that match and underwent surgery in February after her recovery hit setbacks.
A three-time women’s champion on the main roster, Belair also won the 2021 Royal Rumble and holds two Women’s Tag Team Championship reigns. WWE has not announced a return date. In June, she used her Instagram Story to ask fans not to generate AI images of her son once he arrived.
