Football great Sonny Bill Williams looked every bit the doting father as he was pictured holding his newborn son at Sydney Airport on Sunday.
Williams recently became a father for the fifth time and named his son Mohammed in a nod to his Muslim faith.
The soccer star was all smiles on Sunday as he was photographed with the new baby in public for the first time after arriving at Sydney Airport with his family.
‘SBW’ confirmed the news of the birth earlier this month via social media, and the cross-code baby and his wife Alana have kept the bundle of joy a secret for the past few months.
It is believed only family and close friends knew the couple were pregnant, with the Channel Nine commentator and his former model wife choosing not to find out the sex until the birth.
In an Instagram reelWilliams told her four children (daughters Iman and Aisha and sons Zaid and Essa) that they were going to have another sibling.
“Is Mom pregnant?” one of her children can be heard asking in the clip, which was posted on Friday.
Williams then told his followers that he and his wife are “punishment-seeking fools” before a beaming Alana entered the scene with a clearly visible baby bump.

The video continued with the couple discussing possible names for the baby, a boy or a girl, and Williams was tasked with naming her child.
Williams, a devout Muslim, was seen praying in the hospital in a blue gown, before saying that “it’s been a long nine months” and that he “hoped for a smooth process”.

“Four kilos, a healthy baby and a healthy mother,” says Williams, beaming with pride.
“May Allah bless and help Muhammad to be a strong and just man.”
