Watch: Alexander Volkanovski posts gender reveal of third baby, twitterati spot his apparent dismay with the result
UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski's video on social media where he revealed the gender of his third baby created a stir on social media a few months ago. Some Twitter users noticed that he seemed disappointed with the result.
In the video, Volkanovski can be seen surrounded by his family, including his wife Emma Volkanovski, and two daughters, Ariana and Airlie. They popped a balloon to reveal pink confetti, indicating that they were expecting a baby girl. While the family appeared excited and celebratory, some viewers thought that Volkanovski's reaction was not as enthusiastic as the others.
A video posted by Alexander Volkanovski revealing the gender of his third child was shared by Spinnin Backfist on Twitter. The caption joked about his disappointment.
Despite this, many fans congratulated the UFC champion on becoming a "girl dad" for the third time. In the video, Volkanovski mentioned that while he would love and cherish the baby regardless of its gender, as a father of two girls, he had hoped for a boy to add some variety.
