Song Joong-ki and his wife Katy Louise Saunders have welcomed their first child.
Song’s letter: The “Vincenzo” actor, 37, made the announcement on his official fan cafe on Wednesday.
“I wanted to come onto the fan cafe because I have another dream-like announcement that I wanted to share with my fans first,” the actor wrote. “I’m currently in Italy. I welcome my first child with my wife in her hometown, Rome. It’s a healthy son.”
“With both the son and mother healthy, I am so thankful that I can happily care for my family,” Song continued. “This is the most precious gift to us, a married couple who have dreamed about a happy family our entire lives.”
Song also made sure to thank his fans, writing, “I also think that this day was only possible because of the many people who have supported us. I am so grateful to [my fans] who gave me their unchanging and genuine love. I sincerely hope that these great joys will also make their way into your lives as well.”
In addition to his personal letter, Song also shared a black-and-white photo of his son’s hand wrapped around his pinky.
Song’s marriage: Song — who played lead roles in hit K-drama series “Vincenzo” and “Descendants of the Sun” — announced his marriage to 38-year-old Saunders in early 2023. He also shared the news of her pregnancy during the same time.
The news of the couple’s relationship was first confirmed in December 2022. It was later revealed that the two had met when Song was learning Italian from Saunders.
