Jayson Tatum is now a two-time gold medalist and a two-time dad!
After the Boston Celtics star and the Team USA men’s basketball team defeated France in the Paris Olympics finals Saturday, he and his girlfriend, Ella Mai, debuted their baby during a family photo shoot in honor of Tatum’s big win.
In a video shared online , Tatum posed with the “Boo’d Up” singer, who was holding the newborn, his mom, his grandma and his eldest son, Jayson “Deuce” Tatum Jr., whom he shares with his high school girlfriend, Toriah Lachell.

In another part of the clip, Mai, 29, held the infant as Tatum, 26, took solo pics with Deuce.
Page Six has reached out to both Tatum and Mai’s reps for comment but did not immediately hear back.
The NBA champion and the “Shot Clock” singer have kept her pregnancy private. In fact, fans didn’t even learn about Mai’s pregnancy until she debuted her baby bump while celebrating Tatum’s 2024 NBA finals win in June.
Throughout the years, the notoriously private couple have kept their romance low-key.

“They say you’re a Boston Celtics fan and possibly dating a Boston Celtic. Is there any truth to that?” he teased.
Mai replied, “I’m a basketball fan, definitely, but you know, I’m not one to talk about my dating life.”
The “Trip” singer and the NBA star made their first public appearance together at Michael Rubin’s annual Fourth of July White Party in the Hamptons in July 2022.
