The Minister of Happiness shared joyous family news today.
Ons Jabeur is pregnant and expecting her first child, a baby boy, in April.
The 31-year-old Jabeur shared the happy baby news in an Instagram post featuring a video alongside her husband, Karim Kamoun. The couple hold a baby’s onesie and a tiny Wilson racquet and share a loving embrace in the video.
“Took a little break to reset and recharge… Turns out, we’ve been planning the cutest comeback ever 👶🎾” Jabeur posted on Instagram. “The court will have to wait a little longer, because soon… we’ll be welcoming our tiniest teammate 👶💙
“Baby boy joining the team in April 🤍🩵”
Former world No. 2 Jabeur and Kamoun, a former fencer who is his wife’s trainer, wed back in November of 2015.
The happy news comes months after Jabeur stepped away from the WTA tour, later revealing she was suffering from depression caused by the stress and pressure of the pro circuit.
Last week, the world No. 78 told Sky Sports she won’t return to the WTA Tour until she feels fully healthy and happy again. Jabeur said she feels the schedule is a never-ending marathon and the Tour treats “us as robots, but not as human beings anymore.”
“I’m coming back when I feel like it, when I feel happy again,” Jabeur said.
“I think it is time to speak up and to change this. I feel like they see us as robots, but not as human beings anymore on the court. Just play, play, play.
“You don’t want to disappoint your team and then your sponsor. And then you look at the ranking, I’m losing points. What should I do? Should I play more? So for me, it’s like all that I’m going to put away. Thankfully, everyone was really supportive from my side and even if they were not, I’m putting myself first, no matter what.”
