Football star turned motivational speaker Tim Tebow and his wife, former Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Tebow, have welcomed their first child together. The couple shared the joyful news on Instagram with a black-and-white hospital photo shoot that captured the emotional first moments with their newborn daughter. In the post, they expressed gratitude, faith, and love, thanking everyone who had prayed for their new arrival and giving a heartfelt nod to their medical team and photographer Hannah Janoe, who captured the special moments.
Shortly after, they introduced their daughter by name: Daphne Reign Tebow. Demi-Leigh explained the meaning behind the name: “Daphne” honors her mother’s sister, who acted as a grandmother figure after Demi’s own grandmother passed away before she was born, while “Reign” reflects the couple’s spiritual values, symbolizing being part of God’s family and living with purpose, love, and identity. They described their daughter as “our answered prayer” and referred to her as “royalty as His princess.”
Tim and Demi-Leigh had announced their pregnancy in January, expressing excitement about stepping into parenthood together. Married in 2020, the couple recently celebrated their fifth anniversary, and Daphne’s arrival marks another meaningful milestone in their shared journey, which blends family, faith, and purpose.
Tim Tebow, known for his Heisman-winning college football career and time with the Broncos and Jets, has transitioned from professional sports to motivational speaking, philanthropy, and broadcasting. Now embracing fatherhood with the same passion he brought to sports, Tebow and Demi-Leigh celebrate this new chapter with Daphne Reign, a reminder of faith, family, and life’s most cherished moments.
