Despite withdrawing from the Scotland tour to the Americas, the Bath star ensured he was present for the birth alongside his partner Emma.
Emma shared the news on Instagram: “Skye Anna Russell 🕊️🤍 our precious second daughter is here.”
The Scotland fly-half was cheered on from the stands throughput this season by his dedicated partner, Emma Canning.
Canning and Russell have been together for several years, though they briefly split in 2021 before rekindling their relationship.
She has over 20,000 Instagram followers, where she shares glimpses of her glamorous life with Russell.
Before moving to France and subsequently Bath, Canning was a promising track and field athlete, competing as a heptathlete for Scotland.
Last year, she posted a picture of herself and Russell, only to receive a troll’s comment saying, “Must be invigorating to know your only talent is to be in a relationship with a talented person.”
Canning quickly retorted, “Actually – there’s room for two Scottish athletes in our relationship. Lol,” accompanied by a video of her long jump competition.
The couple has one child, a daughter named Charlie, born in December 2022, and they are expecting another child soon.
DID YOU KNOW? Russell has been nicknamed ‘Russell the Muscle’ due to having a somewhat slender build for a modern-day rugby player, and has also been given the moniker ‘White Chocolate’ by teammate Simon Zebo
