‘Thank you to everyone who’s been praying with us over her arrival. We are so incredibly thankful for all of the love and support we’ve felt.

‘We can’t wait to share her name with you soon’.

However, it didn’t take long for that announcement. Just hours later, the couple returned to Instagram to share a joint post which revealed their daughter’s name. 

The post read: ‘Meet our daughter, Daphne Reign Tebow. 

‘Daphne is a name that’s been close to my heart since I was a little girl. I never got to meet my mom’s mother, but her sister, Daphne, stepped in as a grandma figure to me.

‘And Reign… it’s a name that holds so much meaning. But more than anything, her name reminds us that when you’re adopted into God’s family, you become a child of the King. You were made to rule and reign—not in power, but in purpose, love, and idenтιтy.

‘So here she is — our daughter. Our answered prayer. Daphne Reign Tebow — created in the image of God. Royalty as His princess. Our biggest prayer over her is to reign in God’s purpose for her life’.

The couple first announced the news that they were expecting a child back in January in a joint Instagram post.

The couple later revealed that they had named their daughter Daphne Reign

Tebow and wife married in 2020 and are celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary on January 20. 

After brief stints with Denver Broncos and New York Jets, the Philippines-born star Tebow was only used in the offseason or as a practice squad member by New England Patriots, Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars before being released by the latter in 2021.

He has also tried his hand in professional baseball in recent years, signing a minor league baseball contract with the New York Mets in 2016 and playing outfield for the organization for five years.
