Liverpool player Luis Diaz and his wife Geraldine Ponce celebrated the arrival of their second child, a baby girl named Charlotte. The couple announced the joyful news by sharing heartwarming photos of themselves cradling the newborn, accompanied by their two-year-old daughter, Roma. The timing of Charlotte’s birth was particularly special as Luis had reached the Carabao Cup final with his team less than 24 hours before.

In a heartfelt caption, translated from their native language, Luis and Geraldine expressed their joy and gratitude for the long-awaited arrival of their precious daughter. They described Charlotte as a magical addition to their lives and shared their excitement for the unforgettable moments and love she would bring. They also mentioned that the 25th of every month would now hold special significance for their family.

The announcement came amidst the backdrop of Luis’s father, Luis ‘Mane’ Diaz, who had recently been held hostage. Roma had celebrated her second birthday while her grandfather was still in captivity. However, after 12 days, Luis’s father was freed in a handover involving a Colombian priest near the Venezuelan border in November of the previous year.

Despite the challenging circumstances, Luis continued to play for Liverpool, even scoring a late goal in a match against Luton shortly after his father’s release. He later reunited with his dad in an emotional moment and went on to score two goals for his country, Colombia, in a historic victory against Brazil.

Now, as Luis and Geraldine celebrate the birth of their daughter Charlotte, they embrace the joy and blessings that she brings to their lives, cherishing every moment with their growing family.
