TV presenter Sophie Walsh and her partner, Sydney Sixers cricket star Moises Henriques, have announced the birth of their first child together, a beautiful baby girl.
The 40-year-old esteemed Nine News veteran and her 39-year-old sporting star partner recently took to social media to share the joyous milestone with their followers, posting a heartwarming gallery of photographs featuring their newborn child. The announcement immediately drew an outpouring of warm wishes and congratulatory messages from colleagues, friends, and fans across the Australian media and sporting landscapes.
Among the tender collection of images shared online, one particularly precious photograph captured the proud new parents smiling brightly as they posed together with their newborn daughter. Another intimate snapshot showed the tiny infant resting peacefully across Sophie’s legs, highlighting the quiet, tender moments of early parenthood.
Sophie officially introduced her daughter to the world by captioning the digital gallery with a series of deeply personal and affectionate words. She wrote: ‘Clementine "Minty" Ana Henriques. Born 26/09/26. The sweetest girl we’ve ever known @mozzie21.’
The announcement struck a chord with many of Sophie’s colleagues and friends from Channel Nine, who quickly flooded the comments section of the post to celebrate the couple’s new arrival.
Sarah Abo, a prominent television personality and former Today show co-host who recently welcomed a child of her own, was among the first to offer her congratulations. ‘Congrats beauty!! Welcome, gorgeous Minty. Best thing in the world,’ she wrote.
Sylvia Jeffreys also shared her delight over the new arrival, adding her own warm sentiments to the conversation. ‘Wonderful news, Soph! So happy to see you with your darling girl in your arms. Minty is a beauty!’ she noted.
Fellow television presenter Georgie Gardner chimed in with high praise for the baby’s distinctive and charming moniker. ‘She’s just perfect! Could not be happier for you Sophie. I adore the name Clementine!!!’ she shared.
The arrival of baby Clementine marks a significant and happy chapter for the couple, whose relationship has steadily captured public attention since they officially went public in 2024. At the time, Sophie delighted followers by posting a photograph of the pair attending Taylor Swift’s blockbuster, star-studded concert at Accor Stadium in Sydney. That public confirmation followed earlier hints shared on social media by the Today host, which had previously suggested that the prominent journalist and the accomplished athlete were seeing each other.
Moises Henriques is widely recognized and deeply respected across the Australian sporting community as a versatile and dedicated cricketer. Over the course of his impressive athletic career, the talented all-rounder has represented Australia at the international level across all three traditional formats of the game, earning a reputation for his leadership, resilience, and skill on the pitch. Domestically, he continues to play a vital role for the Sydney Sixers, cementing his status as a fan favorite within the Big Bash League and broader Australian cricket circles.
For Moises, the arrival of baby Clementine also brings the joy of expanding his family once again. The cricketer is already a devoted father to his six-year-old son, Archie, from a previous marriage with his ex-wife, Krista Thomas. Moises and Krista had previously celebrated their relationship with a stunning, high-profile wedding ceremony held in Cairns in 2018, before later parting ways.
The shared family photos posted by Sophie and Moises highlighted the inclusive and loving dynamic of their newly expanded household, capturing moments that also featured Moises’ older son, Archie, embracing his new role as an older brother. The blending of their family has been met with widespread affection from followers who have followed both figures through their respective professional and personal milestones over the years.
As Sophie takes time away from her familiar television screens to embrace motherhood, and as Moises balances his ongoing commitments to cricket with his growing family responsibilities, the couple’s announcement has served as a heartwarming moment for supporters across the country. With the arrival of little Clementine, the popular media personality and the celebrated sportsman enter an exciting new phase of life, surrounded by the love and support of their extended family, close friends, and colleagues throughout the Australian entertainment and sporting communities.
