Ash Barty Just Became a Mom—But Wait Until You Hear How Many Kids She’s Juggling

For someone who could handle the pressure of a Wimbledon final, Ash Barty seems just as comfortable tackling something far more unpredictable—motherhood. Yes, Australia’s golden girl has officially traded the baseline grind for baby giggles, and the tennis world still can’t quite believe it.

When Barty shocked everyone with her early retirement in 2022, most fans assumed she’d disappear into a quiet life of golf games, leisurely brunches, and the occasional charity appearance. But in true Ash fashion, she had a bigger plan brewing—one that didn’t involve a tennis court. In 2023, she and husband Garry Kissick welcomed their first child, Hayden. And while that alone sent the internet into a meltdown of congratulations and “mini Barty” speculation, the real question became—is this just the start?

Because here’s the thing: Barty has always been full of surprises. She once quit tennis entirely to play professional cricket before returning to dominate the WTA. So, is anyone really going to bet against her going from one baby to… say… a doubles team of her own? The whispers have already started in Aussie media—friends hinting she’s “a natural” at parenting and wouldn’t be shocked if a sibling announcement comes sooner rather than later.

And fans are eating it up. Social media is full of cheeky posts: “Forget the Fedal rivalry, I want to see how many kids Ash and Garry have by 2030!” Others are already dreaming of a future where little Barty offspring are ruling junior tennis tournaments—or maybe cricket fields, if mum’s past adventures are any hint.

For now, though, she’s keeping her new family life beautifully private, only dropping the occasional adorable snap to keep the fans on the hook. Hayden’s chubby-cheeked cameo was enough to melt even the iciest sports reporter’s heart, and every new post has people wondering if baby No. 2 could already be on the way.

One thing’s for certain—whether she ends up with one child, two, or a full tennis squad, Ash Barty has proven she’s still unbeatable when it comes to life choices. She walked away from the sport at the absolute peak, built a life on her own terms, and now? She’s winning all over again—just with bedtime stories instead of tie-breaks.

So, how many kids will Ash Barty end up juggling? Only she knows—but if history tells us anything, she’s bound to surprise us. And we’ll be here, watching every move like it’s match point.
