The recently retiring Johanna Konta has some wonderful news to share: she and Jackson Wade are expecting their first child.
On Monday, she shared the news on social media with a humorous allusion to one of her favorite hobbies off the court.
In the celebrity charity edition of the BBC's The Great British Bake-Off in 2020, Konta, who adores baking, came in second. Several current and past WTA players, including Donna Vekic, Shelby Rogers, Katie Boulter, Dominika Cibulkova, Timea Babos, and Harriet Dart, praised Konta in the comments section.
Is Johanna Konta Pregnant?- Baby With Husband
Jackson Wade and Johanna Konta are deserving of congrats! The tennis player has made it known that he and his wife are expecting their first child. She posted a picture of her expanding baby belly this week on her Instagram account.
With her professional tennis retirement announcement at the beginning of December and her marriage to her longtime partner less than two weeks later, Johanna has had a busy few months.

The former World No. 4 tennis player announced her retirement from the sport in December and shared the news on her social media accounts as well after fighting a chronic knee problem.
Konta, a three-time semifinalist at a Grand Slam, became the first British woman to go to Wimbledon's final four since Virginia Wade in 1978.
Seven months after making their engagement public at a ceremony in London two weeks ago, Johanna Konta wed her longtime partner Jackson Wade.

She posed with her new husband, grinning broadly for the camera, with just a faint dusting of makeup and her brunette hair styled in a subtle slicked-back look.
Her film producer and photographer husband made a dapper figure in a blue suit and a black bow tie as he put on a romantic act with the British number one.
The parents and family of Johanna Konta, a.k.a. Jo Konta, are overjoyed to discover about their daughter.
At the age of 14, Konta, an Australian who was born in Sydney to Hungarian parents, moved to England.
She is of British, Australian, and Hungarian descent. She switched her sporting allegiance from Australia to Great Britain after becoming a British citizen in May 2012.
Konta's WTA rating had a dramatic increase, rising from 150th to within the top ten players worldwide.
