Football star Julian Weigl and television presenter Sarah Richmond are expecting their third child, sharing the announcement via a joint Instagram video on September 30, 2026.
- Pregnancy Announcement: Julian Weigl (31) and Sarah Richmond (29) revealed they are expecting their third child through a video posted on Instagram at the end of September 2026.
- Prior Loss: The upcoming birth follows a pregnancy loss that Richmond shared with the public in February via social media.
- Family Context: The couple, who married after meeting in their youth, welcomed their first daughter in 2021 and their second daughter in April 2024.
Social Media Announcement and Public Response
The couple published their pregnancy news through a video showing them standing barefoot under palm trees, with Weigl gently touching Richmond’s visible baby bump. Accompanying the footage, the couple wrote, “A little more love, a little more hope, a brand new chapter,” according to reporting by teleschau.
The post drew immediate public responses from prominent figures within sports and entertainment. Model Anna Adamyan, who has previously discussed experiencing multiple miscarriages, wrote in the comments, “It is so wonderful!! I am so happy from the bottom of my heart with you.” Additional well-wishes came from Scarlett Gartmann-Reus, wife of footballer Marco Reus, who commented, “So happy for you,” alongside messages from television host Steffi Brungs, model Mandy Bork, and sports commentator Jörg Dahlmann.
Coping With Loss and Moving Forward
In February, Richmond posted a black-and-white photograph from a hospital on Instagram, explaining that a previous pregnancy had ended prematurely. At the time, she described the experience not as a failed pregnancy, but as a baby they would never hold, while expressing solidarity with others dealing with similar grief in silence.
Family Background and Professional Commitments
Weigl and Richmond share a long-standing relationship, having met as teenagers when he was 15 and she was 13. They married in Portugal in 2020. Their family expanded with the birth of their first daughter in 2021, followed by a second daughter in April 2024.

Professionally, Weigl plays for the Saudi Arabian club Al-Qadsiah, following a career that included stints at Borussia Dortmund, Benfica Lissabon, and Borussia Mönchengladbach. Richmond is known for her work as a television host, notably on the Toggo Show at Super RTL (now RTL Super), as well as her work as a radio host for WDR.
