“Baby Sophia Saab, 02.09.20,” he captioned the post, revealing that their baby girl Sophia was born earlier this month.

The arrival of baby Sophia would have come as a surprise to many as the couple never confirmed they were expecting.

The couple married last year in July 2019 in a lavish wedding in Lebanon – in the Faqra mountains.

No corners were cut in the four-day wedding festivities for Saab Jr and Christina and, of course, the bride’s extravagant wedding gowns and outfits were all designed by her father-in-law himself.

Now, just over a year later, the couple has now started their family together with bay Sophia.

Congratulations to the Saab family!
