NBA player Kevin Garnett and wife welcome first child, a daughter
Boston Celtics’ Kevin Garnett and wife Brandi Padilla-Garnett are brand new parents. The 31-year-old had missed two of the team’s practices before returning on Saturday, April 19th. It is being reported that during that time span, Kevin and Brandi welcomed their first child; the Boston Herald reports that it was a girl, born Friday, April 18th.
When asked about his time away, the always private Kevin replied,
Family issues are never public, so I ask [the media] to respect that.

If it is true..congrats to Kevin & his family. They are a gorgeous couple and I’m sure the baby is too. Brandi’s sister Lisa is married to Jimmy Jam (long time producer of most of Janet Jackson’s hit songs)

Chances are Kevin won’t announce anything about the baby. He is very quiet about his private life. It’s pretty remarkable how his life has changed over the last year. New team, new town, new baby. Congrats to him and his gorgeous wife, Brandi. Their child is undoubtedly gorgeous!
