Twenty-two-time Grand Slam winner Rafael Nadal is currently enjoying some well-deserved family time in Australia. The Spanish tennis star recently welcomed his first child, a baby boy, with wife Mery Xisca Perello. The family was spotted on a trip Down Under, where Nadal was preparing for the upcoming Australian Open.

Nadal and Perello announced the birth of their son on October 7, 2022. The couple has kept their pregnancy and the birth of their child private, so this is one of the first times they have been seen out together as a family.

The family appears to be enjoying their time together. Nadal was seen carrying his son in a baby carrier while Perello walked alongside them. The baby boy was dressed in a cute little onesie and looked very happy and content.

Nadal is currently ranked No. 2 in the world and is one of the favorites to win the Australian Open. He will be hoping to add to his 22 Grand Slam titles and continue his dominance in the sport.
