Back in February, Osaka spoke with People about the gender of her baby, saying that she knew the gender, but her boyfriend didn't know yet. "I've been preparing, but he doesn't know the gender yet, only I know," said Osaka. "So it's not like I can build out the room or anything. So I don't know, [I'm] just kind of winging it. That's kind of the key motto in my life a little."
Earlier in the year, Osaka opened up about her mental health and her decision to step away from the 2021 French Open. "It's always really heartwarming when people tell me that I have helped them with their own struggles. I remember being in a grocery store one time and someone stopped me to tell me how much I meant to them as they were dealing with their own mental health struggles," she shared. "At the time, I was doing it for myself but I realized that my decision to help myself was also helping many others." With Osaka's baby on the way, the tennis star is stepping away from the sport, but has vowed to make her return in the 2024 Australia Open.
