JJ Watt and Wife Kealia Are Expecting Baby No. 2: 'Can't Wait'

Retired NFL star JJ Watt is preparing to be a dad … of two!

JJ and his wife, Kealia Ohai Watt, announced via Instagram on Monday, February 3, that they are expecting their second child.

Kealia, a retired professional soccer player, and JJ have been married since February 2020.

They welcomed their first child, son Koa James Watt, in October 2022.

Alongside photos of the family of three and their two dogs, Koa is seen kissing Kaelia’s burgeoning baby bump.

“Can’t wait to welcome new love into our lives,” JJ and Kealia captioned the joint post.

JJ, meanwhile, isn’t the only Watt brother expecting a child in 2025. Both of his brothers, T.J. Watt and Derek Watt, are also expecting children this year.

In October 2024, Derek and his wife, Gabriella Watt, revealed they are expecting their third child, their first girl.

“Cannot Wait!!!! She is going to have an entire family wrapped around her finger,” Uncle JJ commented under the announcement.

T.J. and his wife, Dani Watt, are expecting their first child, they revealed in November 2024.

After JJ and Kealia announced their pregnancy, fans in the comments joked, “WATT is in the water?”

In a 2024 exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Watt said he wished he would have known more about how time consuming parenting was before he became a parent himself.

“It’s a good and a bad thing, but the amount of time and energy required,” JJ admitted.

“You can’t just get up and go do whatever you want. You have a human being to take care of. But I think on the same side is the amount of energy that they give you and the amount of life that they give you. It is the coolest thing ever to see that youthfulness and to be reinvigorated by that energy.”

Now, things are about to get a whole lot busier with two.
