MANILA, Philippines – Former Azkals Phil Younghusband and his wife Margaret Hall are going to be parents, expecting their face baby in Summer of next year.
The couple made the announcement on December 22, with Phil writing on Instagram: “[Margaret] and I are excited to let everyone know that we are expecting a new addition to the Younghusband family in the Summer of 2020. Mags has just entered her 2nd trimester and so far, she is doing really well.”
He added: “It has been our dream to be parents for a long time now and for our wishes to come true, we feel truly blessed by the Lord. We hope to be half as good as parents as our Mother’s and Father’s have been to us and those parents we have surrounded ourselves with.
“Thank you to everyone for the support and we would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas filled with love and happiness.”
Margaret for part said they are so thrilled to make the announcement. “Carrying a baby is the most incredible feeling and we are so grateful for this beautiful miracle.
“We are so blissfully happy and we will not take this blessing for granted,” she said.
The two tied the knot in Canterbury, the United Kingdom in July. They got engaged in 2017.
Phil, 33, played alongside his brother James in the Azkals, the Philippines’ national football team. He retired last November.
