Gabriel Jesus reveals he and girlfriend Raiane Lima are having a girl as she shows off growing baby bump on her birthday


MANCHESTER CITY striker Gabriel Jesus revealed he and his stunning girlfriend are having a baby girl.

Jesus posted a cute snap on his social media showing him kissing Raiane’s forehead and wrote ‘Happy birthday my love’, followed by heart and applause emoticons.

He added: “May God bless and protect our baby GIRL (yes, it’s a girl).”

Raiane, whose pregnancy was revealed at the end of September, responded: “Thanks for revealing it’s a girl without asking me beforehand.”

Although the laughing emojis she added afterwards showed Jesus wasn’t in her bad books.

The forward, praised by Pep Guardiola on Tuesday, went on to admit to fans he had set up his girlfriend.

Raiane posted a selfie picture showing her in pink lace lingerie to match the colour of the balloons behind her as she caressed her baby bump but simply wrote alongside the snap: “Happy birthday to me.”

The stunning Brazilian confirmed last July she was dating 24-year-old Jesus after they were spotted boarding his private jet in their homeland to return to Rio de Janeiro from her native city.

The footballer had travelled to Serra Telhada in the north-east state of Pernambuco to invest in race horses that excel at sprinting short distances.

Around the same time Raiane denied claims she had been romancing a local politician when she met the striker.

Jesus announced he was set to become a father for the first time at the end of September last year after scoring the winner in a 1-0 away victory against Chelsea.

He posted a photo of him with his thumb in his mouth looking up to the sky and wrote: “What a day! Very happy for this goal, this very important win for us and for the wonderful news.

“Expecting my first child. A celebration for a more than special moment!”

Last month the young couple came out fighting to rubbish split claims surfacing in their homeland by cuddling up to each other and insisting: “We’re doing fine.”

Well-known Brazilian journalist Leo Dias said at the time he had been told by sources close to the couple they had called time on their relationship despite Raine expecting their first child.

But the footballer and his partner took less than 24 hours to deny any rift with matching social media snaps showing they were still very much an item.

One, which they both posted on their Instagrams, showed Gabriel with his arms round pretty Raiane alongside the message ‘My love’ and a heart emoticon.

In another they responded directly to the split claims by writing alongside a second photo showing them lying on their bed: “We’ve never broken up and we’re doing fine.”

Man City manager Guardiola said on Tuesday that Jesus, who signed for the Premier League club in January 2017, is the ‘best in the world’ at defending from the front.

He said of the Brazilian, who has scored 88 goals in 220 games for The Citizens: “He can play in the three positions up front, and when we need players who can help a lot, he’s the best in the world.”

Pregnant Georgina Rodriguez used different-coloured balloons and confetti as she got her daughter Alana and Cristiano Ronaldo’s three children Eva, Mateo and Cristianinho to announce in December her twins due in April were a boy and a girl.
