The couple have been dating since 2014 but only went public in 2016, just before he retired from athletics after suffering a hamstring injury at the 2017 world championships.
In March they held a gender reveal party and he later told fans he was set to become a girl dad.

Considered the fastest human on the planet for his world-record holding sprints, Bolt has previously said there will not be any pressure for his daughter to follow in his footsteps.
Thats going to be hard for my kid. If they want to do it, Im fine with it, he said previously.
But initially, Im going to say dont do it, because I know the pressure that will come along with it.
