Charles Leclerc and wife Alexandra welcomed their first child, a daughter named Bianca, on November 3. The Ferrari driver announced the news via Instagram the following day with a simple caption: "Bianca 🤍 3.11.26".

The pregnancy was never officially confirmed, though rumors started at the Hungarian Grand Prix when Alexandra appeared in the paddock with a visible bump. Leclerc acknowledged he was becoming a father in September during a Ferrari Threads chat but kept details private until the birth.

The couple married in a civil ceremony in Monaco this past February and have been together publicly since early 2023. They're planning a larger celebration in 2027.
