South African Runner Caster Semenya and Wife Welcome Baby

South African short-distance runner Caster Semenya and wife Violet Raseboya have welcomed their first baby, according to reports.

A source told South Africa’s Daily Sun that two welcomed a baby girl a few months ago but have kept it under the wraps.

Raseboya describes herself as ‘Mama Ora’ on Instagram, a hint that the girl is named Ora. The couple tied the knot in a colorful wedding ceremony in 2015.

29-year-old Semenya, a double Olympic champion, did not defend her title at the 2019 World Athletics Championships in Doha, Qatar after a Swiss court ruled that she must take testosterone-reducing medicine to be allowed to compete with other women.
