The baby girl’s delivery was confirmed by Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness in a celebratory tweet:  ‘Congratulations to our sprint legend Usain Bolt and Kasi Bennett on the arrival of their baby girl,’ Holness wrote on Monday.

In January Usain Bolt shared an Instagram post on the first announcement that Kasi Bennet was pregnant. In March, the long term couple held a spectacular gender reveal party at Peter’s Rock in Kingston, Jamaica as a way of letting family and friends know the sex of their baby.

Bolt, the only sprinter to win the 100m and 200m golds at three consecutive Olympics, specifically 2008, 2012 and 2016, is an 11-time world champion. Bolt retired after the 2017 world championships in London where he suffered a hamstring injury in the final race of his career.

The sprinter and his girlfriend Kasi Bennett welcomed their first child on Sunday, Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness confirmed in a congratulatory tweet.  ‘Congratulations to our sprint legend Usain Bolt and Kasi Bennett on the arrival of their baby girl,’ Holness tweeted.
