Ayesha Curry is one proud mom.
Ayesha, 35, shared a video of her and husband Stephen Curry‘s Caius Chai, via her Instagram Story on Monday, July 1, nearly two months after his 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡.
“The sweetest Chai,” she wrote on the clip, which showed Ayesha gently rubbing her little one’s leg.
The couple welcomed Caius on May 11, announcing the news in a joint Instagram post.
“Our sweet 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 boy decided to make an early arrival!!” read the caption of a black-and-white pic of the 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦’s hand. “He’s doing great and we are finally settling in at home as a family of 6! So grateful!”
Ayesha and Stephen, 36, who tied the knot in 2011, also share 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren Riley, 11, Ryan, 8, and Canon, 5.
In March, Ayesha revealed in a Sweet July magazine essay that she and the NBA player were expecting their fourth 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦, explaining why the time felt right to expand their family.

“I would load up the car and think, ‘Oh, I forgot something,’” she said. “But nobody was forgotten. It started to turn my brain a little bit. Maybe somebody was missing. So we set out on this journey, knowing that this would complete our family.”
Showing off her 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 bump in maternity pics, Ayesha got candid about her fourth and final pregnancy.
“I think there’s something that needs to be more nuanced when it comes to women, their age and conversations around having 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren,” she wrote in the essay. “Many women in their 30s and 40s are going through this for the first time, and being told you’re ‘old’ feels alarming and wild. I think the narrative needs to be shifted a little bit.”
She continued: “But one of the biggest differences [of this pregnancy] is a new understanding that this really does pass by in the blink of an eye. And in the blink of an eye, it could also all be taken away. That’s encouraged me to slow down and take in every single little thing — especially with it being my last pregnancy.”
Before becoming a father of four, Stephen told People in 2023 that he was beginning to introduce his kids to sports in the backyard.
“I’m just trying to make sure that whatever they do, they’re having fun,” he said at the time. “There’s lots being thrown at them on a daily basis and a lot of perceived pressures. So I’m trying to make sure they enjoy being a kid and finding joy in everything they do.”
