The actor Song Joong Ki from Descendants of the Sun and his wife Katy Louise Saunders, who resides in the UK, welcomed their first child in Italy, and he is a boy! The actor’s management company, High Zium Studio, has confirmed the information. In January of this year, Song Joong Ki made his engagement to Katy public. He additionally disclosed that she was carrying their child.
Wednesday saw the release of a statement from Song Joong Ki’s agency that said, “Song Joong Ki became the father of a baby boy in Italy.” The actor immediately informed his admirers of the good news in a touching letter written to his fan club. Additionally, he shared the first image of his baby gripping a finger.
Song Joong Ki penned down in a letter, “Hello, this is Joong Ki. I’m curious how all of you are doing. As you probably know all too well, I wrapped up filming for the movie My Name Is Loh Kiwan in Hungary, and I even had the honour of attending the Cannes Film Festival for the movie Hopeless. All of the moments from the film festival still feel like a dream to me; that’s how happily I’ve been spending my days.
“Today, I came here to greet you because I have one more piece of news that feels like a dream, and I wanted to be the first to tell you. Right now, I’m in Italy.
“Here, in my wife’s hometown of Rome, we happened to welcome our baby. It’s a healthy son.. and both the baby and his mother… are in very good health. As we welcomed [our child] in good health and joy, I am taking care of my family very happily, with a grateful heart.
“I think [our son] is the most precious gift to have found its way to us, a married couple whose biggest dream all our lives was to start a happy family. And I think it’s thanks to the many people who gave us their support that such a happy day has found us. Thank you.
“I’m always grateful to the Ki Aile [Song Joong Ki’s fans] who give their sincere, unchanging love, and I, Joong Ki, will also sincerely wish for there to be great joy in all of your lives as well. As befits an actor, and in order to stay true to myself… I will return to greet you with a cool project. Please always be healthy. And I love you,” he wrapped up.
