Warriors star Shaun Johnson and wife Kayla have welcomed their second daughter into the world.
The high-profile sporting couple announced the birth of Sachi James Johnson who was born on Friday, a little sister to Millah.
Kayla Johnson, a former Silver Ferns netballer, posted a video on her Instagram account on Saturday showing Millah meeting her sister for the first time.
“Our little Matariki baby meeting her big sister Sachi James Johnson. Born at 5.26pm, 14th July 2023. We love you,” the caption read.
It was a big few days for Shaun Johnson who confirmed this week he will play on for his 14th NRL season after inking a new one-year deal for 2024 at the Warriors.
Young Sachi’s arrival also increased the prospect of Johnson turning out for the Warriors in their NRL match against his former club the Sharks in Auckland on Sunday (4pm kickoff).
Warriors coach Andrew Webster said this week his star halfback was no certainty to play.

“He’s got to be there (at the birth), and we respect that but if it works out that he can achieve both this week, that would be cool,” Webster said.
The Sharks sit two points ahead of the seventh-placed Warriors on the NRL ladder, with both sides having 10 wins for the season.
