Karius, Wife Welcome Second Child

Former Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius and his wife, Italian presenter Diletta Leotta, have welcomed their second child, a son named Leonardo.

The couple, who married in 2024, shared the joyous news on Instagram, noting it capped a big week for Karius following his team’s recent success.

The birth comes just days after Karius celebrated a successful return to the German Bundesliga with Schalke 04.

Leotta was unable to celebrate Karius’s triumph on the pitch as she was heavily pregnant with Leonardo, but she lauded her husband’s resilience in a gushing Instagram post.

She posted: ‘This sport can be tough, sometimes ruthless. [It] exposes you, tests you, makes you fall in front of everyone.

‘But if you find the strength to stay, to believe again, sooner or later it brings you back exactly where you deserve to be.

‘I have seen that strength up close. In the silences, in the difficult moments, on the days when it would have been easier to give up.

‘And today it’s not just a victory. It’s a revival. It’s love for what you do. That’s courage. Proud of you.’
