What’s more beautiful than a child, we often say. While Didier Drogba celebrated his 45th birthday this Saturday, March 11, 2023, his companion offers him a beautiful gift: The couple has just had a child.

It’s more than a birthday for the Ivorian star! This Saturday, March 11, the exact day of his birthday, Didier Drogba after his three children Isaac, Iman and Kieran, welcomes his fourth child, this time from his new companion Gabrielle Lemaire.

Although both parents have not yet officially announced the news, sources close to them indicate that the couple just had “a little boy”.

As a reminder, it has been a while since the former footballer has divorced his ex-wife Lalla Diakité, mother of his first three children. Fallen in love with the young Ivoiro-Belgian Gabrielle Lemaire, he remade his life with her. She has supported him a lot, especially during his quest for the post of president of the Ivorian Football Federation (FIF) where he failed, but also during the Golden Ball ceremony in October 2022 where she was at his side.
