Valentino Rossi Welcomes Baby Girl, Gabriella – A New Chapter for the MotoGP Legend
MotoGP icon Valentino Rossi and his partner, Francesca Sofia Novello, are celebrating the arrival of their second daughter, Gabriella, born on January 4, 2025. The couple shared the heartwarming news on social media, posting a tender photo from the hospital with Francesca holding their newborn, captioned: “Bienvenida Gabriella. 4.01.25.”
Fans from around the world flooded the comments with congratulations and warm wishes, showing love for the growing Rossi family.
Rossi and Novello, who have been together for over seven years, first became parents in March 2022 when they welcomed their daughter Giulietta. The birth of their first child played a pivotal role in Rossi’s decision to retire from professional motorcycle racing, shifting his focus toward family life and his passion for car racing.
Since his MotoGP farewell, Rossi has remained active in motorsport, now competing in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) as a factory BMW driver. While he continues to push limits on the track, his greatest joy now lies at home with his daughters and partner.
Gabriella’s arrival adds another layer of joy to the life of the Italian racing legend. As Rossi navigates fatherhood alongside his thriving post-MotoGP career, the world celebrates this exciting new chapter with him.
