Wout van Aert announces he is to become a father for the second time
Cycling
Wout van Aert has taken to social media to announce the brilliant news that he and his partner Sarah De Bie are expecting a new addition to the family this summer.
With the pair having welcomed their first child, Georges into the world in 2021, the Belgian cycling superstar will now once again be hearing the pitter-patter of little feet as little Georges becomes a big brother.
This wonderful news will no doubt lessen the blow that the 28-year-old van Aert will have felt having lost out to longtime rival Mathieu van der Poel in a thrilling finish at the recent Cyclocross World Championship in Hoogerheide.
With the newest member of the van Aert family due to arrive this summer, cycling fans' attention will be drawn to whether or not the Jumbo-Visma riders preparation for the Tour de France and the Road World Championships in Glasgow will be effected.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point.
