Bold news: Hassan Ali and Samiya welcome a baby boy and expand their family circle.
Cricketer Hassan Ali shared joyful update on Instagram Wednesday morning: he and Samiya have welcomed their third child, a son. In his post, he wrote, “Helena, Hazel, Samiya and I welcomed a new addition to our family last night. Alhamdulillah, our beautiful baby boy (Hamdan Hassan Ali) is doing well and his Mama (my queen) is recovering strongly,” and he requested prayers from followers.
The couple tied the knot in August 2019 during an intimate Dubai ceremony. Samiya, who is Indian, was introduced to Hassan at a Dubai dinner more than a year before their engagement was announced. The family welcomed their first daughter, Helena, in April 2021, and their second daughter, Hazel, in February 2024.
On the cricket front, Ali represents the Karachi Kings in the Pakistan Super League and has played for Pakistan’s national team. In the most recent PSL auction, he was retained by the Kings, underscoring his continued value to the franchise.
