On Sunday, September 17, Sock posted highlights from the baby shower on Instagram. In the pictures, the couple looked happy and radiant. Sock wore a hazy blue shirt and beige trousers, while Little wore a blue satin dress.

"Here comes the Son."

The baby shower came just a few weeks after Sock bid farewell to his tennis career at the 2023 US Open. The 30-year-old expressed his satisfaction with his decision and showed his gratitude to those who contributed to his achievements throughout his career.

"To the 8-year-old boy who immediately fell in love with the sport of tennis, I hope I made you proud. It's been 14 years of memories I will never forget. Without the help of so many people, none of that could've ever happened," Jack Sock wrote.

"I've had the privilege of competing in Flushing Meadows since I was seventeen, and this year's US Open will be the final event of my career. I look forward to creating memories in front of the best fans in the world one last time!" he added.

The American played his last doubles match with his longtime doubles partner John Isner, who also retired after the tournament. The duo lost to Robert Galloway and Albano Olivetti in three sets in the first round.

Sock and Isner won three doubles Masters 1000 titles together: Shanghai 2016, Indian Wells 2018 and 2022.
