Laila Ali is going to make Muhammad Ali a grandpa!


Retired undefeated Women's Super Middleweight Champion and youngest daughter of Muhammad Ali, Laila Ali, has announced that she is pregnant with her first child. Laila, who cohosts NBC’s American Gladiator tells Essence magazine that she and husband, former NFL player Curtis Conway, will become parents in the fall. “I don’t know yet if we are having a boy or a girl, but I’m excited that I have a life inside me that my husband and I created,” says Laila.

The 30-year-old Ali married Conway, 36, last July in Marina Del Rey, California. Her first marriage to former boxer, Johnny “Yahyah” McClain, ended in 2005. Conway has three children from a previous marriage.

“Curtis is very calm and has a quiet confidence, and he wanted what I wanted—to be married and have a family,” says the former boxer. “I am 100 percent undeniably happy,” gushes Laila. “I've never been able to say that before.”
