“Orion is a star constellation and for parents, your kid is your star. When Hazel was pregnant, and sleeping in the hospital, I was watching some episodes where the name came to me and Hazel took an instant liking to it. I wanted Hazel’s last name also to come in the baby’s name, so that’s how it came about,” he reveals. He goes on to share that his happiness knew no bounds when he first got to know that Hazel was pregnant. “We had been trying for a while to have a baby but it didn’t happen. Hazel was four months pregnant when she left for England, and just when I had to go, I got Covid, so I had to quarantine for two weeks before I could see her,” Yuvraj said.

Considered to be one of the best-limited overs cricketers India has ever produced, Yuvraj Singh played 40 Tests, 304 ODIs and 58 T20Is for India from 2000-to 2017 and was part of India’s 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 World Cup victories.

Every Time I Look At Orion, It’s An Amazing Feeling: Yuvraj Singh On Fatherhood

The last five months have been very “different, special and emotionally overwhelming” for former cricketer Yuvraj Singh, who welcomed his first child with his wife, actor Hazel Keech Singh. In an exclusive chat with Hindustan Times on Father’s Day, Yuvi gets excited and emotional as he talks about his newborn son.

“It took a while to understand that I was a father. Every time I look at Orion, it’s an amazing feeling that there’s someone who is a part of you and your wife. And yes, I think I’m decently a hands-on father; Hazel has trained me well. I won’t say I’m as perfect as my wife is, but I can feed him a bottle, change his nappy and put on his clothes.

Actually, when I’m changing his nappy and putting on his clothes, I need time and I don’t want people around me. It’s like a mission for me, but I still happily do it. He has peed on everyone except me right now, so I’m the next target,” Yuvraj said.
