Julia Lemigova and Martina Navratilova have expanded their family.
The Real Housewives of Miami star and the tennis legend adopted two boys, Martina's agent confirmed to E! News.
The retired sports star, 67, added in a statement, "We are the over the moon recognizing the challenges and the rewards for everybody."
The names and ages of the couple's sons are currently being kept private.
Julia is already mom to daughters Victoria and Emma from previous relationships. The former model's first child, son Maximilien, tragically died as an infant over 20 years ago.
Julia previously let Bravo fans in on her and Martina's adoption journey during season five of the reality series.
"We're going to adopt a baby," she shared during an episode last fall. "If tomorrow they called me to say there was a little boy who needs a home, I mean, I would just collapse on the floor and die."
However, all of that changed for the couple of over 10 years after Martina was diagnosed with Stage 1 throat and breast cancer.
"When you're adopting a child, it has to be about the child," Julia explained during RHOM's season five reunion. "And, right now, it's everything about Martina, and for her getting healthy."
"So, we're putting it on hold," she added. "You know, we were thinking any moment, the agency would call and give us happy news that we're going to have a baby. Instead, we are fighting two cancers. Like one was not enough."
Thankfully, Martina announced in March that she's now cancer-free. Julia excitedly reacted to the happy news, telling Bravo at the time, “I am so proud of my champion for taking on two cancers and beating them triumphantly!”
