Coach Deion Sanders’ family is not new to headlines. On the field, off the field! The family’s social media is always abuzz with something or the other. ‘Coach Prime’s’ daughter, Deiondra Sanders, has been in the spotlight for her personal joys. A month back, the Sanders household was over the moon when Deiondra welcomed her first child into this world with beau, R$B singer Jacquees. Recently, the 32-year-old business mogul took the internet to storm by sharing her post-pregnancy body transformation and the whirlwind of emotion that’s attached to the delicate life event.

Just a day back, the new mother floated out a message of rejuvenation post-motherhood in a gorgeous white outfit. But there’s much hassle behind the outer glam that the world was unaware of until the lady herself unfolded in the comment threads. As we abide by the ‘no pain, no gain’ approach in sports, real life is no different. Momma Sanders had to undergo a lot of intricacies on the road to her 9 months pregnancy season.

After having a couple of miscarriages before, tests brought out the main culprit, fibroids (a menacing growth in the uterus that bears the risk of bleeding and other symptoms related to the baby’s overall health). Taking no time after an early diagnosis, Sanders opted for myomectomies, the best option to get rid of her condition. And for all these snags, she had a C-section delivery, which is usually a bit more painful than the others.

While Sanders shared her dependency on a pain-reliever belt in a recent IG post, fans got on tenterhooks to know more about the terror she faced and the reasons behind it. In a clear yet concise reply, Deiondra Sanders said that she had to bear the pain solely for her fibroids and myomectomies.

However, like every other mother in the world, the first sight of the child returned Deiondra Sanders all the favor. An overwhelming ‘Thank you, Jesus’ cry of a new mother rendered how every bit of pain seemed worth it for her for the time being. The steak of joy continues with a unique gesture of the newborn at his grandfather’s CSU face-off this week.

Coach Prime got a rare gift on his 57th birthday as the new member of the Sanders family touched down the world and let his grandfather step into a new innings in his life. After watching Deiondra Sanders deal with a heck of trouble for the last 28 weeks, it came off as a watershed moment in Sanders’ life. During CU’s Media Day in Boulder, the veteran NFL legend couldn’t help letting his raw emotion out and counting ‘how much of a blessing that is.’ That said, little did he know an even more heart-melting surprise awaited on the line.

In his first month into the world, the little one joined the family to rally behind his grandpa, Sanders; Big 12 battle with the Colorado Buffaloes on Saturday. Deiondra Sanders wrapped her boy up in Buffs’ merchandise to showcase support, and the adorable visual effortlessly caught everyone off guard in the stadium.
