Breaking News: Rotherham FC Head Coach Matt Hamshaw and Partner Celebrate the Arrival of Twins…
Rotherham, South Yorkshire — Joy and celebration are in the air for Rotherham United Football Club as head coach Matt Hamshaw and his partner have welcomed the birth of their twin babies. The proud couple confirmed the arrival of their newborns earlier today, marking a heartwarming moment for the Millers’ family on and off the pitch.
The club released an official statement congratulating Hamshaw and his partner, describing the news as a “moment of pure happiness” for the dedicated coach, who has become a well-respected figure at Rotherham United over the years.
“We’re absolutely delighted to announce that Matt Hamshaw and his partner have welcomed twins into their family,” the statement read. “Both babies and mum are doing well, and everyone at Rotherham United sends their warmest congratulations to the couple.”
Hamshaw, a Rotherham native and former player himself, has been a crucial part of the club’s coaching staff for several seasons, stepping into the role of head coach last year. Known for his passion, commitment, and strong connection with the community, he has earned admiration from players, staff, and fans alike. The arrival of the twins adds a joyful personal milestone to what has already been a significant period in his career.
Speaking to the media via a brief club-arranged phone call, Hamshaw expressed his gratitude and excitement. “We’re over the moon. It’s been an incredible experience and we’re so thankful that both babies arrived healthy. My partner has been absolutely amazing through it all,” he said. “It’s going to be a new kind of challenge for us as a family, but we’re ready for it.”
Well-wishes have poured in from across the footballing community, including players, coaches, supporters, and even rival clubs. Several Rotherham players took to social media to extend their congratulations, with team captain Sean Morrison posting, “Massive congrats to the gaffer and his partner! Welcome to the world, little ones!”
Hamshaw is expected to take a brief leave from coaching duties to spend time with his family, with assistant staff stepping in to oversee training sessions. The club confirmed it fully supports the coach’s decision to prioritise family during this special time.
Fans gathered outside the New York Stadium shared their joy upon hearing the news. “It’s great to hear some good news for once — especially about someone who gives so much to the club,” said lifelong supporter Diane Cooper. “We wish him and his family all the happiness in the world.”
The names and genders of the twins have not yet been publicly disclosed, but sources close to the family say both babies were born healthy and full of energy — a fitting trait for the children of a football coach known for his enthusiasm and energy on the sidelines.
As Hamshaw embarks on this exciting new chapter of fatherhood, the entire Rotherham United community stands beside him, cheering him on in life just as passionately as they do on the pitch.
Congratulations, Matt and family!
