Northampton Saints rugby star Dylan Hartley celebrates birth of his child

By , Staff Reporter
Northampton Saints hooker Dylan Hartley confirms the birth of his child on social media.

Northampton Saints hooker Dylan Hartley has been celebrating following the birth of his child on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old, who will not play a part in England's World Cup campaign next month, announced the news on social media.

The sportsman uploaded a black and white image to his Instagram page of his baby's hand grabbing his index finger.

Back in May, England head coach Stuart Lancaster dropped Hartley from the World Cup squad after he was handed a four-week ban for headbutting an opponent while playing for Northampton.
