Fernando Alonso and his partner, Melissa Jimenez, welcomed their first child in the second half of March, marking a significant personal milestone for the Formula 1 racing star. Alonso initially announced the arrival of his son through social media, confirming the news to the public. Following a period of time spent at the maternity hospital, Alonso addressed the media, sharing his joy at becoming a father.
Until recently, the couple had kept the baby’s name private. On Tuesday, Alonso revealed the boy’s name: Leonard Alonso Jimenez. The announcement was made via his Instagram story, where he shared a photograph of the child’s passport, issued upon entry to the racing garage.
The passport serves as a tangible representation of the young boy’s introduction to his father’s profession. Alonso’s son is now officially documented as Leonard Alonso Jimenez, solidifying the family’s newest addition.
