Rob Van Dam has done it all in the world of professional wrestling. He’s won multiple championships, been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, and now Van Dam is officially a father.
PEOPLE is reporting that Rob Van Dam and Katie Forbes welcomed twin girls on December 26th. It was noted that the girls, named Karma Star Szatkowski and Saba Zen Szatkowski, were born prematurely. According to the report Karma weighed 3 lbs., 14 oz. and measured 17.3 inches, and Saba weighed 4 lbs., 8.6 oz. and measured 18 inches. It was also noted that Saba is named after Sabu.
“After a long journey in the NICU, our sweet Saba is finally home after 7 weeks, reunited with her twin sister Karma, who spent 5 weeks there herself. Both babies are healthy, thriving, and so deeply loved,” the couple told PEOPLE.
The couple also talked about how hard it was to leave their children in the NICU every day for weeks, but added how happy they are to finally have them home.
“The babies came early, so they had to stay in the NICU to keep developing. Karma was there for 4 weeks and Saba for 7. We visited, held, and fed them every day and watched them overcome obstacles until they were ready to come home.
“It was really hard and sad to leave them each day, but we trusted they were in good hands with the nurses, doctors, and all the equipment. Our family is finally back together, and we are absolutely over the moon and soaking in every precious moment.”
Congratulations to Rob Van Dam and Katie Forbes.
