Mel Reid and wife Carly announce they’re expecting first child

LPGA player Mel Reid and her wife Carly announced on social media Wednesday they’re expecting their first child. The couple married last April.

England’s Reid, 35, won her first LPGA title in 2020 at the ShopRite LPGA Classic and has represented Europe four times at the Solheim Cup, most recently in 2021.

Reid has competed five times on the LPGA this season and is currently No. 289 in the world. Carly is a senior PR and and social media manager at Betterworks.

LPGA Hall of Famer Inbee Park recently gave birth to her first child as did Germany’s Caroline Masson, whose husband, Jason McDede, caddies for World No. 1 Nelly Korda.

LPGA players Amy Olson and Sophia Popov are also expecting their first children in 2023.
