Hey there, everyone! Let’s take a moment to celebrate something truly special. Dancing With the Stars alum Karina Smirnoff has just introduced the world to her adorable new baby boy, Theo Gabriel. She shared the first glimpse of her little bundle of joy on Instagram, where she posted a sweet photo of Theo’s tiny feet. “Welcome to the world, Theo Gabriel! 💖💖💖,” Karina captioned the heartwarming post on Wednesday, April 8. This is such a beautiful moment, and it’s clear that Karina is absolutely glowing as a new mom.
Of course, the comments section quickly filled with love and support from friends and fans alike. Professional dancer Lindsay Arnold chimed in with, “Congrats, beautiful mama!!!!!! So happy for you!!” adding four red heart emojis for extra emphasis. Another fan commented, “OMG! So beyond happy for you. Sending so much love!!!” It’s always amazing to see how much joy a new baby can bring to everyone around them, isn’t it?

Bringing New Life Into the World
Just a few days before sharing this adorable photo, Karina welcomed Theo into her life. A source close to her told People on April 1, “Karina and baby are healthy and well. She’s already head over heels in love. She’s excited for the next journey.” Can you imagine that feeling? It’s like stepping into a whole new chapter of life, full of wonder and love.
Pregnancy Journey: Support and Excitement
Throughout her pregnancy, Karina couldn’t stop talking about the overwhelming support she received from friends and family. In December 2019, she opened up to People about it, saying, “Everyone has been so great, gracious, and has given me so much information. I’m just trying to keep up! But, I’m very grateful for the gift I’ve been given. I can’t wait to be a mom.” That’s such a beautiful sentiment, isn’t it? The excitement and gratitude she feels are palpable.
As Karina reflected on her emotions during this time, she shared, “I have so many emotions that I’m going through. I’m nervous, excited, over the moon happy, and overwhelmed.” It’s completely natural to feel all of those things when you’re about to become a parent. It’s a life-changing experience, and it sounds like Karina is embracing it fully.
A Legacy of Dance
Karina, the season 13 winner of Dancing With the Stars, didn’t disclose the identity of Theo’s father, but she did share her hopes for her baby’s future. She mentioned that her little one will grow up to become an excellent dancer, just like his mom. That’s quite the legacy to pass down, isn’t it? With Karina’s talent and passion for dance, I’m sure Theo will have some big shoes to fill—or should I say, some big dance moves to master.
