NRL star Luke Burgess and his fiancée Tori May welcome their second child and confirm the little one's adorable name

As an ardent follower of Luke Burgess’s remarkable journey, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of joy and admiration when I hear about his latest milestone – the birth of his second child, Jackson Mark Burgess. The man is a veritable rugby league legend, having made a name for himself not just in the UK with Leeds Rhinos, but also Down Under with South Sydney Rabbitohs.


As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share some delightful news: my world has expanded yet again with the arrival of our little one! My partner, Tori, and I are proud parents to our newest addition, Jackson Mark Burgess. He joins his big sister in making our family complete. It’s a beautiful feeling that words can hardly express!

On a day that felt like pure bliss, I, a die-hard fan, couldn’t help but share the exhilarating news that spilled from my beloved NRL hero, aged 37, and his partner, Tori. They graced our Instagram feeds with a heartwarming post on this very Wednesday, a moment etched in my memory forever.

The pair, who have a daughter named Charlotte, too, posted a sweet collection of images featuring their freshly arrived little one.

They revealed the charming name they chose for their young child, sharing an honest glimpse into their personal family affairs with their followers.

‘An incredibly memorable occasion as we welcomed our baby boy into life. An exceptional effort by Mom ensured a safe delivery for him.’

He exceeds all our expectations and more, making us incredibly thankful for the precious gift of our newborn son.

‘Welcome to the world Jackson Mark Burgess. 24/9/24.’

The well-known friends and admirers of the pair rushed to the comment area to extend their warm wishes and congratulations to the joyful couple.

‘So much love fambam. What a special lil man,’ Joanna Burgess wrote.

‘Congratulations to you all and another boy to add to your tribe well done,’ another person said. 

‘Congrats Tori & Luke! You look exceptionally fresh for just having given birth! Enjoy your newest angel, lots of love,’ a third comented.

The pair, who became engaged the previous year, generally prefer to maintain a low profile regarding their romantic and family affairs, occasionally posting scarcely seen glimpses on Instagram.

On Easter Sunday, they announced on Instagram that they were anticipating the arrival of their second child as a pair.

Tori posted images of her growing belly and an ultrasound snapshot, enthusiastically announcing the joyous news to her followers.

‘One of us had a few too many Easter choccy eggs,’ Tori joked in a caption.

In early 2020, the smitten pair began their romantic journey together, and they got engaged at Shelly Beach in New South Wales in December.

I proudly displayed my stunning engagement ring, accompanied by a captivating beachside pose alongside my beloved Luke, as I joyfully posted about our special moment.

In another photo, the affectionate couple was spotted sharing a kiss and embracing while rejoicing in their happy moment.

Luke captioned the moment with some tender words, writing: ’23/12/23… She said YES!

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but exclaim that wrapping up 2023 in this manner is nothing short of perfection! The anticipation for the commencement of this new journey we embark upon together is absolutely electrifying.

In addition, Luke has a daughter named Grace, aged eight, with his former partner Yolanda Hodgson, whom he was in a relationship with for seven years until they parted ways in 2019.

Initially, Luke gained recognition in the United Kingdom while playing for the Leeds Rhinos in the English Super League, clinching a championship in 2009.

Afterward, he relocated to Australia prior to the 2011 NRL season, securing a contract not only for himself but also for his brother Sam, along with twins George and Thomas, at the South Sydney Rabbitohs club.
