Gold medal gymnasts Nadia Comaneci & Bart Conner expecting first child - a boy
Gold-medal gymnasts Nadia Comaneci, 44, and Bart Conner, 47, announced Tuesday they’re expecting their first child. The baby boy will be born in July. Nadia, who was the first to score a perfect 10 in Olympic history, spoke to the Associated Press today, saying,
"It’s a new chapter in our lives. I’m happy…It kind of makes my life and Bart’s life and our family’s lives complete. We are so ecstatic. It’s awesome…At this stage in our life, it’s wonderful news." [And] what a coincidence," Comaneci said, laughing. "We got married in 1996, I got my 10 in 1976. The baby is due to arrive in July, the month I scored the 10. We didn’t plan it that way, but what better timing. I was telling Bart that this looks like the perfect present for my 30th anniversary."

Romanian gymnast Nadia Comaneci captured hearts across the globe after her history-making perfect 10 in the 1976 Montreal Games, which landed her on the cover of TIME. Future husband Bart Conner, on the other hand, had already been won over.
Conner, an American gymnast, had kissed the 14-year-old Comaneci after both won at the American Cup International meet in New York City.
“After the meet, we stood together and raised these big silver cups,” Conner told People in 1995. “Some photographer said, ‘Why don’t you lean down and give her a little kiss?’ I did, and it ran in the paper the next day.”

It took 14 years and a harrowing escape from communist Romania for Comaneci and Conner to meet again, but the two finally began dating after Comaneci took a room in Conner’s Oklahoma home.
The gold-medalist couple (Conner snagged two golds in the 1984 Olympics) married in Romania in 1996 and had a son in 2006.
