I always wanted Orion to have a sibling; Yuvraj Singh is a hands on father-Hazel Keech

On August 25, cricketer Yuvraj Singh and his wife, actor Hazel Keech Singh, were thrilled to share the news of the couple welcoming their second child, daughter Aura into their lives. She was born in mid July. For the first time, Hazel shares her thoughts on her newborn daughter, pregnancy and more.
The actress told Bombay Times, “I always wanted Orion to have a sibling. I feel like siblings teach you to share, they teach you about compassion, and they teach you that other people are going to be different from you - bigger, stronger, shorter. They teach you a kind of tolerance that you could only learn at home before you go to school and into the real world. Also, a sibling, whether you get on or not, you kind of always know in the world that you have someone who will be there on your journey with you. I feel blessed to have a boy and a girl. Orion's the only boy in my family as we are all girls. It's nice that Orion has a younger sister and I'm glad that Yuvi also has a daughter because I feel there's a certain kind of softness that comes when a man becomes a father of a girl.”
She elaborated, “I feel very lucky to have been able to have two children. My pregnancy was much easier this time around though recovery is a little slow because now I have a toddler who just learned to walk and now is running everywhere. So, I'm trying to give him as much attention as I can while fulfilling all my newborn duties of feeding and burping and just trying to be as aware and attentive mum as I can.”
The delivery happened in London. Not many knew that Hazel and Yuvraj were expecting their second child so everyone was pleasantly surprised. Speaking of keeping it low-key, Hazel added, “I do prefer to keep my private life private. Pregnancy is such a delicate journey for everyone and it's so personal, you never know what can happen at any stage. I prefer to let my children just be children rather than celebrities from before they're born. They should have every chance to make mistakes and not have pressure to be a certain way because of the public eye because people are judging them and watching them. We choose to be celebrities. We choose to share our lives with the world, the public and the media. But children don't have a choice in that. So, Yuvi and I choose to let them just be children.”
Hazel is all praises for Yuvraj. She reveals, "Yuvi is a hands-on father and he's just amazing with both of our children. He knows how to burp the baby, change nappies, put them to bed, and bathe. Because he travels so much, these small, small things make the bond with him and Orion so strong. So, both my children are daddy's boy and daddy's girl. When he leaves the room, Aura starts crying. When I can't calm her down, Yuvi holds her and she thinks because he's so tall and strong, he's like this big mountain of support. They feel so safe and secure in his arms, which makes me fall in love with him all over again. I’m proud of the father he’s become and the man he’s growing into."
Yuvi is at a stage where he can give time to his family: Shabnam Singh, Yuvraj’s mom
"I have two sons. I always wanted a daughter. Mujhe laga jaise meri icchha puri ho gayi. I have a granddaughter now. You can dress up little girls in various clothes like lehenga choli, different accessories, something you can’t do with boys. I missed doing all of this when my boys were growing up. I am so happy for Hazel and Yuvraj. I am proud to see Yuvi as a hands-on father who is equally involved in the baby duties - changing diapers etc. I am glad he is at a stage in his life where he can give enough time to his family and see his kids growing up. I remember Sachin Tendulkar saying that he missed out on seeing his children grow as he was constantly travelling and playing cricket at the time. Yuvi has that opportunity so I am happy for him, also daughters always have a special bond with their fathers."
Yuvraj Singh to turn producer; all set to launch brother Zorawar in Bollywood?

Cricketer Yuvraj Singh, who tied the knot with Bollywood starlet Hazel Keech last year, has big plans to dive into the movie-making business. What’s more, the stylish southpaw also intends to launch his younger brother, Zorawar, in films. Insiders inform Yuvi, along with mother Shabnam, has held several meetings with well known film producers and financiers in this regard.
Says a source close to one of the financiers, “He is looking at investing big bucks in his brother’s launch pad. Yuvi and Shabnam are in constant touch with the producers and have urged them to up the film’s scale.”
Last year, Zorawar found himself in the thick of a controversy after his estranged wife, Akanksha Sharma, levelled domestic abuse charges against the Singhs on an episode of Bigg Boss 10. Counter allegations followed and the matter hit headlines until eventually fading out. According to Akanksha, Zorawar “does nothing” for a living, but given his good looks, sources say, Yuvraj felt he could give a shot at acting.
“Zorawar has been asked to lose weight as soon as possible. But otherwise, the producers have agreed to all of Yuvraj’s terms and conditions. Hunt for the leading lady and rest of the cast is underway. Once the main cast is ready, an announcement will be made,” adds the insider.
