It’s only been a few days since Gemma Dryburgh commented on an Instagram post that revealed Georgia Hall’s pregnancy. She congratulated her and said that the two will have a little one running around. While Hall’s pregnancy is due in early 2026, Dryburgh’s baby has arrived amid the LPGA off-season.

“It’s a boy! 💙 Welcome to the world wee Léo! We couldn’t be more excited to become a family of 3. 2026 is going to be a very special one! 🥰 Happy New Year,” Gemma Dryburgh wrote in the caption of her Instagram post.

Dryburgh, 32, and her partner, Anne-Lise Bidou, welcomed their first child at the Ochsner Baptist Hospital in New Orleans. The Scottish LPGA Tour pro named her child Léo. The carousel Instagram post shows the couple standing beside a Christmas tree, holding baby Léo. In the second post of the carousel, the two can be seen bringing their little one home.

In 2025, Dryburgh teed off in 23 events. She recorded two top-20 finishes at the JM Eagle LA Championship and the Dana Open. Although she did not have a good start in Major championships, her 2025 golf season reflected steady consistency.

Her partner, Anne-Lise Bidou, is a physiotherapist on the LPGA Tour. She is a familiar presence around golfers and practice areas. Bidou has supported multiple tour professionals through injury prevention and performance-focused care. The couple had announced their pregnancy in September 2025, with Léo’s due date projected around the holiday season.

As the tour pauses between seasons, Dryburgh’s announcement adds a meaningful personal storyline heading into 2026. After the news came out, fellow LPGA stars poured heartfelt messages in comments.
