NRL star Reece Walsh shares ‘beautiful’ tribute to daughter Leila: ‘With me every step of the way!’

NRL star Reece Walsh is basking in fatherhood and life as a single dad.

The Broncos star, 21, melted hearts on Tuesday as he shared a sweet tribute post to his daughter Leila, two.

“With me every step of the way!” he captioned his post, including with it some short clips and pictures of the pair together.

In one image, little Leila can be seen holding a microphone while on the footy field, presumably after watching her dad play, and in another, the pair brushed their teeth together.

“You’re a good young dad, great work,” one follower commented underneath.

Another added: “Omg this is absolutely beautiful, this is cuteness overload right here.”

“Having a daughter changes you man. You are a great dad. Catch you soon legend,” another wrote.

He previously described his tiny tot as his “greatest blessing”.

Walsh shares Leila with his ex-partner Freda Puru. They welcomed Leila in 2021.

Walsh previously played for the New Zealand Warriors but now plays for the Brisbane Broncos.

In September, he credited his daughter to “calming him down” and said he loves being a dad.

“She has been awesome for me. She calms me down,” he said at the time, according to the ABC.

”Not everything is about footy and a job. When I am in the [Broncos] facility, I am the footy player.

“When I step out and see my little one and my family, I am Dad.”
