Warriors star Michaela Brake reveals baby news

Sun, Aug 17

Warriors NRLW star Michaela Brake has announced she is having a baby with husband Michael Brake.

The 29-year-old winger took to social media this morning to share the news, posting a photo of her dog Honey with the caption "Baby Brake coming March 2026".

Brake had not been seen on the field since the team's 20-10 loss to the Titans last month, after being sidelined for personal reasons.

A double Olympic gold medallist and former Black Ferns Sevens player, Brake is new to rugby league this season.

She has been the face of the Warriors NRLW 2025 campaign, starting the first four matches and improving with each game.

She married her husband, Michael earlier this year in January.
