Bundee Aki has revealed he became a father for the fifth time on the day of the British & Irish Lions’ first Test against Australia.

The 35-year-old Connacht and Ireland centre was talking after the Lions’ 22-12 third Test defeat to the Wallabies in Sydney as the touring party minds turned to celebrating a 2-1 series win and Aki’s thoughts were of a family reunion and a first meeting with newborn baby Áine, who joins siblings Armani-Jade, Adrianna, Andronicus and Ailbhe.
