They recently admitted they have shunned magazine deals to show off their new little girl, but Gordon D’Arcy and Aoife Cogan looked ecstatic as they took her for a stroll yesterday.
The rugby star and former model welcomed their first child, daughter Soleil, in May, and although Gordon shared a snap of her tiny hands and feet on Instagram, their spokesperson ruled out the couple showing off the tot in a glossy magazine anytime soon.

Yesterday, the 35-year-old bearded sportsman was papped outside Butlers on Grafton Street with his three-month-old snuggled up in her pram, while his wife Aoife was inside getting coffees.
Gordon was pictured smiling down at his bundle of joy, and is quite obviously a very proud new dad. He looked casual on his day out in a grey tee and skinny jeans.

Meanwhile, yummy mummy Aoife looked hip as ever in a striped maxi teamed with baggy t-shirt, wedges and her hair tied up into a bun, along with a pair of sunnies.
And it seemed quite apt that the sun was shining in Dublin for baby’s day out – afterall, the child’s name translates as ‘sun’ in French. Poetic, eh?
