Ciara and Wilson tied the knot in July 2016 and together are parents to daughter Sienna Princess, 4, and son Win Harrison, 9 months.

Last month, the family enjoyed a festive Easter celebration of which Wilson shared snapshots to Instagram. In the colorful photos, the family is all dressed up sitting together with the Easter bunny. "Our babies," the NFL athlete captioned one of his posts, adding two red hearts and tagging his wife.

Ciara also posted several photos and videos from the holiday, which her family celebrated with Bryant and her daughters Natalia, 18, Bianka, 4, and 22-month-old Capri.

In February, Ciara opened up about her husband's parenting skills, saying it's "the most sexy" thing about him.

"I feel like, if I could look back in a crystal ball when I was a little girl and I looked at the idea of my family and what it would be for me, it's exactly this," Ciara told GQ in the couple's joint cover story.

Continuing to explain the quarterback's relationship with their children as an attractive quality, the singer said, "Russ — I mean, he did talk about, you know, how he feels and this passion from a father's perspective, but what's always been beautiful about Russ is just to see him from day one, excitingly jumping in and changing diapers."

Ciara added, "He's obviously really beautiful to me in every way, but the father in him is by far one of the things that makes him the most sexy to me. Hot. To me it's hot."
