Darts cult hero reveals he and his wife expecting baby boy… exactly nine months after he won the Masters
DARTS star Stephen Bunting has revealed that he and his wife are expecting a baby boy in November – but one fan hilariously noticed the timing of the due date.
The 39-year-old announced on Wednesday via social media that he will become a dad again to a boy.
He made the news by sharing a gender reveal video in which his young son Tobias popped a giant balloon outside of their family home.
Hordes of blue confetti came out of the balloon, revealing that the sex would be male of the new arrival.
Bunting posted the clip and captioned it with: “ITS A BOY. Baby bullet due early November 2024.
“Me, Keila and Tobias are over the moon. Looking forward to welcoming our baby boy into this world.”
However, it did not take long for one of his followers to work out when it was conceived.
With the due date being in early November, they spotted that it was exactly nine months after Bunting’s Masters triumph in February.
Replying to the much-loved darts ace, they said: “Due exactly 9 months after he won the Masters. That’s why he’s the [goat emoji].”
Soon plenty more of his fans were joining in the fun on X.

“The celebrations went well then,” joked one.
While a third said: “So more trophies = More Bunting babies. Not sure his house is gonna be able to fit all these children.”
Bunting beat three-time world champ Michael van Gerwen to win the Cazoo Masters title in Milton Keynes.
The next day, he hilariously recreated Lionel Messi’s World Cup celebration picture as he lay with his trophy in bed.
Sharing that brilliant snap on X, he accompanied it with a caption that read: “It wasn’t a dream.
“Honestly woke up every hour through the night to keep checking the trophy was still there.
“So proud of my performances this weekend.
“I would just like to thank all the fans, my family, management and all my sponsors.
“Without you guys this would never be possible. Love you all xxx.”
