Candice and David Warner were married in April 2015 and had their first daughter Ivy Mae on Sept. 11, 2014. David Warner’s wife Candice Warner is an Australian professional ironwoman and model. She first competed professionally when she was 14 years old in the Ironman series. At the age of 16, she became a NSW state ironwoman champion. Ironwoman Candice qualified for a spot in the 2008 Nutri-Grain Ironman & Ironwoman Series in January 2008.

The 29-year-old Aussie cricketer, surely bowled over by the family addition, has taken some time off from his busy schedule. He will be returning on Jan. 20 to Manuka Oval, Canberra for the fourth match of the India Australia Series 2016. He played the first day match against India on Tuesday and has played all the six Test matches against West Indies and New Zealand. Australia won the opening match by five wickets against India in Perth on Tuesday.

According to The Sydney Morning Herald, as David was unavailable for the India-Australia one day match at Gabba, Brisbane on Friday, Usman Khwaja returned to the team after three years.
