Taylor Townsend’s heartwarming reunion with her son Adyn has drawn endearing reactions from the likes of Ben Shelton and Ons Jabeur. Townsend shared a glimpse of the wholesome moment after spending nearly two months away from the four-year-old while competing in Europe.
Townsend recently returned home after her demanding campaign at the Wimbledon Championships, having taken part in the singles, women’s doubles and mixed doubles categories. Although she suffered early exits in the singles and mixed doubles events, the American and Katerina Siniakova reached the semifinals in the women’s doubles tournament. However, the duo fell short of defending their title after losing to Hsieh Su-wei and Jelena Ostapenko.
Since returning home, Taylor Townsend has been unwinding by spending quality time with her son. Ahead of the North American hardcourt swing, the 29-year-old shared an adorable clip, which showed the “priceless” moment when Adyn excitedly rushed to greet her after they were reunited after seven weeks apart.
