Brittany Higgins and her husband reveal the name of their son in gushing Easter photos

Brittany Higgins and her husband David Sharaz have shared the name of their seven-week-old baby.

Sharaz revealed the name of their son, Frederick Leon Sharaz, in a heartwarming post on Sunday.

‘The best kind of Easter egg we’ve ever received,’ the dad captioned a series of family pics.

‘Baby Frederick Leon Sharaz’s first Easter.’

The boy’s middle name appears to be a touching tribute to Ms Higgins’ personal lawyer, Leon Zwier. 

The former political staffer and her ex-journalist husband were flooded with high-profile messages of support after announcing the birth of their son on March 2. 

Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, Marie Claire editor Georgie McCourt, The Block judge Shayna Blaze and Olympic swimmer Leisel Jones were among the well-wishers. 

The heartfelt messages were well-earned, following what Higgins in October described as an ‘acutely stressful’ pregnancy.

The couple had a stressful pregnancy

At the time, Higgins shared the results of a second trimester blood test which, she said, revealed a ‘high possibility of a genetic disorder’. 

Higgins said the genetic disorder itself wouldn’t have concerned the couple, but meant the baby might be ‘incompatible’ with life beyond the pregnancy. 

Compounding the stress were an ongoing defamation trial brought against Higgins by her former boss, Liberal Senator Linda Reynolds, and the death of her grandmother. 

After moving into a French chateau in late 2023, the couple were forced to list the property for sale to cover the costs of the defamation suit. 

In January, the couple lowered the listing price for their French chateau to €367,500 (AUD $620,000) from an initial listing price of €420,000 (AUD $722,000).

Higgins and Sharaz bought the three-bedroom estate after settling a suit against the federal government for $2.4million.

Higgins said she held onto about $1.9million after fees and taxes.
