The 16th world champion, Norwegian grandmaster Magnus Carlsen, spoke about his first parenting experience.
Idman.Biz reports that Karlsen became a father for the first time on September 27, 2025. His son was born.
"Of course, his mood is always good and bad: sometimes good, sometimes bad, but it's a joy. He's a very good boy and I have a very good wife who takes very good care of him with me. Everything is great.
The first few nights were very difficult, I think that's normal. After that everything got better. I usually go to bed early and I usually change diapers often at night. I've just learned to decide for myself when to go to bed. Overall, I'd say everything is fine. I sleep less than before, but not much less," NRK quotes Karlsen as saying.
