The post was flooded with messages of love from family, friends and fans.

“Can’t wait for our baby girl 🥹😭 we love yous (sic) so much,” said Leone Crichton, whose NRL star husband Stephen is a cousin of Crichton-Ropati.

Stephen’s sister Harmony added: “What a blessinggg🥹🥹🥹 congratulations fam 💖.”

Tuesday Rovere, who has worked with To’o’s NRL club Penrith, said: “congratulations you guys, this is so special”.

That To’o’s post was inundated with love is no surprise, given how admired he is by fans around the league.

And we got a reminder of just why he is so popular on Wednesday night, when To’o was lauded for a classy gesture towards opposition captain Cameron Munster.

To’o paid tribute to the Maroons skipper’s late father, who died in the leadup to game three, by writing Steven Munster’s name on his arm tape before the game.

The Penrith star later shared a video of his forearm, taken pre-match, which showed the message among a number of other personal details he carried with him onto Accor Stadium.

Steven’s name was written and underlined next to a religious cross and a love heart.

“No weapon formed against me. Go time baby. Rest in love Steven Munster,” To’o captioned the video.

The classy act didn’t go unnoticed from fans, who celebrated To’o’s thoughtfulness.

“Brian To’o isn’t just my favourite player for his on-field performances, it’s stuff like this which is why I love this dude so much,” one Panthers fan said.

“Cameron Munster was his rival last night and he still wrote Cam’s dads name on his wrist tape.

“Pure class right here, rest in peace Steven Munster.”
