Alfredo Morelos and wife Yesenia baptise baby daughter Leonela in sweet ceremony

Rangers star Alfredo Morelos and his wife Yesenia celebrated the baptism of their one-year-old daughter Leonela.

The couple, who are currently holidaying in Colombia, shared the sweet snaps of their little girl's big day on social media.

In one Instagram post shared by the Gers player 's wife Yesenia, little Leonela can be seen looking extremely cute in a white bonnet and baptism gown as she's held by a relative as the caption reads: "Baptism of Leonela."

In the next snap, the proud parents both donned white clothing with protective face masks as they lit a candle for their little girl's baptism ceremony.

The pair, who are originally from Colombia but currently live in Glasgow, have been holidaying in Mayapo La Guajira Columbia before the Ibrox star returns to his football duties but made their return home a bit more special by having their daughter baptised.

But it was also double celebrations as yesterday, Yesenia shared pictures from her birthday party.

The besotted mum-of-one said: "Thank you God for allowing me to celebrate another year of life with my beautiful family by my side, surrounded by so much love.

The couple are known for their extravagant celebrations as every month leading up to the tot's first birthday, Yesenia and her husband threw mini 'month parties' for their first born.

For her tenth month celebration, Leonela posed next to a 10 balloon surrounded by cupcakes and a main cake and did the same to mark 11 months but when it came to the big 1st birthday celebration the couple went all out.

Leonela turned one in May this year and her doting parents threw a Disney themed bash.

The pair decided to opt for a Moana party with hundreds of balloons, cakes and dancing.

They even had huge light up letters spelling out the tot's name.
