“Big news! At 3.04am this morning we welcomed the newest member of our family,” she wrote in a Facebook post on Sunday morning.
“I genuinely wasn’t planning to cycle in labour, but it did end up happening.
“My contractions weren’t that bad when we left at 2am to go to the hospital – though they were 2-3 min apart and picking up in intensity by the time we arrived 10 minutes later.”

Genter said she was “blessed” for the care she received in her “fast and happily uncomplicated” birth.
“Now we have a healthy, happy little one sleeping, as is her dad,” she shared.
The news comes after the MP made headlines in 2018 when she rode a bike to the hospital to induce labour for her son.
Sometimes when a business is growing, it needs a little help.
Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
