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

Sharaz shared the name of the couple’s son, Frederick Leon Sharaz, in a heartwarming post on Sunday.

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

‘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.

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.

The couple now reportedly plan to live in Melbourne’s east after marrying last year on the Gold Coast.

The payout came after the rape trial of her former colleague and fellow ex-political staffer Bruce Lehrmann was thrown out in response to juror misconduct in 2022.

The charges were later withdrawn altogether following concerns relating to Higgins’ mental health.

Last year, Lehrmann lost a multimillion-dollar defamation suit against presenter Lisa Wilkinson and the Ten Network over a 2021 interview with Higgins.

Federal Court Justice Michael Lee dismissed the case after finding that Lehrmann had, on the balance of probabilities, raped Higgins.

As a result, the 29-year-old was ordered to pay $2million in costs to the Ten Network.

Earlier this month, within days of the birth of Higgins’ child, Lehrmann filed submissions with the Federal Court in which his lawyer laid out the grounds of his appeal of Justice Lee’s decision.

Lehrmann has since been committed to stand trial in a Queensland rape case surrounding an incident alleged to have taken place in Brisbane’s west in 2021.

He has always maintained his innocence in both matters.
