Rugby players are much more than what we seem them on the pitch. There is much more to them than just scoring tries, side-stepping past two-three defenders and making bone-crunching tackles.

Off the pitch, they all have their own personal lives where they bond with their family and loved ones. And like every other human being of the modern world, they do not refrain from expressing their love for their family and loved ones on social networking platforms.

Some of the world renowned rugby players are fathers, and they often post pictures with their children on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram among others.

Here, are the most adorable pictures of six top rugby players with their children.

1. Jack Nowell

Arguably the best winger in the world right now, Nowell is also a loving family man. We all know that the Exeter speedster leads a private life off the pitch. However, as is evident from his numerous posts on social media, he loves his family and regards it as the most important part of his life.

2. Joe Launchbury

On the pitch, he is a respected figure. He has won numerous laurels during his career and regarded as one of England’s best forwards today. The picture of him with his daughter all suited up is too adorable.

3. Taulupe Faletau

The powerhouse is one of the most lethal back-rowers in the world. On the pitch, the Wales international is known for his ball carrying and tackling abilities. Off the pitch, he is a loving father who spends a lot of time with his daughter, Israel.

4. Stuart Hogg

The fullback is perhaps the best player Scotland has ever produced, certainly one of the bests. He is known for his incredible pace and lung-busting breaks. He married his long-term partner Gillian in 2016, with who he has two kids, Archie and Olivia.

5. Rory Best

The father of three is a committed family man. Home is his beef and tillage farm in rural County Down, where he lives with his wife, Jodie, and their three children, Ben (seven), Penny (five) and two-year-old Richie.

6. Dylan Hartley

The hooker is the highest all-time appearance makers for England. On the pitch, he has had some problems but he has clearly calmed down in the last few years, which corresponds with him becoming a father to a beautiful little girl called, Thea.
