On May 4, 2020, Suresh Raina took to his Instagram handle to post a lovely family picture of himself with his wife, Priyanka Raina, little Gracia Raina and the new member of their family, little baby boy, Rio Raina. They looked as if they were sweating out in the gym, just before the picture was taken. Little Gracia can be seen sitting on daddy's lap, while baby Rio was cuddled in the arms of his Mommy, Priyanka. He captioned the picture as "Happy & healthy parents, raise happy & healthy children. Lockdown has taught us various ways to strengthen the bond & love each other in unusual ways. At the same time, it’s disturbing to read about how exponentially the number of child abuse & domestic violence cases have grown around the world during this pandemic. I urge anyone who is facing such violence please reach out for help & don’t shut yourself. #familyiseverything #loveyourfamily #saynotodomesticviolence #saynotochildabuse @priyankacraina @rainagracia #RioRaina."
