One day on from the birth of his first child, radio host Kyle Sandilands has given his co-host Jackie O her first look at her new godson.
And the heartwarming moment played out live on-air, as Sandilands brought cameras inside the hospital to see how his fiance Tegan Kynaston and their newborn son Otto were both doing.
Sandilands told listeners he didn’t cry during the birth, but that it was “an overwhelming feeling,” particularly as Tegan had a cesarean section, which “petrified” him.
“They put up a sheet, and then I could see (her) intestines,” he said.
Sandilands then wheeled baby Otto into view, the newborn looking peaceful as he slept in a cot.
Also making a brief appearance on camera: Kyle’s Tegan, dressed in a black silk gown and up and walking just a day after her C-section birth.
“Oh my god, she looks fabulous,” said Jackie O.
“I said, it looks like you’ve had a baby on Day of Our Lives,” Kyle said.
Kyle, a first-time dad at 51, was beaming with pride as he told his longtime co-host about his plans for fatherhood.
“You are going to give Otto the life you always wanted. The chandeliers, the gold crib, and everything gold,” said Jackie O.
Tegan went into labor midway through Thursday’s episode of The Kyle and Jackie O Showforcing Kyle off-air as he made a desperate dash to the hospital to be by her side.
“I think I might have to leave the show… and go to the hospital,” he said.
“Oh, it’s time!” said his elated co-host.
“Calm down, we don’t want the kid coming too soon,” he said. “Guys, I’m so sorry. I feel very unprepared. I’ve got to run … I feel like I’m abandoning you, but I’m there for my child.”
A short time later came the happy news: All had gone well and Kyle and Tegan were now proud parents to baby Otto.
Speaking on-air today, Sandilands revealed the couple had organized an at-home nurse to stay with them when the new family leaves hospital.
And that house is a sprawling Bellevue Hill mansion that Sandilands paid a whopping $13.8m for in June.
The family’s new home features five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a two-car garage, a plunge pool, spacious wine cellar, and lift access to all four of its spacious levels.
Kyle and Tegan announced they were expecting back in February – the same month they had an extravagant gender reveal party on a yacht in Sydney Harbour, where they announced they were having a boy.
