Media personality Ayanda Thabethe is filled with gratitude as she welcomes her second child into the world. 

“If you think my hands are full, you should take a look at my heart. Praise be to Jesus Christ/09.09.23,” she wrote on social media, announcing when her child was born.

In July she shared the pending arrival of baby number two and used a video to reveal the news.

“First came love, then came your brother and now you. We’re overjoyed to welcome and love the perfect little addition to our growing family,” she captioned the video.

Close friends and family of Ayanda soon donned white at the media personality's snowflake-themed baby shower in August. 

“My baby shower felt like something out of a fairy-tale. My little snowflake is on the way and we can’t wait to meet our little king,” she wrote. 

Last year, the first-time mom shared an emotional video showing a step by step journey of her pregnancy until the birth of her baby.

Ayanda has kept her son out of the spotlight so far, sharing only a few times how parenting in private has brought her more joy than she could ever have imagined.

SAFTA award-winning actor Bonko Khoza exclusively revealed to TshisaLIVE that their daughter Amahubo arrived three weeks ago and was settling well into parenthood.

“It's been good, and it's been tiring, but nothing beyond my abilities. From an actor's perspective, it's the late nights, which I feel like I've been used to. You focus on the child. From an energy point of view, they feel when you are giving them everything you have,” he said.

He's had the great support of his right-hand woman to ease him into this new chapter of his life.
