KIIS FM radio host Kyle Sandilands can’t seem to wipe the smile off his face following the birth of his first child with his fiancée, Tegan Kynaston.

WATCH: Kyle Sandilands shows off baby Otto

Following the birth of their son Otto, The Kyle and Jackie O Instagram account shared a slew of sweet snaps which show the shock jock looking every inch a proud dad as he smiles at his little bundle of joy. 

The first showed a beaming Kyle and Tegan in their first family snap after welcoming the tiny tot. 

“Welcome to the world, Otto Dalton Sandilands!” the picture is captioned.

Kyle’s celebrity pals were quick to gush over his baby boy, with Dannii Minogue commenting, “Cutest photo. Congratulations,” while singer Kate Ceberano also sent her well wishes to the radio host.

The second snap, taken by midwife Vicki Rushton, shows Kyle in awe of baby Otto as he holds the swaddled bub shortly after his birth.

The 51-year-old also revealed that he and Tegan have been in a “love bubble” since the birth of their first child.

“We just keep looking at him, and then we look at each other and smile and one of us has a little tear roll down,” he admitted.

The sweet snaps come following Kyle sharing a video of Otto on The Kyle and Jackie O Show last week.

“Here he is!” he announced in the clip, panning the camera across to his son who was wrapped in a colourful blanket.

“Oh he’s so cute! Look at him,” Jackie exclaimed from the radio studio.

“I do think it does look like you Kyle.”

She then asked what colour Otto’s hair was.

“I thought it was like a strawberry, brown-y, goopy bit of whatever in there,” he said.

Someone else chimed in that they saw the resemblance in Otto’s “round face”, to which an affronted Kyle replied, “Excuse me!”.

He also shared some more details following his son’s birth, saying, “Otto is born, Otto is fabulous, I cut the cord, I didn’t realise it was like tough calamari, and blood squirted out.”

He added that Tegan had remained in hospital after the delivery, but all was well with mum and bub.

“The baby is all clear but because Tegan had a caesarean she’s just got to keep that monitored, but she’s doing well,” he said.
