Reading a text message out, Sandilands told co-host Jackie Henderson and listeners: “Miss Aria was born to Sammie and Nick at 3:58 this morning.”
“Oh, you’re an uncle,” Henderson said.
“Oh, little Aria, how sweet,” Sandilands replied.
“I didn’t even know her kid was pregnant, so that’s quite the surprise ... my sister is 60.”
He went on to share the long-winded link between him and the newborn: “I’m the great uncle of my step-sister’s adopted children’s child. That’s family, in any way shape or form”.
Henderson asked if he would respond to the happy news, to which Sandilands said, “Probably not”.
It comes after the radio host’s discussion about expanding his family with his wife Tegan Sandilands.
They have a son, Otto, aged two.

Speaking with model Miranda Kerr, Sandilans shared his thoughts.
“Do you think I should have another baby because I only have the one?” he asked on the Kyle and Jackie O Show in April.
Kerr was quick to tell him yes before he added, “I have to ask because some people say three kids is the marriage killer”.

Just months after his birth, Sandilands was already discussing expanding their family.
“We did talk about another one, possibly we started talking about that on the weekend,” he told Henderson in October 2022.
“Ah two hey, that might be nice, just do it quickly back to back,” advised Henderson, who has a daughter of her own.
“Nah,” Sandilands uttered.
“She’s breezed through it, she can do it,” Henderson said of his then-fiancee’s pregnancy and recovery.
Sandilands said he had to remind his partner that just because Otto has “been easy” does not mean the second child will be.
The couple were married in April 2023.

They have long since referred to Otto as a “unicorn baby,” easily falling asleep and behaving.
Otto celebrated his first birthday in August 2023 with a party worth $25,000.
“It’s only $25,000,” Sandilands said on his radio show in August.
“It’s a watered-down type of party.”
Sandilands also noted that the $25,000 didn’t include other sundry party supplies that his wife had already bought.
“Like the lollies, the bonbonniere, and the plates and all these weird tablecloths ... these are eight-foot tablecloths,” he said.
The over-the-top party was held at their family home in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, with a theme of Otto’s Jungle.
