Kyle Sandilands, the Australian radio personality known for his unfiltered style and larger-than-life presence, has often been in the public eye for both his controversial remarks and his personal life. However, behind the scenes, Sandilands has built a life with his wife, Tegan Kynaston, and their growing family.
Despite his bold public persona, the radio host’s journey to fatherhood and his marriage to Kynaston shows a different side of the man behind the microphone, and fans are eager to learn more about the couple’s life away from the airwaves.
As the couple continue to celebrate their latest family milestones, we take a closer look at Kyle Sandilands’ romance and family life.
Who is Kyle Sandilands’ wife?
Kyle Sandilands has been married to 38-year-old Tegan Kynaston since April 2023.
The pair were friends for four or five years, moving in the same social circles while Sandilands, now 53, was in a relationship with socialite, Imogen Anthony.
Then, in 2017 Kynaston reached out to him, asking for a job and he hired her as an office manager for his media company King Kyle.
The pair kept their relationship strictly business but when Sandilands’ eight-year relationship with Anthony crumbled he admits Kynaston became his rock.
“I was single for a while, and I leaned on [Tegan] a lot,” the KIIS FM presenter told the Daily Mail.
Living in a hotel for months while he got through his heartbreak he started to see Kynaston as more than just a friend and confidant.
“She was single and I was single for the first time [in a while]. And I think we never really thought of each other in that way, we just appreciated each other and were genuinely friends. And it just blossomed from there,” he said.
The pair went Instagram official on December 6, 2019, when they were photographed having a drink together on Kynaston’s Instagram. Then on New Year’s Eve, there was a photo of Kynaston kissing Sandilands and the relationship officially had lifted off.
It wasn’t long before Sandilands popped the question.
In January 2022, during a holiday at his house in Port Douglas, he got down on one knee with a sparkler worth an estimated $1.14 million.
“Tegan’s ring is an emerald-cut diamond set on a split shank platinum band,” Tobias Kormind, the managing director of Europe’s largest online diamond jeweller, 77 Diamonds, told the Daily Mail.
“[It would be] worth over $1.14million for a decent quality diamond, at least F colour, VS1 clarity.”
Does Kyle Sandilands have children?
Sandilands and Kynaston welcomed their first child, son Otto, on August 18, 2022.
The couple announced their pregnancy one month after their engagement, with Sandilands sharing the news on air.
“I’m having a baby, baby!” he told listeners, with the couple sharing the arrival of their newborn to social media shortly after Otto’s birth.
Two years after they welcomed their first child, Sandilands revealed on air in November 2024 that he and Kynaston had begun planning to welcome a second child in 2025.
During a discussion with The Kyle and Jackie O Show’s in-house psychic Georgina Walker, Walker shared that she had a strong feeling that Kynaston may soon be expecting – noting that she predicted her previous pregnancy before it had been announced.
“If you’re thinking of not having another baby, maybe you need to take a bit of precaution, because [the feeling] was just so overwhelming,” she shared, with Sandilands responding, “Well, only yesterday were [Tegan and I] talking about maybe planning for another child next year.”
What does Tegan Kynaston do?
Previously, Kynaston worked in advertising and in 2017 went to work for Sandilands as an office manager.
In January 2019, before they were a couple the pair launched their own sangria brand Nueva Drinks Co.
