Kyle Sandilands Says He Has No Problem If His Son Otto Goes Gay: ‘I Just Want Him To Be Safe And Loved’
Kyle Sandilands is known for his outspoken opinions on almost every subject.
And on Saturday, the KIIS FM star showed a softer side as he opened up about the joys of being a new dad and the hopes he has for his son.
The radio host, 51, and his fiancée Tegan Kynaston, 36, welcomed their baby boy Otto last August.
“He’s six months old and teething,” Kyle gushed in an interview with the Herald Sun on Saturday.
“He’s always smiling, he’s calm and quiet and he sleeps really well. So far so good,” he continued.

Kyle then said that if his son turned out to be gay, he had no problem whatsoever.
“I want him to grow up knowing that he can be whatever he wants,” he said.
“I’m not really into sports, so I don’t care if he goes down the gay path. Honestly, I’d rather watch him dance. I want him to be happy and safe and loved.’
Elsewhere in his chat, Kyle said he wants to bring the Kyle and Jackie O Show to Melbourne if the opportunity arises.
The premier breakfast show, which he co-hosts with Jackie ‘O’ Henderson, is only available to listeners in the southern capital via KIIS FM’s podcast and digital platforms.
Lauren Phillips and Jason “Jase” Hawkins currently host the KIIS FM breakfast spot in Melbourne.

It comes after Kyle shared a graphic update on Otto’s birth.
Shortly after his son was born, he told “intern” Pete Deppeler live in the hospital parking lot: “Otto was born, Otto is fabulous. I cut the umbilical cord, didn’t realize it was like tough squid and blood was spurting out.’
Kyle and Tegan announced they were expecting their first child in February.
The couple got engaged over the Christmas holidays in Port Douglas, Queensland.
In June it was reported that Kyle had bought a $13.8million mansion on Sydney’s elite Bellevue Hill to make room for her growing family.
The four-story sprawling property features five bedrooms, six bathrooms, indoor living and a wine cellar.
Before Kyle dated Tegan, he dated ex-girlfriend Imogen Anthony for eight years until they broke up in 2019.
