Quick to comment their congratulations to the grandfather was fellow breakfast show host, Kylie Gillies who penned: “How beautiful ❤️ congratulations fam. Xz.”
Natalie Barr similarly voiced her support, writing: “So gorgeous. Huge congrats to Carolina and AJ and the whole fam. 💕.”
Kochie also documented the touching moment when his two youngest granddaughters met for the first time, while at the same time hinting towards an upcoming family reunion.
