PICS: Khanya Mkangisa has welcomed her first child

Congratulations are in order...


In a heartwarming revelation, actress and TV presenter Khanya Mkhangisa has officially welcomed her first baby.

The media personality had kept her pregnancy under wraps until recently when she graced the cover of Nounouche Magazine.

According to the magazine, she and her partner, Desmond Williams, whom she has known since they were kids, welcomed a baby boy.

The Blood Psalms actress told Nounouche that her decision to wait until the timing felt right made things easy for her.

She added: “I really waited, and the last thing I wanted was regret. Now I feel like I’m fulfilled. I have fulfilled my purpose. I’ve lived my life and travelled.

“I mean there’s always room for more. ‘But then you realise who’s to say you can’t still do those things? But for the most part, all my dreams I really have tried to reach them in the best way possible.”
