Popular South African media personality and Podcast and Chill co-host Sol Phenduka has welcomed a second child a baby girl into his life, revealing the news during the latest episode of the hit podcast on Monday, 16 June 2025.
The announcement, which came as a complete surprise to fans and even co-hosts, unfolded during a lighthearted segment of the show involving a game of confessions. Fellow co-host Ghost Lady speculated that someone on the team was hiding a baby-related secret. Sol initially denied it, but after some playful interrogation and reminders of subtle hints he had dropped in previous episodes, he admitted that his daughter was born on Wednesday, 11 June 2025, at around 7:30 AM.
> “Thank you,” Sol said with a proud smile, responding warmly to the flood of congratulatory messages from fans after the episode aired.
A Shift from Earlier Sentiments
What makes this announcement even more unexpected is that Sol had previously hinted he might only have one child. While he never made a definitive statement about limiting the size of his family, some fans recall earlier episodes where he suggested a solo parenting journey could be his path. That has clearly changed with the arrival of his second child showing that personal plans, especially around family, often evolve over time.
This revelation has resonated deeply with longtime listeners who’ve followed Sol's journey and growth over the years.
A Masterclass in Privacy
Fans were especially impressed with how well Sol kept the news private, especially given his high-profile role in South African media. The surprise sparked lively discussion online, with many praising his maturity and ability to shield his personal life from the public eye p0until he was ready.
Known for his honesty and unconventional takes, Sol has previously admitted that he “fakes being poor” for personal reasons, adding yet another layer to his complex and refreshingly self-aware persona.
Balancing Life in the Spotlight
Sol first rose to fame as a radio host and music producer, with experience on YFM, 5FM, Kaya FM, and even a stint on Big Brother Mzansi. But it's his role on Podcast and Chill alongside MacG that’s made him a household name thanks to the show’s unfiltered commentary, celebrity interviews, and cultural relevance.
Now, as he embraces fatherhood again, he joins a growing number of media figures navigating parenthood in the public eye gracefully blending candidness and privacy.
What’s Next?
While Sol hasn't revealed much more about his growing family, fans can likely expect some fatherhood-inspired reflections in upcoming episodes. With his trademark honesty and humor, Sol continues to evolve both on and off the mic.
