The couple, who tied the knot in 2022, first announced their pregnancy in September 2024, on Tamaryn’s 30th birthday.
Throughout her pregnancy, the former beauty queen has shared her reflections on becoming a mother, as well as her milestone mommy-to-be moments – including a coastal maternity shoot – with followers online.

Shot on the beach with her husband at her side, Green-Nxumalo dazzled in white with a baby bump in tow. Accompanying the post, was a note for baby-to-be: “Love made you and we can’t wait to meet you.”
Now, she steps into the new chapter of motherhood with the same grace and warmth that won South Africa’s heart, when she was crowned Miss SA in 2018.
Fans and fellow celebrities flooded the comments with love and congratulations.
Green-Nxumalo’s Miss South Africa successors, 2023’s crowned queen, Natasha Joubert, and 2024’s Mia le Roux both left messages of congratulations for the first-time parents:
“Tamaryn don’t do this to me on Valentine’s😭❤️,” wrote Joubert, “Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” wrote le Roux.
Following the Instagram post revealing the birth of her daughter, Green-Nxumalo took to the platform with another Valentine’s Day message. This time, the mom of one sports a bouquet of red roses.
“Insaaaane SnapBack 😍”, wrote one of the former Miss SA’s followers, pointing out her postpartum glow.
