BREAKING. South Africa's first Idols winner, Heinz Winckler adds yet another titel: dad.


South Africa's first Idols winner, Heinz Winckler just added another title to his name . . . that of dad.

Heinz Winckler who shot to fame and eventually won the first season of Idols on M-Net in 2002, became a first-time dad when his wife Alette-Johanni Winckler gave birth to their son Lian Theo Winckler in Johannesburg.

Heinz Winckler, by far the most successful of the five Idols winners that the reality show has produced so far, has already released three studio albums and toured the world. He said he's ''very proud of my wife and boy. I helped with my first diaper today and saw my boy feed so well. Thanks for all the well wishes and support.''
