Former Miss South Africa Melinda Bam gave fans a rare and tender look into her family life on 8 November 2026, sharing a golden-hour Instagram reel that doubled as both an anniversary tribute and a pregnancy announcement.
The sun-drenched outdoor shoot, filmed in a grassy field lined with trees, captured candid, playful, and posed moments between Melinda, her husband Adriaan Bergh, and their two little ones, with an ultrasound photo quietly tucked into the sequence confirming that baby number three is on the way.

Alongside the beautiful family reel, Melinda wrote a deeply personal Afrikaans tribute to Adriaan, marking 13 years since he asked her to be his wife. She reflected on the life they had built together, crediting their shared faith, mutual accountability, and the character they had helped draw out in one another over the years.

She spoke warmly about Adriaan's integrity, his humility, and the way he leads their home, describing him as her safest place. Her words closed with a renewed vow, which tugged at heartstrings in Mzansi.
