‘Welcome to the world son,’ Travers wrote alongside a video of him holding his newborn son’s hand.
Travers shares two daughters Velicia, 12, and Serafina, 11, with his wife Taesha and has two other children – Valentino, 24, and Luciana, 22 – from his previous marriage to Ninibeth Leal.
Travers’ eldest son Valentino also took to Instagram to gush over the arrival of his baby brother Santiago as he shared an array of sweet snaps of the newborn.
In 2018, Travers shared his desire to have more children, admitting he originally wanted 10 kids but would be happy with six children.
He told The Mirror at the time: ‘When I was a teenager I wanted 10 children, but six will do now, I would be happy with two more boys.

‘Taesha texted me today actually, and can I read this out? She said, “I really want a baby boy with you….like now”.’
In December, Travers put his extravagant 14-bedroom, 13-bathroom Gold Coast ‘Candy Shop Mansion’ on the market.
Ahead of the birth of his son Santiago, Travers decided to relocate with his wife Taesha to a more appropriate location to raise a young child.
The palatial property sits on a whopping 1.4 acres of lavish waterfront real estate and its exquisite architecture takes inspiration from European grandeur.
Some of its jaw-dropping features include a grand ballroom, a 15-seat Gold Class standard cinema, a large outdoor pool and a nine car basement garage.

The opulent property, which has hosted many wild parties over the years, sits behind large two-ton crested gates and features a gorgeous sandstone driveway and marble-clad majestic courtyard.
Its highly desirable location is close to a variety of amenities including world renowned Surfers Paradise shopping centres, restaurants and beach.
Travers previously lived on the stately property with his wife of 14 years Taesha and his ‘harem’ of girlfriends.
Travers and his wife Taesha have a polyamorous relationship and have previously spoken openly about how they continue to make their marriage work.
Last January, Taesha revealed she and Travers were looking for ‘new girlfriends’ in a post shared to social media.

‘Married to Travers Beynon… hot girls welcome. The only man for me, but we are looking for new girlfriends,’ she wrote at the time.
The couple split from their ‘main’ girlfriend, Queensland barmaid Nisha Downes, in 2022. She used to feature regularly on the couple’s social media pages.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia in 2018, Travers previously gave an insight into his marriage to his wife Taesha and their polyamorous arrangement.
‘We’re very happy. I’ve been married to my wife for eight years and our relationship – in a fun sense, in a family sense, and in a sexual sense – is like we first met,’ he shared.
While Taesha added: ‘Trav and I have a very strong marriage and a very strong relationship – we make enough time to spend one on one together. I feel like I’m always the centre of his life.’
Travers is the managing director of Freechoice Tobacco and is said to be worth $200million.
