Tino Chinyani Marks Another Year With Gratitude

Zimbabwean-born model, television presenter and musician Tino Chinyani is celebrating another year of life, and his birthday message was filled with gratitude, faith and appreciation for the people who have walked the journey with him.

Instead of simply marking the occasion with a birthday announcement, Tino took a moment to reflect on the blessings and experiences that have shaped his life. Sharing a heartfelt message with his followers, he thanked God for allowing him to see another year.

“Father for the gift of the new year, I thank you for your Grace & I give You all the Glory,” Tino wrote.

He went on to reflect on the people and memories that have made his journey meaningful, expressing gratitude for both the big milestones and the seemingly ordinary moments that eventually become treasured memories.

“All I have is gratitude in my heart for the journey so far. For the family, for the friends, for little & big moments that’ll be endless memories for a lifetime,” he shared.

Tino ended his birthday reflection on an optimistic note, making it clear that he is looking forward to what lies ahead.

“The best truly is yet to come. Psalms 911.”

Adding a romantic touch to the celebrations was his partner, actress and television personality Simphiwe Ngema, who marked the occasion with a special tribute of her own. Simphiwe shared a video featuring moments from their relationship, capturing memories they have created together over the years.

Her message was short, playful and affectionate, as she wrote: “Happy birthday Ramba Tinotenda Wumpalumpa Chinyani. i love you.”

The couple’s relationship dates back to around 2019, and over the years they have grown their family together. They are parents to two sons, Tiyani Chinyani, who was born in June 2020, and Kaboentle Tinotenda Chinyani, who was born in November 2024.

With family, love and faith at the centre of his birthday reflection, Tino appears to be entering another chapter with a grateful heart and, as he put it himself, believing that the best is still to come.
