TREVOR NOAH SHARES MESSAGE TO PATRICIA

In several Instagram posts, Trevor Noah shared his joy at winning his first-ever Emmy award in the category of ‘Outstanding Talk Series’ as host of The Daily Show.

“We did it, baby!”

Trevor – who quit the show in late 2022 – was also thrilled that his ward was presented to him on Martin Luther King Day on 15 January.

But while he made headlines for his historic win, the Soweto-born star had to convince his mom that he had truly won the award.
