Subtitle: The Puerto Rican singer recently announced his divorce, leaving fans curious about his new relationship
Ricky Martin recently caused quite a stir among his fans when a series of photos featuring him and a “mysterious” woman surfaced on his Instagram account. The images immediately raised doubts among netizens, particularly those who had followed the singer’s journey to singlehood following his divorce announcement just days ago from Syrian-Swedish painter Jwan Yosef.
In a joint statement, the former couple emphasized that while their love relationship has come to an end, their commitment to their family remains unwavering. The statement revealed that they will continue to co-parent their two children together. Additionally, Ricky Martin is also a father to twins, Mateo and Valentino, born in 2008.
“We have both decided to end our marriage with love, respect, and dignity for our four children and remember the wonderful years we spent together as a couple,” expressed Martin and Josef.
The focus on maintaining a healthy family dynamic and a relationship built on peace and friendship is their utmost priority, as they strive to provide the best upbringing for their children. The artists, who tied the knot in 2018 after two years of dating, welcomed Lucia in 2018 and Renn in 2019.
However, the recent photograph that stirred up the speculation frenzy featured Ricky Martin in a warm embrace with a blonde woman, seated together on a sofa. Social media immediately erupted with questions and assumptions about the woman’s identity. Some voiced curiosity about whether she was the mother of Martin’s children, born via surrogacy, while others speculated if she was transgender and potentially Ricky’s new partner.
Comments flooded in, stating, “Is she the mother of your children?” and “Is she a woman?” among many others, with some expressing surprise at seeing the singer in the presence of a woman. Netizens were eager to uncover the woman’s identity and understand her connection to Ricky Martin.
Contrary to the speculations, it turns out that the woman in question is Spanish model and actress Esther Cañadas, a longtime friend of the singer. Cañadas, who has enjoyed success in both the acting and fashion industries, has worked for renowned brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Chanel, Michael Kors, Calvin Klein, Alexander McQueen, Yves Saint Laurent, Valentino, Moschino, Victoria’s Secret, and Givenchy. She has also appeared in films such as “The Thomas Crown Affair” and “Trileros.”
Esther Cañadas was previously married to MotoGP rider Sete Gibernau but divorced a year later. In 2014, she welcomed her daughter, Galia Santina. On her social media, Cañadas has expressed her affection for Ricky Martin in a post saying, “If I love you more, I’ll explode Ricky Martin.”
While fans may have been taken aback by the presence of a new face alongside Ricky Martin, the clarification that the woman is a longtime friend puts an end to the speculation surrounding the singer’s love life. As Ricky Martin navigates this new chapter, fans can continue to support him and look forward to his future musical endeavors.
