Why doesn’t Ricky Martin usually show his children on social networks?

Who are Ricky Martin’s children?

The singer and actor has once again stood out in the media when remembering his entry into fatherhood more than a decade ago. It was on August 9, 2008 when he became a single dad with the birth of twins Matteo and Valentino, who came into the world thanks to a surrogate mother.

In a recent interview with People magazine, Martin expressed his happiness at starting to raise his children, sharing: “I’m so happy! Everything they do, from smiling to crying, feels like a blessing.” For him, becoming a father has been an unparalleled spiritual experience, describing it as the most transcendental moment of his life.

As the twins get older, they have shown a marked interest in following in their famous father’s footsteps in the world of entertainment. In June 2022, Matteo joined his father on the set of a video clip, an emotional moment that Ricky shared with his followers through his Instagram account. At 15 years old, Matteo and Valentino promise to continue captivating the public with their talent and charisma, carrying with them the artistic legacy of his father.

Ricky Martin’s only daughter, Lucía Martin Yosef, came into the world on December 24, 2018, thanks to a surrogate mother, but as a result of the love between the singer and his ex-partner, Jwan Yosef.

In an interview with People magazine in 2020, Ricky shared what the experience of having a girl was like after raising two boys: “They just gravitate towards you. They are daddy’s girl. It is real”.

Although Ricky has maintained some privacy regarding Lucía on social media, in December 2023 he decided to share some photos in honor of her fifth birthday.

“My daughter and my own light, Lucía, today you turn 5 years old! It is an honor to watch you grow into the stellar being that you are. Happy birthday! ”She wrote in an emotional message.

Just nine months after welcoming Lucía on October 29, 2019, Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef welcomed their second child, Renn, also through a surrogate.

In an interview with Out magazine in 2020, Ricky shared what it was like raising two boys this time around, highlighting the differences from the previous experience of raising his twins.

“Listen, I became a dad when I was 35; It’s not the same when you’re 48. You need the energy,” he admitted.

“And although I am strong, believe me, I am healthy, carrying two babies at once, along with the stroller and backpack, is a lot. It is a big responsibility,” she added.

Renn is the son the couple keeps furthest from the spotlight; However, in 2022, Jwan released some photographs that revealed how he had grown until then.
