In a previous Instagram post, Maluma had confirmed he was expecting another child with Gomez earlier this year. This announcement came in the form of a heartfelt Mother’s Day tribute, where the musician and his daughter Paris kissed Susana’s baby bump, showcasing their excitement about expanding their family. He simply captioned the sweet image with a light blue heart emoji, signalling his joy and anticipation.
Maluma, 32, has spoken candidly about how fatherhood has transformed his life and outlook.

And I love it,” Maluma expressed, reflecting on the motivation he finds in his new role as a dad. “I wake up every day with the desire to conquer the world. I know I have to f—ing kill it.”
The impact of fatherhood has driven Maluma to adopt a healthier lifestyle — he emphasised the importance of setting a good example for his children. “For Paris, nothing is impossible,” he stated. He noted that he now aims to go to bed early and rise for early workouts, underscoring his commitment to remaining healthy in order to be there for his kids. “I want to make her proud,” he remarked, highlighting the profound influence parenthood has had on him.
Maluma first revealed Gomez’s pregnancy in his music video for “Procura,” which debuted in October 2023. This added another dimension to their relationship, showcasing their shared journey and milestones as they blended their lives together. The couple’s openness about their family life presents a refreshing side to the glamorous world of celebrity.
The singer’s dedication to his family is evident not only in his lifestyle changes but also in the heartfelt manner he expresses his love for Gomez.
