Marc Anthony’s vida will never be the same.
After all, the “Vivir Mi Vida” singer is officially a dad of eight, sharing he welcomed a baby girl named Myla—his second with wife Nadia Ferreira—on social media July 21.
“What a great blessing to be able to share with you the arrival of our precious MYLA,” the couple captioned their joint Instagram post featuring a photo of their son holding his sibling, as well as one snap of all three holding the newborn’s hand, “you can't imagine the happiness we have at home, we are over the moon.”
Anthony and Ferreira—who also share 3-year-old son Marco together—announced in January they were expanding their family while marking a relationship milestone.
“Happy 3rd anniversary,” the couple captioned a joint Jan. 28 Instagram post featuring a snap of Anthony, Ferreira and their son cradling the model’s growing baby bump. “What a huge gift life has given us. God is great.”
Anthony, 57, and Ferreira, 26, added, “Marquito is going to be a big brother.”
Months later, the pair—who tied the knot in 2023—announced they were expecting a baby girl as they held up a pair of pink shoes in a March 27 Instagram post.
"A surprise full of love...," they captioned the post. "God through it all."

And as Anthony embarks on his new chapter, fatherhood will be a walk in the park. After all, he also shares kids Chase Muñiz, 35, and Arianna Muñiz, 32, with ex-girlfriend Debbie Rosado; Cristian Muñiz, 25, and Ryan Muñiz, 22, with his first wife Dayanara Torres; and 18-year-old twins Emme Muñiz and Max Muñiz with Jennifer Lopez, to whom Anthony was married for a decade before their 2014 divorce.
As he told E! News back in February of preparing for his and Ferreira’s little one, “I’m enjoying it. I’m enjoying every second of it.”
He added, “I’m extremely fortunate.”
As for whether the “I Need to Know” singer sees music as a career path for any of his eight kids?
“It’s gonna come down to what they wanna do,” he explained. “But are they capable? Yes.”
But no matter what they choose to pursue, he’s just happy to have the permanent role of dad.
“I have a wonderful family, a wonderful wife,” he told E! News in March 2025. “I'm just enjoying this stage of my life.”
