He is not living La vida loca, but 'la vida feliz'. Ricky Martin is in a great place right now. He has a solid career and a wonderful family life with his artist husband Jwan Yosef and their three children, twins Matteo and Valentino and baby girl Lucia. And now life is set to get even better - as the singer revealed himself during his latest public appearance. Ricky and Jwan are set to become parents for the fourth time - and we can not congratulate them enough.

His efforts fighting for the rights of the LGBTQ community as well as his philanthropic work earned Ricky such a prestigious acknowledgment. The singer delivered an emotional speech and thanked his beautiful family for being his inspiration.

I love you with all my heart, you are my strength, you are my inspiration every day, you are my motivation to keep doing what I do, you are incredible, amazing kids. I love you. Lucía, my baby girl, is not here with us, she's at home with granny, but she is the light of my life.”

The singer became a parent for the first time back in 2008, with the arrival of twins Matteo and Valentino. In January 2019 Ricky surprised his fans by expanding his family with the arrival of adorable baby Lucia. We could see her little face on her dad’s social media back in August when the singer shared a picture of the toddler, “The light of my eyes,” he wrote on his post to introduce the blue-eyed baby girl.
