Paraguayan model Nadia Ferreira once again captured public attention, this time not just for her confirmed role at Premio Lo Nuestro, but also for sharing a personal story that revealed the deeply romantic side of her husband, Marc Anthony.

During a lighthearted on-air segment titled “Spilling the Tea,” Ferreira offered viewers a behind-the-scenes anecdote from the 2025 edition of the awards ceremony. What began as a joke about an event credential turned into a moment that perfectly illustrated the couple’s bond.

A Childhood Tradition With Unexpected Meaning

While reminiscing about the time she co-hosted the magenta carpet alongside Francisca, Ferreira explained that she has a lifelong habit of collecting credentials from events she attends. “I’ve been collecting badges since I was a child,” she shared, noting that the tradition has followed her through every major step of her career.

When she picked up her credential for the event, one detail immediately stood out. The badge displayed “Marc Anthony” in large, bold letters. Beneath it, in much smaller type, was her own name. Laughing at the situation, Ferreira joked that she appeared to be accredited as part of her husband’s team rather than as a host in her own right. “It made me laugh because my name was there, but very small,” she recalled, framing the moment with humor rather than frustration.

Marc Anthony’s Quiet but Powerful Response

What Ferreira did not expect was what happened next. Marc Anthony heard about the credential mix-up and decided to act, without telling her in advance. He went directly to the event organizers with a very specific request: a new credential.

This time, the badge would read “Husband of Nadia Ferreira” in oversized letters, with his own name printed discreetly underneath. The gesture was playful, intentional, and deeply symbolic.

“He didn’t tell me anything,” Ferreira said. “I said it as a joke, but he did it to make me feel good.”

Anticipation Builds for the Next Edition

With the next edition of Premio Lo Nuestro scheduled for Thursday, February 19, on Univision, anticipation is growing. While music, performances, and awards will take center stage, audiences are also eager for authentic moments that cut through the spectacle.
