Since Ryan Muñiz, the son of Dayanara Torres and Marc Anthony, was born, he has shown the strength of his father’s genes and has become the one who looks most like him among his six biological children. The Puerto Rican star proved it again a few hours ago when he used his Instagram account to share a special photo with the 22-year-old, revealing just how similar they look.

It had been a while since the singer shared a photo like this, but he posted a new pose with Ryan for his more than 14 million followers. Ryan made his modeling debut in 2023 and has also expressed interest in following in his father’s footsteps in music.

While expecting his second child with his wife, Nadia Ferreira, Marc Anthony showed how he still makes time to spend quality moments with his older children. Highlighting the strong bond he shares with Ryan (last year, he gifted him a luxury sports car for his birthday), the singer posed wearing a playful accessory.

To match Ryan’s urban style, Marc wore a hat with a plush toy attached to it. The accessory helped highlight the message he wrote in the caption: “Quality father and son time,” wrote the “Vivir Mi Vida” singer.

The post quickly filled with comments pointing out how much they resemble each other, with many writing things like “They are identical” and “Seeing Ryan is like seeing Marc when he was younger.”

Although Ryan looks a lot like Marc, he once admitted that when he was a child, he used to hide the fact that his father was a famous singer. “People would ask me what my family did, and I used to say my dad worked at Best Buy, because I didn’t want them to know the truth,” the young model revealed last year in an interview with Magacín, a magazine from the Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Día.

He said he originally did it to see people’s true intentions. “It was a way to know which people in my life were genuine and which ones just wanted to take advantage,” he explained.

As they got older, the boys traded their baby faces for the distinct facial features they got from their father. Cristian and Ryan strongly resemble Marc during his teenage and young adult years.

Even now, he still keeps a certain level of privacy for a very specific reason.

“A little bit, yes (because of the fear of comparisons). I don’t want to be known only as ‘someone’s son.’ I want to have my own name,” said the 22-year-old.
