Some trips are measured in miles. This one was measured in hugs. For Nadia Ferreira, it was a dream come true. The former beauty queen flew home to Asunción with her husband, Marc Anthony, their son Marco, and baby Myla, so her family in Paraguay could finally meet the newest member of the clan.

"I’m so excited my family can finally meet Myla," Nadia wrote in Spanish on her Instagram Stories, sharing a tender shot of Marc cradling their daughter on the plane.

According to the Paraguayan outlet Última Hora, the menu also included vorí vorí, a beloved local soup.
Myla’s face, like her brother's, remains a family secret.

The 3-year-old soaked up the sunshine and warm weather with his Paraguayan family, spending hours in the pool laughing and playing, and, as local outlets noted, making the most of time with his cousins.
The visit caps an unforgettable few months for the couple. Myla arrived on July 21, three years after Marquito’s birth in June 2023, giving Nadia and Marc the thrill of welcoming a new baby all over again.
She’s Nadia’s second child and Marc’s eighth.
A family break, with a little music

Even on this trip, the music found them: as reported by La Nación and Última Hora, the whole family turned out for Marco Antonio Solís’s concert at the Jockey Club Paraguayo, where Marc joined him onstage.
Since tying the knot in Miami in January 2023, Marc and Nadia have become one of the entertainment world’s most beloved couples, building a family that fans can’t get enough of. Between tours, trips, and celebrations, the story they’re writing is that of two people who found, in love and family, the perfect formula for a home full of excitement and hope.
