Marc Anthony is currently married to Nadia Ferreira with whom he shares his 7th child. Let’s meet his children, and look at his dating history so far.
One of the most sought-after pop singers out there, Marc Anthony broke into the world of Latin music with a 1993 record, “Otra Nota,” and he hasn’t looked back since.
The creator of hit salsa tracks like “De Vuelta Pa’ La Vuelta” and “Vivir Mi Vida” has achieved phenomenal success in his decades-long career. He shares twins with his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez — but what about his other relationships? How many kids does Marc Anthony have?
Marc Anthony’s wife is Nadia Ferreira and they just welcomed their first child together who is the singer’s baby number 7.
Congratulations are in order for Marc and his wife, Nadia Ferreira, as they welcomed their first child together on June 18, 2023 (ironically, it was also Father’s Day).
Anthony and Ferreira tied the knot in late January 2023, and less than a month later, the pair took to Instagram to reveal Nadia’s pregnancy with a preview of her baby bump.
In the caption, she described their unborn baby as the “best Valentine’s Day gift ever!”
After sharing the big news, Nadia’s comment section was flooded with best wishes from fans and fellow celebrities alike.
Marc and Nadia took their relationship public in 2022. Within months, the two were engaged. They married in Miami, Fla., in an intimate wedding at the Pérez Art Museum. While this is the first child that the couple has together, Marc has six other kids from previous relationships. Here’s what we know about them!
Marc Anthony has six kids from his previous relationships.
Marc started dating a Puerto Rican-American police officer named Debbie Rosado in 1993. They welcomed their first and only daughter, Ariana Anthony (aka Arianna Muñiz), in 1994. They also adopted a son, Chase.
The couple’s relationship fell apart in the mid-1990s. Marc went on to date Dayanara Torres, an actor, model, and singer who was crowned Miss Universe in 1993. They got married on May 9, 2000, in Las Vegas. They welcomed their first son, Cristian Marcus, on Feb. 5, 2001.

Cristian was named after Mexican pop icon Cristian Castro, likely out of respect for the tradition initiated by Marc’s parents, who named him after the Mexican singer Marco Antonio Muñiz.
Marc and Dayanara announced their split in July 2002, but they got back together a few months later. Their vow renewal ceremony was held in San Juan, Puerto Rico on Dec. 7, 2002. They welcomed a son, Ryan Adrian, on Aug. 16, 2003.
Marc and Dayanara broke up again in the fall of 2003, and this time, the decision was final. Dayanara filed for divorce in January 2004. The divorce was reportedly finalized on June 1, 2004.
Marc married Jennifer Lopez on June 5, 2004, at her home in Beverly Hills, Calif. They welcomed twins, Emme Maribel and Maximilian David, on Feb. 22, 2008.

One of the best-known power couples, Marc and J.Lo embarked on numerous collaborations throughout their relationship. They released songs like “Por Arriesgarnos” and “Olvídame y Pega la Vuelta,” a cover of Pimpinela’s hit song. Meanwhile, J.Lo also invited Ariana, Marc’s oldest child, to appear in the video of “Get Right,” per MTV.
By April 2012, Marc and J.Lo had decided to part ways, and in June 2014, their divorce was finalized.
Who else has Marc Anthony dated? A look at the singer’s relationship history.
Salsa sensation Marc Anthony does not seem to currently have a woman in his life. Many thought the 54-year-old singer was dating Basketball Wives star Evelyn Lozada, but Page Six shared that Marc’s rep told them “the reports are false and that he simply offered Lozada and her family to stay in his house while he was away.”
Internet super-sleuths put together that Evelyn flew out to Miami to stay at Marc’s $19-million mansion, although neither Marc nor Evelyn officially confirmed a relationship.
Marc was previously dating 30-year-old model Jessica Lynne Harris, also known as J Lynne. Things seemed to be quite serious between them as well, with Marc even bringing J Lynne to meet J.Lo and A-Rod at one of Emme’s track meets. The couple was later seen chatting with J.Lo next to a picnic table.
Marc has also been linked to Italian model and actress Raffaella Modugno, who confirmed the duo’s relationship in a May 2017 Instagram post. Later that summer, the brunette beauty referred to the Grammy winner as “my baby” and said she was “so proud to be with [an] amazing man” like him.
Before Raffaella, Marc made headlines for dating then-23-year-old Mariana Downing, a model 27 years his junior. The pair attended the 2017 Maestro Cares Foundation’s Changing Lives and Building Dreams Gala together just three months after Marc’s divorce from his third wife, Shannon de Lima.
According to WhosDatedWho, Marc Anthony has been in relationships with Madu Nicola (2021), Chloe Green (2013 – 2014), Mira Sorvino (1998), and Claudette Lalí (1996 – 1998).
J.Lo and Marc are strong as ever and she still considers him one of her biggest supporters.
In 2018, the Hustlers star revealed that her former husband has always encouraged her professionally. “While I was married to Marc, he really helped me with my confidence, and he saw where I suffered,” the 54-year-old shared on Sunday TODAY.
He would often say to her, “You’re a great singer. Don’t ever let anybody tell you you’re not a great singer.”
In a separate interview, Marc stated that he’s thrilled to be forever associated with J.Lo. “I’m proud to be in the same sentence as someone who’s accomplished what she’s accomplished and gave me a big part of her life,” he gushed. “It’s not a bad thing, right?”

On March 12, 2021, J.Lo shared to her Instagram story a snap of her and Marc comforting their daughter, Emme. J.Lo was Facetiming while Marc Anthony was able to comfort Emme in person. J.Lo wrote, “When they are sad but momma and daddy are there.”
