Thalía, a 21-year-old from Cuba and former partner of backup singer Velito El Bufón, recently shared an exciting revelation on her Instagram account, @la_thalia__. Her current boyfriend, music producer Dany Herrera, surprised her, and she finally decided to share the moment with her followers.
"I hadn't posted this yet, but that day made me very happy. Thank you for being who you are," Thalía captioned the post, accompanied by a red heart emoji. The post, set to Ellie Goulding's "Love Me Like You Do," quickly garnered 33,000 likes and 1,352 comments.
This post is just the latest chapter in the public love story Thalía has been building with Dany Herrera since early July 2026.
The Romantic Journey Begins
On July 1st, Thalía officially confirmed her relationship with Dany Herrera by posting a series of romantic photos taken at an infinity pool, which received over 12,500 likes and 649 comments in no time. In the post, she teased, "You can't imagine what he did for me."
A week later, on July 8th, she took it a step further by sharing an Instagram story featuring a mirror selfie in underwear with Dany, taken in a room decorated with white and gray bedding, light blue curtains, and tiled floors.
A New Face in the Spotlight
Until recently, Dany Herrera, a Cuban musician and producer with a modest Instagram following, was relatively unknown to the broader public. However, he has since become the central figure in this summer's most talked-about romance.
Past Heartache and New Beginnings
The backdrop of this tale begins in February 2026 when Velito El Bufón left Cuba just three days after the birth of his son, Thiago, to embark on a European tour. During this time, he was seen with Spanish flight attendant Paula Martínez.
The situation escalated on April 13th, when Velito made his relationship with Paula official on Thalía's 21st birthday, sparking widespread criticism on social media.
Despite this, Thalía has quietly rebuilt her life. She reemerged on June 15 in a bikini, hinting at her newfound happiness: "Sometimes I feel like posting about how happy I am, but I prefer to keep it to myself."
On June 22, following the leak of an intimate video, she was more direct: "I am rebuilding my life with a wonderful person, and when I'm ready, I'll reveal it."
Velito's Continued Media Antics
Meanwhile, Velito kept the media buzz alive. On July 2nd, he released a teaser for "La mujer del Género" with El Chulo, featuring the line "we moved to Madrid, how we love Spanish women," a clear nod to Paula Martínez.
As the Instagram account @raggamorffa aptly summarized, "It's been a long time since a couple in the entertainment industry provided as much content as Velito and Thalía."
