Dani Martín and Amaia Montero are two iconic names on the Spanish pop scene. Both artists, whose careers began at the dawn of the new millennium, have always drawn public attention not only for their music, but also for their private lives, which they have carefully shielded from public view. Martín’s track record includes high-profile romances with TV host Patricia Conde and actress Blanca Suárez. Currently, he is in a relationship with María Hervás, and according to rumors, he is seriously considering starting a family with her.
And now, after nearly two decades of rumors and speculation, Dani Martín himself has decided to set the record straight. In a recent candid interview, he finally confirmed what had long been whispered about in music circles: he and Amaia did, in fact, have a romantic relationship. The artist didn’t go into detail, but admitted that there was ‘something’ between them. The rumors started back in 2002, when the duo released a joint single, ‘Puede ser,’ which became a hit. Since then, fans have continued to wonder whether there was more than just friendship and work that connected the two artists.
The lead singer of El Canto del Loco spoke very warmly about his former girlfriend, stressing that he still holds her in high regard. He also mentioned that their families maintain excellent and very close relations, reflecting the depth of their bond even after their romance ended. Martín also touched on a difficult period in the singer’s life, when she posted a photo on social media in which she appeared very vulnerable. He responded to her actions with understanding, noting that everyone goes through tough times and that this was her way of showing her true state.
Amaia Montero’s reaction did not take long to follow. Some time after the much-discussed interview, she posted a black-and-white archive photo on her profile, showing herself and Dani performing together on stage. She captioned the snapshot with a short but very touching message addressed to the musician: “You know what, Dani Martín? You are really cool.” The post sparked a storm of emotions among her followers. Some saw it as a gesture of friendship, while others perceived it as a hint at a possible on-stage reunion, especially since Amaia recently rejoined La Oreja de Van Gogh, the group that brought her fame.
In the same conversation with the press, Dani Martín also shared some more personal plans. He admitted that he feels like a mature man, and that fatherhood is now his biggest dream. The artist even let slip that he and his current partner, actress María Hervás, are already imagining their future child. Many interpreted this statement as a sign of how serious his intentions are.
