Neymar and Bruna Biancardi have announced they are expecting their third child together, a girl due in mid-December 2026. The news follows the birth of their daughter Mel in July 2025. The couple shared it in a family video during a gathering in the United States connected to the 2026 FIFA World Cup period. Three of Neymar’s four older children appeared in the video, filmed at home.
Biancardi later answered followers’ questions about the pregnancy and compared her experience across the three gestations.

She has also described her pregnancy with Mavie as the most difficult of the three, recalling feelings of insecurity.
Family chronicles
The expected baby will be Biancardi’s third child with Neymar and his fifth publicly reported child. Neymar’s son Davi Lucca was born to Carolina Dantas in August 2011.

The family chronology spans three mothers.
The latest addition comes against the backdrop of a complicated relationship history. After Mavie’s birth in 2023, the couple broke up following Neymar’s public admission of infidelity. He apologized to Bruna on social media and said he preferred to resolve personal matters within the family circle.
Second chance
After the breakup, Neymar became the father of Helena, and he and Bruna later resumed their relationship. The couple welcomed Mel in July 2025 and are now preparing for another addition to the family. In a video, Neymar joked about possibly forming a music band with his daughters, while Bruna joined in and compared the future sisters to “K-pop heroines.”
The initial pregnancy announcement did not disclose the baby’s name. Later Brazilian entertainment coverage identified her as Mariah, after Neymar appeared to reveal the name in an accidental social-media post. The expected child is the couple’s third daughter.
