Thalía, the young Cuban woman, 21 years old, who was in a relationship with the background singer Velito El Bufón, published a new post on her Instagram account @la_thalia__ in which she reveals a surprise that her boyfriend, music producer Dany Herrera, prepared for her and that she had kept to herself for a while before sharing it with her followers.
«I hadn't uploaded them, but that day I was very happy, thank you for being who you are,» the young woman wrote in the caption, accompanied by a red heart. The post, set to the music of «Love Me Like You Do» by Ellie Goulding, garnered 33,000 likes and 1,352 comments.
The post is the latest chapter in a love story that Thalía has been publicly building with Dany Herrera since early July 2026.
On July 1, the young officially confirmed her relationship with Dany Herrera through a series of romantic photos in an infinity pool with a view, a post that garnered over 12,500 likes and 649 comments within hours, and in which she hinted, "You can't imagine what he did to me."
A week later, on July 8th, she took it a step further by sharing a photo in her underwear alongside Dany in her Instagram stories: a mirror selfie in a room with white and gray bed linens, light blue curtains, and tiled flooring.
Dany Herrera, a Cuban musician and producer with several thousand followers on Instagram, went from being an unknown name to becoming the star of the summer melodrama.
The backdrop of this story begins in February 2026, when Velito El Bufón left Cuba just three days after the birth of his son Thiago for his European tour, where he was seen with Paula Martínez, a Spanish cabin crew member.
The hardest blow came on April 13, when Velito made that relationship official on the very day of Thalía's 21st birthday, triggering a wave of criticism on social media.
Thalía, however, has been quietly rebuilding her life. On June 15, she reappeared in a bikini, hinting at her new happiness: "Sometimes I feel the urge to share how happy I am, but it's better if I 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; the day I am ready, I will bring it to light."
Meanwhile, the singer continued to fuel the media back-and-forth. On July 2, Velito released a teaser for "La mujer del Género" alongside El Chulo, with the phrase "we moved to Madrid, as we like Spanish women," clearly referencing Paula Martínez.
As summarized by the account @raggamorffa with a phrase many agreed with: "It's been a long time since a couple in the entertainment industry provided as much content as Velito and Thalía."
