The Argentine Singer Surprises Fans with Pregnancy Announcement at High-Profile Event, Confirming FC Barcelona Star as Father – A “Beautiful New Chapter” for the Power Couple
BARCELONA – November 20, 2025 – In a moment that lit up the Catalan capital like a fireworks display over Camp Nou, Argentine superstar Nicki Nicole has announced she’s expecting her first child with boyfriend Lamine Yamal, the 18-year-old FC Barcelona phenom who’s captivating the football world. The revelation, dropped during a glamorous fashion event at the Palau de la Música Catalana on Tuesday night, sent social media into a frenzy, with millions flooding timelines with messages of love and congratulations. Photos from the evening captured Nicole, 25, glowing in a form-fitting black gown, her hand cradling a subtle bump as Yamal stood protectively by her side, his arm around her waist and a proud smile lighting up his face. “We’re starting the most beautiful chapter of our lives,” Nicole shared in a heartfelt Instagram post that has already surpassed 5 million likes. Fans are calling it a “fairy tale come true” for the young couple, whose whirlwind romance has been one of 2025’s most talked-about stories.
The announcement was pure magic. Midway through the event—attended by stars like Rosalía and Pau Gasol—Nicole took the stage for a surprise performance of her hit “Wapo Traketero,” dedicating it to “the little one who’s already stealing the show.” As the crowd cheered, she paused, placing a hand on her belly and revealing Yamal as the father with a simple, “We’re having a baby!” The Barcelona star rushed onstage, pulling her into a tender embrace amid thunderous applause. “Lamine and I met last year, and from that first spark, we knew this was forever,” Nicole told Hola! magazine exclusively. “This baby is our greatest adventure yet.”
Their relationship, confirmed publicly in August 2025, has been a whirlwind of young love and high-profile moments. Yamal, the Ballon d’Or contender who scored the winner in Spain’s Euro 2024 triumph, first caught Nicole’s eye at a charity gala in Madrid. The pair bonded over shared passions—music for her, football for him—and their chemistry was undeniable when Nicole attended Yamal’s 18th birthday in July, wearing his Barca jersey to the Bernabéu. They’ve since been spotted yachting in Monaco and courtside at NBA games, with Yamal dedicating his October Champions League goal against Bayern to her on Instagram: “For my queen and our future king.” The pregnancy news, due in late spring 2026, comes as Yamal signs a lifetime deal with Barca, cementing his status as the club’s future.
Fans are in absolute meltdown. “Nicki and Lamine baby? The cutest crossover ever!” tweeted one with 100k likes, while another gushed, “From ‘Mamichula’ to mama—congrats!” The couple’s bond has inspired many, blending Nicole’s Latin trap beats with Yamal’s on-pitch wizardry. “He’s my biggest fan, and I’m his loudest cheerleader,” Nicole said, laughing about attending his matches in disguise to avoid paparazzi.
As Barcelona gears up for El Clásico, the city buzzes with baby fever. Yamal, who has five siblings, joked in a post-match interview: “I’m ready—diapers, midnight feeds, and all!” Nicole, whose album Parte de Mi drops in 2026, plans a maternity tour break but promises “songs inspired by this little miracle.”
From rivals to romance, Nicki Nicole and Lamine Yamal’s story is football’s fairytale. With a baby on the way, their “beautiful new chapter” has just begun—and the world can’t wait to watch it unfold.
