Since releasing his debut album in 2012, Colombian singer Maluma has continued to set the Latin music world on fire. The 29-year-old shot to fame after the release of his 2015 album, “Pretty Boy, Dirty Boy.” Following this success, Maluma collaborated with some of the hottest names in music, from Madonna and The Weeknd to Bad Bunny and J Balvin, and his projects don’t stop there. Maluma made his live-action movie debut in the 2022 rom-com “Marry Me” opposite actor and pop icon Jennifer Lopez. Lopez and Maluma play lovers who break up after a shocking revelation. The fictional romance naturally had fans curious about who heartthrob Maluma has dated in the past, as well as who has his eye right now.
Maluma’s been linked to several people, including Anitta, Winnie Harlow, and even Kim Kardashian, though in 2021 he denied dating the reality star. When L’Officiel Hommes asked where the rumor came from, the Maluma Land host said, “I don’t even know! Right? We were together at the Dior show. I met her for the first time there. I was also there with Kourtney. People just started talking about it. I don’t know why they started asking her that. Maybe because she was getting her divorce and everything, you know? But no, we are good friends. We don’t talk that often, but yeah, we are good friends and we always wish the best for each other.”
Despite his stardom and celebrity status, Maluma has generally remained private about all aspects of his personal life, including his romances. However, his recent announcement that he’s expecting his first child has piqued interest in his love life again.
Ahead, see all the women Maluma has been romantically linked to through the years, plus his current pregnant girlfriend.

Anitta
Dating speculation surrounded Maluma and Anitta for years before one of them actually addressed the nature of their relationship. Maluma was featured on Anitta’s 2016 single “Sim ou Não,” and the pair kissed on stage during a concert in Brazil in May 2017, per the Daily Mail. They released another collaboration in 2022 called “El Que Espera,” which had a steamy music video featuring some hot makeout sessions between the two. But according to Anitta, the two got intimate well before then.
Per People, when Brazilian comedian Maurício Meirelles asked Anitta how Maluma was in bed, the singer’s answer in her interview translated to “very good.” Then, during a 2022 appearance on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen,” host Cohen asked Anitta to confirm whether the two ever got together, to which she said, “Oh, yeah, well obviously.”

Natalia Barulich
Maluma and Cuban-Croatian model Natalia Barulich met while filming the music video for Maluma’s 2017 hit “Felices los 4.” In the visual, Barulich plays Maluma’s love interest, and their onscreen chemistry is undeniable.
Following the release of the video, rumors that the pair were dating immediately sparked, but they mainly kept their relationship under the radar until the following year. In January 2018, Maluma confirmed their relationship in an interview with Al Rojo Vivo (via El Tiempo). The singer spoke of their connection, saying, “At this moment we are dating. I like what we are experiencing, I like her company, she supports me and loves me.” He went on to say, “I believe that a good trip is accompanied by two things, a good destination and good company. We have a great time together, we have fun, we love each other and we support. That is something very fundamental.”
The pair continued dating for a year and were frequently seen traveling, going out together, and even posting on social media occasionally. The pair split in October 2019, according to People en Español.

Winnie Harlow
Maluma and Winnie Harlow were never a confirmed couple, but dating rumors arose after the singer’s breakup with Barulich. In October 2019, the pair were spotted dancing together at a New York City nightclub and exchanged quite a few flirty, cryptic comments on Instagram, per “Entertainment Tonight.” That same month, the singer and the model went to Latin restaurant Blend in Long Island City with friends, according to Page Six. “They were in a private area,” a source said. That appears to be the extent of it, as nothing else notable was reported.

Susana Gomez
Speculation that Maluma and Colombian architect and interior designer Susana Gomez were dating started as early as August 2020, when they were seen out in public showing PDA, including holding hands and kissing, per Hola!. Since then, Maluma and Gomez have often been seen in public together and very much appear to be a couple, despite no explicit confirmation coming from either of them.
In December 2021, Maluma posted a since-deleted blurry picture of him embracing a mystery woman by a Christmas tree on Instagram. He captioned the photo, “Gracias santa,” followed by a heart emoji. The woman wasn’t tagged in the picture, but fans speculated that it was Gomez. The romance didn’t stop there. Maluma shared a kiss with Gomez during his 2022 Billboard Latin Music Awards performance, too.
The singer and Gomez almost sparked engagement speculation back in January when he jokingly nearly proposed to his girlfriend while celebrating his 29th birthday, according to People. The pair have reached another big relationship milestone, though.
On Oct. 19, Maluma revealed in his “Procura” music video that he and Gomez are expecting their first child together. He debuted the visual during his concert in Washington DC, showing various clips of the couple and their pregnancy journey. The end of the video shows the two wearing matching necklaces that say “Paris” at a gender-reveal party, where clouds of pink smoke emerge. It appears they’re having a baby girl.
