Thalía's New Flame Harold Iglesias Sparks Social Media Frenzy with "Cuidámela" Video

Wednesday, April 15, 2026 by Joseph Morales

Harold Iglesias, the young Cuban rumored to be Thalía's new love interest, set social media ablaze by posting an Instagram story featuring a video of himself riding a scooter to the tune of "Cuidámela" by Velito El Bufón.

The video, captured from a first-person perspective on a scooter's handlebars, drew attention primarily for its musical selection. "Cuidámela" was released by Velito alongside Dany Ome and Kevincito El 13, with lyrics interpreted by fans as an apology to Thalía.

The song's lyrics, such as "Buddy, take care of her... and give her more than I did. She likes to be loved and embraced all night long," turned Harold's video into what many described as the perfect response: he's already taking care of her, with Velito's own music playing in the background.

"It's his story with @velito_el_bufon's song, what an ending the kid gives," commented one user.

Harold didn't stop there. In a second video shared on his profile, he appeared dressed entirely in white, wearing sunglasses and sporting curly hair, posing on a street with a Caribbean vibe. The caption read: "Don't stalk me; I won't post anyone until I get married, the end."

This statement, interpreted as a veiled announcement about his relationship with Thalía, sparked a flood of reactions.

"This is better than soap operas," one user wrote. Other comments that garnered hundreds of reactions included: "Tank, take care of her; she doesn't like to suffer," "Thalía is a single mom, and the fact that he won't post anyone until marriage is genius," and "Instagram has me sleepless, it's one twist after another."

The context adds even more drama to the story: this week, Velito released an intimate video with his new girlfriend, Paula Martínez, a flight attendant seen with him in Spain in March, captioned "I love you." This sparked a fresh wave of criticism for his swift move.

Meanwhile, 21-year-old Thalía is raising her two children, including Thiago, born on February 9, 2026, just three days before Velito left Cuba.

The breakup became public on February 20, when Thalía announced it on Instagram, stating: "I'm newly postpartum, and for my well-being," she wanted to avoid controversy.

Harold Iglesias was already identified as Thalía's new partner last Sunday when the celebrity page Un Martí To Durako spotted several clues placing him with Thalía during her birthday celebration in Varadero.

Velito, on the other hand, plans to release his next song, "Te echo de menos," on April 17, featuring lyrics about jealousy: "Seeing you with someone else kills me with jealousy," suggesting the drama is far from over.

It's worth noting that although neither Harold nor Thalía has confirmed their relationship, Velito recently stated that he and his ex have been "almost six months separated" and that they have both moved on with new partners, urging people to "stop the gossip."
