Velito the Jester finds himself in the spotlight once again after a video surfaced on Instagram of him enjoying time in Cuba with his new girlfriend, igniting another wave of comments and critiques across social media platforms.
The footage was shared by the Cuban entertainment account @reggaeton_cuba_viral with the caption: "Velito won't let go of his blonde, his new partner."
In the video, the singer appears relaxed and cheerful alongside the young woman at various locations around Havana, displaying a level of closeness that caught the attention of his followers.
Who is Paula Martínez?
Velito's new companion is Paula Martínez, a blonde flight attendant. The couple was first spotted together in Spain in March 2026, during the artist's European tour. Shortly after, the reggaeton star made the relationship Instagram official with romantic selfies and love songs playing in the background. Just a day later, he shared a video filled with kisses, caresses, flowers, and a bold "I love you."
On May 13, during a concert in Havana, Velito publicly affirmed the relationship by introducing Paula to the cameras as "my woman," an announcement that stirred strong reactions among his fan base.
The Specter of Thalía
Despite the buzz around his new romance, much of the discussion remains centered on Thalía, Velito's ex-girlfriend and the mother of his two children.
The breakup story is still fresh in the minds of many. Thalía publicly confirmed their split on February 20, just 11 days after giving birth to their second child, Thiago. She stated she hadn't spoken earlier because she was "newly postpartum."
The timeline didn't escape notice on social media: just three days after the baby was born, Velito left Cuba for Europe to fulfill tour obligations, and it was during this trip that early images with Paula began circulating.
Public Reactions and Social Media Frenzy
Amid the controversy, the singer responded with a phrase that went viral: "The world can be against me." A few weeks later, during a concert on March 31, he addressed Thalía from the stage: "You'll live like a queen until the day I die."
Thalía hasn't remained silent either. On May 15, she released a video perceived by many as a direct jab at the singer, captioned: "Pregnancy only lasts 9 months... just saying." Earlier in April, she had made another statement that sparked discussion: "I am a single woman, my kids aren't looking for a dad."
The reactions to Velito's latest video once again highlighted the divided opinions among followers.
"Such disrespect to Thalía," one user commented. Others chimed in with remarks like: "Be the process, not the one in the process," or simply: "Poor Thalía."
Some even speculated that history might repeat itself: "They're all like that, later they'll be crying," or "I can't wait to see Thalía's next move."
Meanwhile, there were those who defended Velito's right to move on with his love life, although many agreed that the speed of his new relationship remains contentious for the public.
Ultimately, every romantic move by Velito the Jester continues to spark immediate conversation on Instagram and TikTok, where the love lives of Cuban celebrities quickly become public debate.
