Maluma welcomes second child, son Orión, with Susana Gómez
Colombian singer Maluma is a father for the second time.
He announced on Sept. 15 the birth of his son, Orión Londoño Gómez. The baby was born on Sept. 14, 2026. Maluma shared the news in an Instagram post, according to Billboard.
The baby's mother is Susana Gómez. She is Maluma's long-term partner. The two have been together since 2020 and have kept much of their private life away from cameras and red carpets.
Orión is their second child together. They first became parents in 2024, when their daughter París was born. That made the singer, known around the world for Spanish-language pop hits, a first-time father two years ago.
The family name follows the Spanish naming custom, in which a child takes a surname from each parent. It links the newborn directly to both sides of his family. The full name, Orión Londoño Gómez, was shared at once in the birth announcement.
The road to this week's announcement started in spring. Maluma said on May 10 that he and Gómez were expecting again. He shared that news in an Instagram post, letting followers hear it directly from him rather than through a representative or a magazine cover.
He later confirmed in an interview with Billboard that the baby would be a boy. He also said the couple had kept the pregnancy secret for five months before going public. That means followers learned about it well after the first trimester, when many families start telling a wider circle of friends and relatives.
For fans, this means the timeline now makes sense. A quiet winter and early spring. A May reveal. A September birth. Four months passed between the public pregnancy announcement and Orión's arrival, a stretch in which the couple shared updates in their own time.
What makes this stand out is how the couple have handled family news. Short statements. Their own photos. No long press tour. The Sept. 15 post followed that pattern, with the name and birth date given together so fans did not have to wait for details.
Maluma has not linked the birth to any change in his work plans. No tour dates or releases were announced alongside the baby news. For now, the update is simple and happy: París is a big sister, and Orión Londoño Gómez, born Sept. 14, is home with his parents.
