Overview
- Mendes posted a public Instagram tribute on Tuesday that celebrated Marquezine’s 31st birthday and served as the first explicit confirmation of their romance.
- In the caption he mixed English and Portuguese, calling her “my baby,” saying she changed his life, and writing “Eu te amo muito muito muitoo,” which translates to “I love you so, so, so much.”
- The post’s photos and videos showed the couple at Casa Amarela Providência in Rio de Janeiro, including children greeting Marquezine, and Mendes expressly thanked the organization for its work.
- The pair were first linked in December 2025 and had been photographed together in the U.S. and Brazil since then, and Mendes’s public message ends months of speculation about their status.
- The public post is likely to increase attention on the couple’s appearances and on Casa Amarela Providência, and it marks a shift from private sightings to an open, social‑media confirmation of their relationship.
