Miguel Blurs Child’s Face In Reveal Video
Miguel revealed his fatherhood news a little over a month before his fifth album drops in October. He did not indicate why he and Margaret waited a year to introduce their little one to fans. It’s also unclear why he didn’t mention the pregnancy, despite the few posts Zhang shared of her baby bump.
And that’s not all. Yes, the singer opted to share his child with the world, but not fully. The sweet video shows Miguel holding the 1-year-old, who was wearing a loose romper. They appeared to be standing in front of a crowd as the baby tried to hold up their finger. But that’s all we see as the child’s face is blurred.
“Our baby turned 1 today !!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANGELITO !!! We love you so much! So proud and honored that you chose us to be your parents. Papá wrote you a song – hope it always reminds you of how loved you are 🖤🖤🖤,” Miguel wrote in his caption.
The cover art for Miguel’s new track, Angel’s Song, seems to be a photo of his and Margaret’s hands near Angel’s thigh.
Margaret Zhang Shares More Photos Pregnancy & Baby, Miguel Reacts (UPDATE)
It’s unclear whether Miguel and Margaret Zhang are in a romantic relationship or co-parent Angelito exclusively. Though Miguel tagged the 32-year-old in his Instagram post and used “we” in his caption, she did not appear in the video. She also hasn’t slid into the comment section. He credited her as the director of the short birthday clip.
While Miguel was the first to (kinda) reveal their Angel, Margaret has dropped more than motherhood hints in the last year. Her Instagram feed features several posts of Zhang rocking her baby bump in public and, what seems to be, in private. Hours after Miguel’s reveal, she followed suit with a multi-slide Instagram post featuring their child. Like the singer, she blurred their one-year-old’s face and didn’t include footage proving whether they’re friendly co-parents or a couple. However, she included multiple throwbacks of her baby bump and the child in the last year, including with his daddy. She included at least two images of the mini-family–one pregnant with Angelito and the other with her and Miguel kissing the baby on each cheek. He later slid into the comment section with a compliment, “Best Mommy.”
More About Angel’s Mother (UPDATE)
So, who is Margaret Zhang? Fans were digging for the answer after Miguel debuted her as his child’s mother. While that’s now one of her roles, she also has a resume full of others, especially in the fashion world. She went from blogging in 2009 to running Vogue China from 2021 to 2024. In between, she’s worked for global luxury brands like Dior and Gucci and provided creative direction for magazines like Harper’s Bazaar and Elle, per Business of Fashion. She’s also a filmmaker and photographer.
What Happened With Nazanin Mandi?
For those still playing catch-up, Miguel and Nazanin Mandi ended their on-and-off-again love story three years ago. They dated for about 17 years, married in November 2018, and briefly split from September 2021 until February 2022. They officially ended their romance again months later. Documents released in October 2022 revealed that Naz filed for the dissolution of their marriage in California and cited irreconcilable differences. They did not have any children during their time together.
While Miguel has moved forward in some capacity, it’s unclear whether Nazanin is dating, plans to become a mother, or maintains a cordial friendship with her ex-husband.
