In 2018, Ricky Martin revealed to E! News that he had tied the knot with Jwan Yosef in a private ceremony, "We exchanged vows, and we've swear [sic] everything, and we've signed all the papers that we needed to sign, prenups and everything." He added, "It feels amazing! I can't introduce him as my fiancé. I can't. He's my husband. He's my man." The singer added that they were planning to have a three-day extravaganza to celebrate their marriage properly.
The couple has welcomed four children via surrogacy; a pair of twin boys, a girl, and another boy. In a 2013 interview on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," Martin shared that he and Yosef are raising their children to be multilingual, noting, "We speak Spanish in the house and English, but they go to a French school." His husband stressed the importance of raising their kids to appreciate their diverse backgrounds to MyKali, confirming he was teaching them Arabic.
Yosef gushed proudly, "I taught my kid how to count to ten in Arabic and she's only two, which is wonderful." The couple is working hard to broaden their children's view of a family too. When Vanity Fair asked Martin what he would say to his kids when they asked the whereabouts of their mother, he sweetly answered: "I'm your father and your mother. All families are different. There are families without fathers and some without mothers. There's nothing to feel bad about."
