Cristina Pedroche and Dabiz Muñoz are celebrating the announcement of their second pregnancy, bringing joy as they prepare to welcome another child to their family. The couple made the joyous announcement on December 28th, recognized as the ‘Día de los Santos Innocentes’ (Day of the Holy Innocents), which is similar to April Fool's Day. Due to the date, many initially doubted the authenticity of their announcement, speculating it might be just another playful prank. Nevertheless, various celebrity magazines have since confirmed the news, indicating Pedroche is already three months pregnant.
The couple’s first child, Laia, was born on July 14, 2023, and this new addition is expected to arrive just 18 months later, creating excitement and anticipation within their family. Prior to the formal announcement, Pedroche had hinted at her pregnancy during an interview with ¡Hola!, stating the New Year's Eve presentation (Las Campanadas) she would lead this year would be “very different” because there would be “a lot of life.” This cryptic remark sparked speculations among fans who started connecting the dots.
The initial hint about their second child's impending arrival came from Pedroche and Muñoz’s shared video posted on social media, where they were seen reacting to what appeared to be a positive pregnancy test. Pedroche’s expression was filled with suspense as she asked, “Is there a line?” after observing the predictor. Muñoz confirmed cheerfully, “Yes, yes, there’s a line,” to which Pedroche could hardly contain her excitement, exclaiming, “There’s a line!” The couple concluded the clip with joyous hugs, presumably celebrating the beautiful news.
Despite the video being posted on December 28th, leading many followers to suspect it was jest, several notable personalities rallied to congratulate them, indicating their belief in the couple's wonderful news. Friends and fans took to social media platforms, flooding Pedroche and Muñoz with congratulations and best wishes. Notable comments included excitement about seeing the couple's second child's face and recognizing their dynamic as wonderful parents.
Reported by different outlets, including vanitatis and ¡Hola!, there’s no denying the excitement surrounding this announcement. Not only is the couple eagerly preparing for their growing family, but this news seems to have affected the design of Pedroche's New Year's Eve dress. Josie, Pedroche's close friend and designer, explained the initial design had to be modified for her comfort as they worked closely to incorporate the expectations around the pregnancy. “We began designing the dress with a very low cut, but we had to change the plan about a month ago after we realized she wasn't feeling comfortable,” said Josie.
Pedroche and Muñoz have made headlines since the birth of their first child. They have approached motherhood with discretion, wanting to keep their child out of the intense scrutiny of public life. Pedroche openly discussed the challenges she faced during her initial experience with motherhood, acknowledging the emotional rollercoaster it entails. She shared her thoughts candidly in interviews and her book, “Gracias al miedo,” explaining how the transformation has brought new perspectives and maturity. “I'm advancing steadily, but the woman I was before giving birth is no more,” Pedroche stated during discussions about her motherhood transition.
Reflecting on the past year, Pedroche expressed satisfaction with her growth, describing herself as more patient and mature. She commented on how motherhood challenged her and the lessons learned from embracing her new identity. “What matters is the well-being and happiness of my daughter, and I keep reminding myself I’m doing fine if she is alright,” shared the television presenter, underlining her approach to parenting.
The news continues to be well-received as social media lights up with cheers to the family of three soon to be four. Friends and fans eagerly anticipate how the couple will celebrate the New Year's Eve tradition with this delightful twist of welcoming another family member.
On the eve of her big announcement during Las Campanadas, it remains to be seen whether Pedroche will confirm this joyous news on live television. Given the couple's love for delightful surprises, all eyes are on them as they prepare to welcome their second child, creating beautiful memories as they grow their family.
