Emma Muscat, the 25-year-old Maltese singer and former contestant on the popular talent show Amici, has announced that she is expecting her first child. The exciting news was revealed during an interview with the magazine Chi, where Muscat expressed her joy and anticipation for this new chapter in her life.
Muscat discovered her pregnancy in December 2024, shortly after her birthday on November 27. "It came as an unexpected gift, the most beautiful gift I could receive," she shared. The moment she learned about her pregnancy was unforgettable, as she was at home with her partner, Kurt Galea. "That moment will stay in my heart forever. It's one of those moments when time seems to stand still, and you know that life is about to change forever, but in a beautiful way," she added.
As she prepares for motherhood, Muscat describes her feelings as a mix of emotions, including happiness and a touch of fear. "I'm living a mix of emotions, where there’s fear, happiness, and a lot of tears of joy. I admit I'm a bit scared of what's to come, but it’s a beautiful moment. I'm learning new things every day," she said.
Muscat has been in a relationship with Galea since 2019, when they met at a beach club in Malta. Unlike her previous public relationship with fellow Amici contestant Biondo, which was often under the media spotlight, Muscat has chosen to keep her relationship with Galea more private. "In the past, I had a public relationship, and I shared everything. This time, I've found a special love, and I didn't want it to be ruined by expectations or comments. Sometimes, it’s nice to keep something for yourself and protect it," she explained.
Galea, who is not involved in the music industry, lives in Malta, and their relationship has flourished away from the public eye. Muscat described him as a pure soul who supports her and makes her laugh. She reflected on how Galea came into her life during a challenging time, stating, "He was the light in a dark period. I had been heartbroken, and he arrived when I was truly struggling. He has been a gift from God, and today I couldn't be happier."
As for the baby, Muscat and Galea have decided to keep the gender a surprise until the birth. "We want it to be a surprise until the end. We have prepared a list of names for both boys and girls," she revealed. Muscat is already looking forward to passing on some of her traits to her child. "I hope my child inherits my voice and empathy. I am a very sensitive person, and I have the ability to feel others' emotions and put myself in their shoes. It's a gift that sometimes weighs heavily, but it opens your heart to the world. And I want to pass on my determination as well," she said.
In addition to her personal journey, Muscat is also channeling her experiences into her music. Her upcoming single, "Tutto Quello Che Ho," is set to be released on March 28, 2025, and she describes it as a heartfelt piece that reflects her pregnancy and transformation. "The song was born practically right after I found out I was pregnant. I wanted to express everything I felt. So, I sat at the piano and then contacted a talented friend who is also a songwriter. I told him, 'I have some wonderful news to share with you.' We went to the studio to write this piece that is very dear to me. It’s a song without filters that tells of this wonderful journey," she explained.
Emma Muscat's announcement marks the beginning of a new chapter in her life, both personally and professionally. As she prepares to embrace motherhood, she remains committed to her music career, finding inspiration in her experiences. Despite the challenges ahead, Muscat's journey into motherhood is filled with excitement and optimism, and fans eagerly await her new single that encapsulates this transformative period in her life.
With her upcoming release and the joy of impending motherhood, Emma Muscat is poised to embark on a remarkable journey that blends her personal and artistic growth.
