Kendji Girac, the popular French singer, is set to welcome a new addition to his family as his partner, Soraya Miranda, is reportedly pregnant with their second child. The announcement comes just days before the one-year anniversary of a tragic incident that nearly cost him his life.
According to the latest edition of Voici magazine, which hit the stands on April 18, 2025, Soraya is already five months along, with her baby bump clearly visible in recent photographs. The couple, who have a four-year-old daughter named Eva Alba, are excited about expanding their family. Kendji, who turned 28 earlier this year, has expressed his desire to embrace fatherhood once again, stating, “Ah yes, it’s my will, but after I know it must be very tiring every day, and then I have to change cars to buy a van! (Laughs.) But after, it’s so beautiful, right?”
The pregnancy news comes almost a year after a harrowing incident on April 22, 2024, when Kendji accidentally shot himself in the chest during a dispute with Soraya while under the influence of alcohol. The incident occurred at a caravan site in Biscarrosse, where the couple was staying with their daughter. Initially, Kendji had claimed it was an accident, but investigations revealed that he had deliberately shot himself to scare Soraya after an argument. This led to a period of introspection and recovery for the singer, who was placed under a six-month care obligation and required to contribute to a victim support association.
In the wake of this tragedy, Kendji has made a remarkable comeback. He released his sixth album, Vivre, in October 2024, featuring the emotional track “Si seulement,” which he co-wrote with fellow artist Vianney. The song serves as a heartfelt message to his fans, expressing his journey of healing and growth. “It gives me an emotion that puts me back in a certain state of mind. I needed to sing this story and carry the message that we must not forget what we have lived, the good and the bad, to move forward,” he explained.
As he prepares for this new chapter in his life, Kendji has been vocal about the changes he has undergone since the accident. He feels a renewed sense of peace and energy, stating, “I’m very happy, and I’ve regained my inspiration. I’ve gotten used to taking care of myself and eating healthier. Something has changed in me. Since what happened, I feel like I’ve woken up.” His commitment to family life is evident as he actively participates in caring for Eva, often picking her up from school.
In addition to his family life, Kendji is also making strides in his career. He is set to appear on the television program Rendez-vous en terre inconnue, which will be broadcast on April 29, 2025. The episode, filmed in Kenya with the Turkana people, showcases his desire to step out of his comfort zone. “I feel like I’ve changed. I’m more mature, and I feel ready,” he said regarding his potential return as a coach on the adult version of The Voice, where he previously coached children.
Reflecting on his relationship with Soraya, Kendji emphasizes the importance of family. The couple, who met in Switzerland in 2014, have built a life together in the Paris region since moving in together in 2020. Their bond has only strengthened through the challenges they have faced. “Family is sacred for me, a true model of life. We are on vacation all together, and that’s how I live,” he shared.
As they anticipate the arrival of their second child, Kendji and Soraya are looking forward to the joys and challenges of parenthood. The couple believes that having a sibling for Eva will enrich their family life. “They think that giving a little brother or sister to their daughter will do them a lot of good,” a source close to the couple revealed.
With his career on the rise and a growing family, Kendji Girac is embracing life with a renewed perspective. The journey from a traumatic incident to a hopeful future illustrates his resilience and commitment to his loved ones. As he prepares to welcome a new baby into the world, Kendji continues to inspire fans with his music and personal story.
As the couple awaits the arrival of their new child, the future looks bright for Kendji and Soraya, who are ready to write the next chapter of their lives together.
