The moment Kiko Rivera chose to publicly announce his new romance was no coincidence. Diez Minutos magazine exclusively aired images showing Isabel Pantoja’s son with Guillermo, the current partner of his ex-wife Irene Rosales. According to the said media, this news would have motivated Rivera to show it to his new partner for the first time and reveal what role she played in his personal recovery process after the divorce.
Kiko Rivera, renowned DJ and son of the famous Spanish singer Isabel Pantoja, confirmed the existence of a new relationship through his Instagram account, as reported by Diez Minutos. He said he experienced an unexpected turn in his emotional life just when he no longer expected to fall in love again and refrained from any sentimental quest. In words shared on the aforementioned social network and picked up by Diez Minutos, he described: “I didn’t expect to find anything, I just continued on my path without looking for answers, but then one came and I realized that fate sometimes surprises: the best person in the world crossed my path.” With this statement, Rivera explained the significant change that the beginning of this new relationship meant for him and the emotional impact it had after a year full of personal challenges.
The confirmation of his new romance ended weeks of speculation in the media. According to Diez Minutos, the secrecy that Kiko Rivera had maintained about his personal life began to raise questions since the end of the year, when various television programs and employees expressed the possibility that the DJ was excited about someone new. The rumors intensified due to his more optimistic attitude and public reflections on his emotional well-being.
Among the aspects highlighted by both Diez Minutos and television program staff, it is emphasized that Kiko Rivera’s new partner does not belong to the world of showbiz, nor does he belong to the usual figures in the world of hearts in Spain. This circumstance, according to the media, would have offered him a more stable environment away from the usual media presence, which helped to restore calm and “normalcy away from the noise” during this time.
Rivera, who had stated in numerous interviews and through his social networks that his personal stability and the upbringing of his daughters came first after his divorce from Irene Rosales, had repeatedly rejected the idea of starting a new relationship. The DJ expressed in statements collected by Diez Minutos: “He didn’t want any trouble” and preferred to focus on himself. This position changed in recent weeks, as the musician himself admitted that he was entering “the best moment” of his life and felt greater “clarity and strength” than ever before.
As Diez Minutos explained, the decision to make their romantic relationship public also coincided with the end of a year that Kiko Rivera described as “particularly turbulent on a personal level.” The DJ chose the end of 2025 to share the news with his followers. This ended a difficult phase and opened a new phase characterized by hope and new expectations.
The publication of the image on Instagram marked the end of the discretion that Kiko Rivera had adopted. The artist himself explained that the appearance of the photographs with Guillermo, Irene Rosales’ current partner, was an incentive to make visible that he had also managed to rebuild his life. In doing so, he showed that he had regained his enthusiasm and his desire to publicly share a moment that he considered crucial for his emotional reconstruction.
According to Diez Minutos, Kiko Rivera’s sentimental development ran parallel to the process of getting over his breakup with Irene Rosales – although both preferred to keep most of the details secret. According to the publications, the DJ’s new partner stayed out of the media spotlight, which allowed for a higher level of intimacy and calm at the beginning of the relationship.
The media relevance of this announcement is related to Kiko Rivera’s notoriety and the continuous attention that every aspect of his private life usually attracts in the Spanish media. The period of “hermeticism” that Rivera himself had admitted in recent weeks ended with a message in which he agreed to “give himself a new chance in love,” completing a cycle and publicly signaling the beginning of another founding on new foundations.
According to Diez Minutos, Kiko Rivera’s announcement attracted a lot of attention from television programs and social media users in the hours before the end of the year. Public reactions ranged from statements of support to surprise messages, a sign of the interest that the DJ’s media figure and the changes in his personal life continue to generate.
