Ricky Martin introduces new boyfriend to the world

After two years of flying solo, sexy Latino singer Ricky Martin has brought a gorgeous new man into the limelight.

The 44-year-old star was photographed on the red carpet holding hands with boyfriend Jwan Yosef for the first time on Friday.

The suave tuxedo-clad couple made their début at the amFAR Inspiration Gala in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

It’s been reported that the Syria-born Yosef Jwan is a London-based artist who grew up in Sweden.

The couple each posted a picture of themselves from Friday’s event on Instagram, with Martin simply commenting, “Yup”, and Yosef writing, “We cleaned up good”.

Martin broke up with his previous longterm partner of almost six years, Carlos Gonzalez Abella, in early 2014.

He was later linked to the likes of Aussie Olympic swimming legend Ian Thorpe, but Yosef is the first man the performer has appeared in public with since the split with Abella.

Martin is raising seven-year-old twins, Matteo and Valentino, who were born via a surrogate mother. He came out as gay in 2010.
