The couple has announced the birth of the family’s youngest, Mariana – a name that the couple announced on their social networks last July – through their social networks. The content creator has done so by publishing three stories on her Instagram, in which she claims to have successfully met two of her 2026 goals (“give birth and survive”) and to have had the “dream birth”, published this January 3 at night. He also shares two photos: in one of them he shows a little of his little daughter and in another you can see his father giving him a kiss. This last photo is the one that Castellano has shared on his own stories; ensuring that “everything has gone super well and Meri and Mariana are phenomenal.” This Sunday, Pombo: “2-1-2026. New favorite date on our calendar.” He thus confirms that the little girl was born on Friday, January 2, with some images in which she is seen with her parents and her two older brothers.
She is one of the influencers most followed in Spain — it accumulates 3.3 million followers — and each of its advertisements becomes news. Despite trying to control the narrative of her life—also through a family docuseries—María Pombo could not prevent the news of her third pregnancy from leaking through the press. It was the magazine Hello! which published the exclusive on July 14. A day later, it was the couple who confirmed the news through their social networks. “Our exclusive, for our family, our friends and for you (even though you have beaten us to it),” was the message with which they shared that they were expecting their third child.
Since then, the couple has been publishing the news of the pregnancy and how Pombo was coping with it, who even stated that it had been harder than the previous ones. “I usually sleep incredibly well and I’m suffering a lot this pregnancy with insomnia. Seeing the hours go by and seeing that I can’t fall asleep makes me cry every night,” the content creator explained in November. But they are not the only symptoms she has suffered during pregnancy: “I am coming out of this black cloud. I have felt that my feelings have been taken away from me, at least the good ones. I have been apathetic, sad…”, she explained on her Instagram profile after the news leaked. And she added: “These days I have felt frustration because during this pregnancy I have been much more afraid. I went to each ultrasound just wanting to listen to the heart and to be told that everything was fine. I have had it much worse. We went to the gynecologist at night so that everything was as discreet as possible. All the precautions I have taken… and it has not been my news.” During pregnancy, too, by ensuring that those who read are not better people.
This was not the first time that information about one of her pregnancies was leaked, although on that first occasion it was due to her mistake. during a visit of the influencer a The Resistancethe program he hosted on Movistar+ before making the jump to TVE with The revoltshowed his photo gallery. The most astute viewers realized that in one of those images, in small size, there was a pregnancy test. Later, it was she herself who quickly confirmed her second pregnancy. With the arrival of this third baby, the content creator and the businessman fulfill their desire to have a large family. It was in December 2020 when they welcomed their first-born, Martín —three days after announcing her first pregnancy, she revealed that she suffers from multiple sclerosis, a disease that her mother also suffers from—; and in June 2023, their second daughter, Vega, was born.
The couple experienced a complicated 2024 on a personal level. As they themselves showed in their docuseries Pigeon (Prime Video), decided to go to couples therapy after several crises. “I needed to try to understand the reason for many of my things that come from a long time ago. They give us tools to improve as a marriage, as a couple and as everything,” explained the businessman. She added: “We have chosen to take that path that at first may seem more difficult. You may think that if we are wrong, each one on his own path… We, on the contrary, are trying to take care of what we really want, which is to be together, for our children to be happy and to be as happy as possible.”
