Let’s hear it for Spanish supermodel Jon Kortajarena’s amazing body of work.
He also modeled in the first Tom Ford campaign and went on to become his muse appearing in the designer’s directorial debut, A Single Man.
But now he’s taking on the biggest responsibility of his life and has welcomed his first child, according to ¡Hola! magazine. The baby news was first reported by on-air journalist Marta Riesco and confirmed by the Spanish outlet.
Rumors first began to swirl after he was spotted pushing a baby stroller through the streets of Bilbao, Spain.
The outlet then spoke to people close to Kortajarena who confirmed his newfound dad status and how he wants to approach this new chapter “with the utmost naturalness.”
Kortajarena has not made any official statement regarding the paternal news, but his friends added, “he’s very happy.”
Othe details such as the baby’s gender and if he’s raising the child as a single parent have not been revealed.
However, fatherhood is something that catwalk king has previously said he wanted to experience. In a 2018 interview, he shared his desire to have a child in the future.
“It’s an experience I don’t want to miss. I don’t know when the time will be; life will tell. But ultimately, having a child has to be a huge experience, a very interesting shift in priorities,” he told the Spanish site Divinity. “Life is long, and every moment has its place. If you organize yourself well, you can live them all intensely.”
It’s unclear if there is a special someone in Kortajarena’s life as his last public relationship was with out actor Luke Evans.
The men dated for two years before splitting in 2016.
Single or not, Kortajarena will have to manage juggling fatherhood with his very busy career.
On top of his fashion editorial duties, he’s currently the face of Swiss fragrance Grisalda Gold and is continuing to star in the Spanish series El Inmortal.
Being a parent is no easy feat, but we expect Jon Kortajarena will be a model dad, literally and figuratively.
Congrats, Papi!
