Hello and good afternoon from your local bearer of bad news; I 'm here to confirm that yes, Maluma does indeed have a girlfriend, and, no, she isn't you. Turns out, she's actually interior decorator and jewelry designer Susana Gómez, whom the singer has reportedly been seeing since at least 2020 when the two were first spotted holding hands. So, yeah, that's the bad news. But the good news is after copious amounts of internet stalking research, it's clear that these two are a match made in heaven.

Ahead, more intel on Maluma's girlfriend Susana and their cute 'ship, starting with the fact that...

Susana is totally a ~creative~

As in, not only does she reportedly run and manage an interior design firm called Ese+Ese in Colombia, but she's also a jewelry designer! Back in February 2023, she launched Sileo Timeless Jewelry, a company she started with her sister Juliana Gomez, *and* which Maluma proudly supports. Ahem, witness:

Not gonna lie, I didn't expect to find a new brand to be obsessed with today, but here we are!

She and Maluma are both from Colombia

The love birds both helm from Medellín in Colombia. In the past, the singer has opened up about how much pride he takes in being from the country, even dishing to People back in April 2021 that "when people talk about Colombia, they don't talk about Pablo Escobar anymore or drugs or violence. When they come to Latin America, they feel like we have an amazing culture. They say that we're good people, that we are people who love helping. It makes me feel pretty proud."

Susana, for her part, uses her jewelry brand as a means to spotlight the country by using natural resources straight from Colombia along with imagery and inspiration that's familiar to her."[We create] handcrafted pieces made in Medellin, Colombia using precious stones such as diamonds, Colombian emeralds, rubies, or other kinds of semiprecious stones," says one of the captions on the Sileo Timeless Jewelry Insta account.

Susana is close with Maluma's family 🥺

As in, not only has Susana made multiple (!!) appearances on Maluma's mom Marlli Arias's Instagram, but she's been shown tons of support by her, including at the launch event for Sileo Timeless Jewelry in February 2023. Plus, in response to the pic, Susana showed tons of love back by leaving the comment, "Mar ❤️❤️❤️."

P.S. This family holiday trip (which Susana was on!) might just be the most wholesome thing ever:

Other important people in Maluma's life who also post cute pics that feature the couple? Oh, just the singer's sister, Manuela Londoño, and his manager, Clara Pablo.

TL;DR: Legit everyone seems to be rooting for the couple. 🥺❤️

Her Insta debut was iconic

Maluma quite literally broke the internet in December 2021 after he posted a blurry pic of himself kissing someone—who has since been assumed to be Susana—in front of a Christmas tree alongside the caption, "Gracias, Santa." Though the pic has since been deleted off of the musician's Insta, we are forever grateful this gem still remains online:

Another reason the pic made waves was because it marked the first time the singer posted a romantic partner on his feed since his split from ex-girlfriend Natalia Barulich in October 2019, so this was a big step!

Susana has inspired *at least* one of Maluma's tracks

Specifically, his single "Junio," which Maluma released in September 2022. I mean, with lyrics like, "You give me heat as if it was summer in June/How cool would it be if you were my girlfriend…With you, I don't need the ocean/You are my sun," how could we not assume the singer is speaking about being head-over-heels with his girlfriend?

Maluma also revealed to Rolling Stone last August that he was more focused on making music that comes from a special and intimate place. "I feel like I’m coming back to my roots," he said at the time, adding, "When I went out from Medellín with my music around the world, I felt like I was losing a little bit of myself. Then I was doing some songs that, okay, maybe they were hits, but I didn’t feel like that was my essence."

"Now I want to be successful, but in a more personal way. I want to go back to Medellín, I want to go back to my farm, be there with my family, with my friends, with my animals. That’s what inspires me right now," he mused.

But what all but confirmed the rumors about "Junio" being a Susana song was when he sang the hit at the 2022 Billboard Latin Music Awards and ended the performance by stepping off the stage to kiss Susana in front of the entire audience (and the world!). Here's a clip of the 🥺 moment:

A proposal was in the mix...but not in the way you think!

Basically, in January 2023 Maluma playfully made a faux proposal at his birthday celebration after he feigned placing a ring on his cake (which he got from *the* Marc Anthony, btw), winked and looked over at Susana, and then gave the ring back while playfully laughing.

We'll call it engagement baby steps ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

And that's pretty much all we know for now! But stay tuned for any more intel we get on Susana and her sweet 'ship with Maluma.
