Margaret, 32, is an Australian and Chinese filmmaker, writer, model, and former editor-in-chief of Vogue China magazine.
Miguel and Margaret began dating in 2023, VIBE reported.
Miguel’s fans were stunned by the news.
One person wrote on X (Twitter): “Wait, THE Margaret Zhang and the singer Miguel had a baby together?! Wowowow! The levels. This was not on my bingo card! Congratulations!”
Miguel was previously married to his high school sweetheart, Nazanin Mandi.
Miguel and Nazanin, 38, were married in Simi Valley, California in 2018. Prior to their marriage, the high school sweethearts dated for 13 chaotic years. They broke up and reunited numerous times over the years.
Nazanin filed for divorce in September 2021, citing “irreconcilable differences.” They reunited about 6 months later.
In 2022 Nazanin filed for divorce a second time. She also cited “irreconcilable differences” and asked the court to divide their assets and properties according to their prenuptial agreement.
In an interview in March 2021, Nazanin explained why she and Miguel grew apart.
“We were used to being around each other a lot, but then we were also used to traveling a lot. So keeping the spark alive was definitely something we had to stay on — because when you’re in different cities, it’s automatic to feel excitement [when you see each other again].
“But being home [together] all the time, it’s like, ‘Okay, we have to find new things to watch, and to do and to read.’ It was a lot, but overall, we did great. I have no complaints, [and] am grateful for everything.”
