Colombian singer J Balvin dedicated an emotional birthday message to Valentina Ferrer, according to UnoTV, just days after the pair confirmed they had separated. The outlet reported the message on Sunday, September 20, 2026.
UnoTV described the post as affectionate, and coverage of the split has drawn heavy attention from fans online. One outlet, ViveUSA.mx, reported that followers reacted strongly to the gesture, with some commenting that people often only appreciate what they have once it is gone.
Separately, Univision reported on a supposed reason behind the breakup, noting that infidelity was reportedly not the cause. That account has not been confirmed by either person.
The split itself was covered by multiple outlets, including Cuarto Poder Chiapas, while Yahoo Vida y Estilo reported on the birthday message directed at Ferrer, referred to in that coverage as Balvin's ex.
Neither Balvin nor Ferrer has issued a detailed public statement explaining the end of the relationship, based on the reporting available. The timeline of the separation, beyond its confirmation in the days before the birthday post, has not been specified in the coverage reviewed.
What to watch next: whether either Balvin or Ferrer addresses the split directly, and whether the reported cause gains confirmation from their representatives.
