Ricky Martin reveals that his father encouraged him to tell the world that he is gay. Martin dodged speculation about his sexuality for years and said his professional team urged him to hide.

The author of hits like 'Livin la vida loca', 52, who divorced the Syrian-Swedish artist Jwan Yosef in 2023 after six years of marriage and is the father of four children, said that sending that message was something "incredible", and joked that he would like to do it more times.
