As fans anticipate their wedding, here's what to know about Anthony's soon-to-be bride.

Nadia Ferreira Just Celebrated a Birthday

Anthony might have proposed on Ferreira's birthday! On Tuesday, the model turned 23 and shared a photo of her birthday cake on Instagram. 

"Best birthday ever 🥳🎂✨," she captioned the pic.

She Has Been Living in Mexico

While Ferreira was born in Villarrica, Paraguay, as of February she was living in Mexico, and posted about her positive experience in the country. 

"Very happy and grateful for the great welcome and coexistence with Ambassador Gloria Amarilla and the entire team of the Embassy of Paraguay in Mexico," she captioned a photo (translated from Spanish) of herself with Amarilla. "I have been living in Mexico for more than two years, a country that opened its doors to me in such a wonderful way that today I consider it my second home. Thanks to the team for the incredible attention! Paraguayans in Mexico."

Coincidentally, this is not the first pageant contestant that has been in a relationship with Anthony. The singer's former wife, Shannon De Lima, was a silver medalist in the 2005 Miss Earth Venezuela beauty pageant.

In March, Ferreira commentated on styles from the 2022 Oscars red carpet for ¡HOLA! TV. 

In 2015, she also participated in Telefuturo's Parodiando, a TV show in which participants had to perform parodies of famous singers. Ferreira parodied Taylor Swift and Violetta.

She'll be Wife No. 4

Ferreira will soon be Anthony's fourth wife. He was married to Dayanara Torres from 2000 to 2004, to Jennifer Lopez from 2004 to 2014, and to Shannon De Lima from 2014 to 2017.
