Kiké Hernández and his wife are expanding their family!
The Los Angeles Dodgers player, 33, and the former Miss Universe Puerto Rico, 36, are expecting their second baby together, revealing the exciting news on Instagram. The joint post featured two black-and-white photos of the couple both showing off their stomachs. In the second picture, the expectant parents shared a sweet kiss.
“KIKITO coming soon! 🩵 #2026,” they wrote in the caption.
The couple is already parents to daughter Penelope, whom they welcomed in January 2021. The famed baseball player shared the exciting news of his little girl’s arrival with an announcement on Instagram.
“01.15.21! Penélope Isabel was born at 4:28pm. BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!’ Hernández wrote in the caption of photos of himself and his daughter. “The day I got drafted I thought I was on top of the world, the day I made my Big League debut I thought nothing would compare, the day I got married I felt like the world stopped, the day we won the World Series I thought I had it all; NOTHING compares to the moment when I met my little girl!!”
In honor of Hernández’s first Father’s Day in 2021, Vicente sang her husband’s praises on Instagram.
“Witnessing you become a dad is one of the best feelings in the world!” she wrote. “You really are the funnest (and finest 🤤) most loving girl dad. We are so lucky.”

After a romantic proposal in Big Sur, the pair officially tied the knot on Dec. 8, 2018, at home in Puerto Rico. The couple wanted their guests, many of whom would be traveling to the island for the first time, to have a distinctly “Puerto Rican experience,” they told Inside Weddings.
Since the soon-to-be mom of two couldn’t decide which part of the venue should be the backdrop to their vows, she chose to surround herself and Hernández with all of their friends and family.
“I didn’t know which way to face the chairs because we had the fort, the ocean, and the capitol,” she explained. “We opted for a circular ceremony, where guests could enjoy different views, with us in the center.”
