Neymar, the renowned soccer star, is now a proud father of three!
On Friday, July 19, the 32-year-old introduced his newborn daughter, Helena, to the world through a heartfelt Instagram post. Helena arrived on July 3, and Neymar shared several adorable photos of her from the hospital.
“Helena ???? 03/07/2024,” Neymar captioned the post, highlighting her birth date. This joyous occasion comes nearly nine months after he announced the birth of his second daughter, Mavie, with his ex, Bruna Biancardi.
In one of the photos, Neymar is seen with his arm around his 12-year-old son, Davi Lucca, as they both look through a glass screen at the sleeping newborn in a hospital cot. Another photo captures Helena in a charming knit babygro, held up by a doctor. A close-up clip shows her peacefully asleep, and a final image depicts Davi tenderly holding his baby sister while seated in an armchair.

Helena is Neymar’s second daughter, whom he shares with model Amanda Kimberlly. Kimberlly also celebrated their daughter’s birth on Instagram, sharing a black-and-white photo of Helena’s tiny foot and captioning it, “My favorite month, July †.”
In her Instagram Stories, Kimberlly expressed gratitude to her doctor, writing in Portuguese, “A special thank you to my doctor who went beyond the professional side, welcomed me and gave me a lot of strength during these 9 months.” She also thanked her support network, sharing a photo of friends standing behind a glass screen at the hospital, with a caption in Portuguese translating to, “And my support network, thank you for EVERYTHING!”
Neymar’s first daughter, Mavie, was born in October 2023. He and Bruna Biancardi, 28, announced Mavie’s arrival on October 7, 2023. However, a month later, Biancardi revealed on Instagram that the couple, who had started dating in early 2022, had parted ways.
“This is a private matter, but as I deal with news, assumptions, and jokes every day, I inform you that I am not in a relationship,” Biancardi wrote in her message, translated from Portuguese. “We are Mavie’s parents, and that is the reason for our bond,” she concluded.
As Neymar embarks on this new chapter with his growing family, fans and well-wishers around the world are celebrating the joyful news of Helena’s arrival.
