Anitta and Danilo Mesquita romance rumors

Overview

Speculation regarding a romantic relationship between Brazilian pop star Anitta and actor Danilo Mesquita has intensified following several public sightings.

Initial reports noted the pair were seen in an intimate setting at a DJ show in Rio de Janeiro. This followed their professional collaboration on the Disney+ series ‘Amor da Minha Vida’. Subsequent reports confirmed the pair were seen together leaving a performance of the play ‘O filho’ at the Teatro Fernanda Montenegro in Rio de Janeiro. Previous speculation had been fueled by Mesquita attending Anitta’s ‘EQUILIBRIVM Tour’ in São Paulo, where he was observed with the singer’s father, Mauro Machado.

Recent reports suggest the connection may be further supported by shared spiritual interests, noting that both individuals are practitioners of Afro-Brazilian religions, such as Umbanda and Candomblé. Additionally, observers have pointed to the fact that the two follow each other on private social media profiles.

On August 23, 2026, the rumors gained significant momentum when the singer and Mesquita were seen kissing at a bar in downtown Rio de Janeiro during a performance by the artist Jau. This encounter marks the first documented public romantic moment between the two.

When approached by reporters at Estúdios Globo in Rio de Janeiro, Mesquita previously declined to comment on the rumors, stating he was running late for an engagement and ending the interaction with, “Beijo, até mais” (Kiss, see you later). While the pair has not officially confirmed a relationship, their frequent appearances together continue to make them a central topic in Brazilian entertainment news.
