The family of renowned Croatian singer Siniša Vuco is expanding, as his 29-year-old son, Vilibald Vuco, and his fiancée, Meriam Benmiloud, are expecting their first child. The couple shared their joyous news on social media, revealing they are anticipating the arrival of a baby girl.

Their announcement followed a celebratory "gender reveal" party. In a video shared online, the couple jointly popped a black balloon, releasing a cascade of pink confetti, confirming they would soon welcome a daughter. Vilibald captioned the emotional moment simply with "Our world."

Meriam Benmiloud, who has Croatian-Tunisian heritage and is four years younger than Vilibald, met him three years ago through mutual friends on the island of Hvar. Their relationship, which began as a chance encounter, is now entering a new family chapter. This news comes just two months after their engagement.

Vilibald is one of four children of Siniša Vuco and his wife Jelena. While he comes from a musically prominent family, he has forged his own professional path outside the entertainment industry. After an early football career was cut short by injury, he transitioned into the business world and now works in real estate.

Our world.
