Early Life and Education

Virginia Fonseca is now 26 years old; she was born on April 6, 1999, in Danbury, Connecticut, in the United States. Her mother is Brazilian (Maria Margareth Pimenta Serrão) and her father is of Portuguese-American heritage (Mário Constantino Serrão).

When she was three years old, her family moved to Governador Valadares in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, her mother’s place of origin.

During her teenage years, Virginia lived in Portugal for about one year with her family before returning to Governador Valadares. At age 18, to pursue professional opportunities, she moved to Londrina in the state of Paraná. Over time she relocated to Goiânia.

Personal Life

Virginia Fonseca was in a relationship with YouTuber Pedro Rezende between 2018 and 2020. In 2020 she entered into a relationship with singer Zé Felipe; the two married on March 26, 2021, in a small, private ceremony.

Virginia and Zé Felipe had three children together: Maria Alice (born May 30, 2021), Maria Flor (born October 22, 2022) and José Leonardo (born September 8, 2024). In May 2025, the couple publicly announced their separation.

Career

Virginia Fonseca began her YouTube channel in 2016, while still in her late teens. Her third video, in which she presented a funk music playlist, achieved over 100,000 subscribers, marking an early milestone in her digital growth.

She briefly worked as a DJ, performing at local parties, though that path did not thrive. After her relationship with Pedro Rezende, she joined his digital agency ADR, and her visibility grew with joint appearances, challenges, and social campaigns.

After ending her contract with ADR following her breakup with Rezende, she aligned with Zé Felipe: she became his promotional figure, dancing in his music videos, helping with choreography and sharing promotional content.

In 2021, Virginia launched multiple business ventures: the marketing and advertising agency Talismã Digital, the skincare and beauty products brand WePink, and a clinic of aesthetics (SK Aesthetic), which she later sold. In 2022 she introduced a babycare product line named Maria’s Baby by Virginia Fonseca.

In late 2023, she was hired by the Brazilian television network SBT to host a weekly show. On April 6, 2024, which was her 25th birthday, she premiered her program Sabadou com Virginia, a Saturday show combining interviews, games and music segments.

Her digital reach is notable: on Instagram, her account @virginia has tens of millions of followers. Her brand ventures have also generated substantial revenue: for example, her WePink company reportedly sold over 110,000 perfume bottles in March 2023 and reached R$17 million within three months of launch.

Awards

• Prêmio Jovem Brasileiro – Digital Revelation (2019)
• iBest Awards – Tiktoker of the Year (2021)
• Prêmio Área Vip – Best Influencer
• Prêmio Contigo! Online – Couple of the Year (with Zé Felipe)

Net Worth

Virginia Fonseca’s net worth is estimated at $10 million. Her income sources include revenues from social media advertising, brand endorsements, e-commerce (beauty and baby products), and her television work.

Controversy

In March 2023, her WePink beauty product line faced criticism for allegedly false advertising. The foundation she promoted claimed to function as a “dermomake” (a cosmetic that also treats skin), but was registered in Brazil (Anvisa) as grade 1, which critics said contradicted her claims. Some users reported dryness, highlighting lines, redness, and issues with water resistance.

She was also accused of selling courses that did not deliver on promised results, charging for photos with fans, and launching a baby hygiene brand (Maria’s Baby) that allegedly borrowed heavily from the branding of Kylie Jenner’s Kylie Baby.

In 2025, she was called to testify in a Brazilian Senate commission (CPI das Bets) over suspected excessive profits from promoting online betting platforms. During the hearing, she was criticized for informal conduct, confusion with the microphone and for integrating brand promotions within the session.

Her maternity decisions have also sparked debate: in 2023, a video circulated of her daughter Maria Alice resisting being held by her, which drew public commentary and media attention; her husband’s response video with strong language intensified the coverage.
