Brazilian country music singer Zé Felipe revealed he rescued his one-year-old from drowning just three days after moving into his new mansion.
In a video posted to his Instagram story on Thursday, the 26-year-old, whose real name is José Costa, said his youngest child, Maria Flor, was playing with her three-year-old sister, Maria Alice, when she slipped and fell into the pool.
Felipe who was dressed in street clothes, jumped into the pool and managed to pull out the toddler.
‘Maria Flor was pushing those things over there,’ the singer said as he pointed towards a pool float. ‘There’s a step, and she started to drown. I jumped in with my sneakers on, my phone on and everything. It’s crazy! You have to be careful.’

Maria Flor apparently wasn’t fazed and was back in the pool as Zé Felipe relived the scary incident.
‘You were lucky I jumped. Next time I’ll at least let you have a little [pool water],’ Zé Felipe joked.
Zé Felipe and his influencer girlfriend Virginia Fonseca, who is expecting the couple’s third child – a son – moved into the home Monday.
The family held a special ceremony prior to walking into the residence by having a local priest bless it.

It took three years to build the lavish residence, which is located on a 7,000 square meter plot of land in the Goiânia, the capital of the central state of Goiás.
The mansion features six suites, a recording studio, spa , beauty salon, sauna, gym, playroom and while cellar.
It even caught the eyes of star Brazilian singer, Anita, who several months ago reached out to Fonseca for an invite after seeing glimpse of the home on a video posted to Fonseca’s Instagram.
‘Girl, can I stay at this spa for a few days while I’m in Brazil? Kisses, love u,’ Anita said.
