In 1984, at 19, Mercury married electronic engineer Zalther Portela Laborda Póvoas, her high school boyfriend.
The next year, on September 3, 1985, she gave birth to their first child, Gabriel (who is also a singer and songwriter).
The following year, she gave birth to a girl named Giovana (who is now a dancer in Mercury's ensemble).
In 1996, Mercury and Póvoas divorced.
That same year, she was pointed as the reason for the split between Chico Buarque and Marieta Severo.
In an interview to ISTOÉ magazine, Mercury said that "it was a levity what they did, an irresponsibility that caused an uproar in my life and in the lives of both of them".
In April 2013 Daniela Mercury used social media to make public her relationship with the journalist Malu Verçosa, saying that "Malu is now my wife, my family, my inspiration to sing."
Daniela Mercury and Malu Verçosa married on October 12, 2013 in a civil ceremony in Salvador da Bahia, both dressed in all white.
Her father, initially critical about their relationship, was present.
