Bad Bunny prefers to keep his private life to himself, but interest surrounding his love life was thrust into the spotlight when he began a relationship with Kendall Jenner in 2023.
The Puerto Rican rapper, 31, is no stranger to long-term relationships and was even engaged once, although he is currently believed to be single after he and Kendall split for good in 2024.
While his romantic life may be taking a backseat, his career is going from strength to strength as he will perform the halftime show at the 2026 Super Bowl, and is up for six Grammys at Sunday's ceremony, making history as the first Spanish-language artist nominated for Album, Record, and Song of the Year in the same year.

Kendall Jenner

They never publicly spoke about their romance, but they did little to hide it and enjoyed several PDA moments throughout 2023, including Met Gala after parties in May, and Drake's concert in Inglewood, CA, in August.

They appear to have remained friendly exes as they celebrated New Year's Eve together – just weeks after they called it quits in December 2023. They reportedly rekindled their relationship in May 2024, but by September, they had split for good.
Gabriela Berlingeri

"I met her at some restaurant, while I was eating with my parents and my brothers," he told Rolling Stone in 2020. "We started talking, and from there, we continued to see each other."
He added. "I am happy with her. [People] don't know she has helped me a lot in emotional aspects when I needed it the most."
They made their first public appearance together in February 2020 at a Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks game, before they went Instagram Official in March after he told Entertainment Tonight that he was "in love."

However, Bad Bunny soon set the record straight, telling ET: "No, I'm not that married. Maybe it can be that (engagement). But I think that weddings and get[ting] married scares me. A lot."
The couple appeared to quietly split sometime in 2022, as in August, Bad Bunny was spotted kissing another girl at a club.
Carliz De La Cruz
Bad Bunny had a serious relationship with his college sweetheart, Carliz De la Cruz, for six years. They met at the University of Puerto Rico in 2011 and were engaged in 2016 before splitting in April 2017.
Five years after their breakup, Carliz filed a lawsuit in Puerto Rico against Bad Bunny, claiming he used her voice in his music without her permission. Two of his songs, "Pa Ti and Dos Mil 16," feature a soundbite of Carliz saying "Bad Bunny, baby," which she recorded for him before he became famous.
According to the filing, a rep for the rapper contacted Carliz in May 2022 and offered her $2,000 to purchase the recording, but she declined.
Since Bad Bunny still used it in his songs, she sued him and his manager, Noah Kamil Assad Byrne, for $40 million. In May 2024, El Diario NY reported that he ultimately lost the legal battle and was required to pay Carliz $40 million in damages.
