Bad Bunny might be in a happy relationship now, but his past relationship with Kendall Jenner will follow them both forever, especially when they are expected to run into each other at high-profile events. The former couple is making headlines once again after an awkward red carpet interaction between the singer, Kris Jenner, and Kim Kardashian.
At the 2026 Met Gala, the Puerto Rican superstar had a noticeably uncomfortable exchange with Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian. As Bad Bunny approached Kris, he extended his arm for a one-sided hug that ended up looking slightly offbeat, especially after Kris gently church pat his arm while he leaned in to speak.
He then shifted toward Kim for a brief conversation. While both appeared to be polite, they were clearly reserved, eventually turning away to engage with Vogue’s team, who were doing a livestream.
Online reactions began circulating with some social media users describing the interaction as “tense.” Watcher said the three of them had minimal eye contact, and the body language suggested awkwardness rather than any deeper friction.
Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny
The backdrop to this moment is, of course, Bad Bunny’s past relationship with Kendall Jenner. The pair dated on and off between 2023 and 2024, and while they tried to maintain a relatively low-profile relationship, they consistently drew public interest, especially as Bad Bunny is the #1 singer in the world and Jenner is considered the highest-paid top model of this era.

Kendall, however, appears focused on moving forward. She has recently been linked to Jacob Elordi, and sources suggest the connection is cautious. According to Page Six, they are “hesitant” to make things official; therefore, they are taking things slow.

Bad Bunny Rekindles Romance With Gabriela Berlingeri
Meanwhile, Bad Bunny is reportedly back with Gabriela Berlingeri, his longtime on-and-off partner. Gabriela, who is also Puerto Rican, has been a steady presence in his life for years, often appearing alongside him during major career milestones, including songs and music videos.
He was publicly spotted with Berlingeri at a Lakers game back in March 2020. Once the coronavirus pandemic struck, Benito began sharing more of his life with Berlingeri, posting videos on how they were staying safe and quarantined in Puerto Rico.
