As Bad Bunny prepares to take the stage for one of the biggest performances of his career, it’s a familiar face from his past that has fans talking.
Gabriela Berlingeri, the Puerto Rican designer and influencer who previously dated the global superstar, sparked renewed speculation about their relationship after sharing a photo that many fans believe hints at a deeper connection, just hours before Super Bowl LX.
In the image posted to her social media, Berlingeri appears wearing a recognizable ring featuring Sansa, the dog she once shared with Bad Bunny. The subtle detail quickly set social media abuzz, reigniting rumors of a reconciliation, engagement, or even a secret marriage between the former couple.
The timing follows a headline-making appearance at the 2026 Grammy Awards on February 1, where Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, made history by winning Album of the Year for ‘Debí Tirar Más Fotos,’ the first all-Spanish-language album to receive the honor.
Berlingeri was spotted inside the Crypto.com Arena during the ceremony, though she did not walk the red carpet with the singer. Later that night, she reshared the Grammys’ Instagram post announcing his win and followed it with a celebratory photo of raised glasses toasting the moment.

“Wedding bells are ringing in the reggaeton world! The rumors are louder than ever: Bad Bunny and Gabriela Berlingeri are said to be engaged,” one fan wrote on X. However, neither Bad Bunny nor Berlingeri has commented on the rumors.
Bad Bunny and Berlingeri first met in 2017 in Puerto Rico. Their relationship began long before his rise to global superstardom, and the two became creative collaborators as well as partners.

At the time, Bad Bunny openly spoke about their bond. “Do people really think I’m spending quarantine alone?” he told Rolling Stone. “No! I am with someone, she is very special in my life. This quarantine has made me understand that she is the best companion I could have.”

That same year, Bad Bunny clarified their relationship during an Instagram Live, according to Telemundo.
“Gabriela and I are intimate friends, we are best friends,” he said. “If she wants to have a boyfriend, she can have one because we are best friends.” “Same for me,” he added, “if I find a girlfriend I can have one.”

Still, attention remained focused on Berlingeri, whose recent social media activity and rumored presence in Santa Clara have kept fans guessing.
Unverified reports have circulated suggesting the former couple may have quietly married in Puerto Rico last summer, though no official confirmation has been made.
