It’s New York Fashion Week, and the stars are in the Big Apple. Wednesday saw Tory Burch’s Fall 2026 show, and amid those in the front row was Cuban-American superstar Marcello Hernández. The Saturday Night Live alum wasn’t alone, though; he had his beautiful girlfriend, Ana Amelia Batlle Cabral, by his side.
The two arrived hand in hand, looking effortless, cool, and coordinated. Hernández looked polished with a hipster vibe, wearing a rust-colored knit layered over a white hooded sweatshirt, paired with light trousers and sneakers. His architect boo complemented him in a tailored slate-blue blazer over a flowing mint midi skirt, finished with pointed heels and a soft neutral clutch.

At one point in the night, they posed with Thompson, who is Afro-Latina, making for an epic moment for the culture. Clips from the night have been going viral, including the crowd singing along to Dolly Parton’s hit “9 to 5.”

The appearance comes at a celebratory moment for Hernández, whose first Netflix comedy special, Marcello Hernández: American Boy, is now streaming. The show marks a major career milestone for the comedian, who has steadily become one of SNL’s favorite voices. From his sketches with Bad Bunny and ongoing gags with Sabrina Carpenter, he has truly become a viral sensation.
