Despite their recent breakup, Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny appear to have maintained a friendly relationship. According to a source, the 28-year-old supermodel and the 29-year-old Puerto Rican musician spent New Year together with friends in the vicinity of Barbados. The gathering also included Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey Baldwin Bieber. However, the source clarified that Jenner and Bad Bunny were not on the same flight and were not reconciling romantically.
On Wednesday, the star of “The Kardashians” shared a series of photos from a beachside retreat with her close friend Hailey, 27. In the Instagram pictures, Kendall, the founder of 818 Tequila, donned a sheer cream dress by Helsa and posed solo on the beach with a glass of wine before joining Hailey, the founder of Rhode, for a joint photo. Reflecting on the passage of time, Jenner captioned the carousel with a thoughtful message expressing gratitude for the past and optimism for the future.
The reunion of Jenner and Bad Bunny follows their December breakup, which occurred after less than a year of dating. The last public appearance of the former couple was in October when they attended the Saturday Night Live afterparty at L’Avenue in New York City, where Jenner supported Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Martínez Ocasio, after his hosting and performance on the show.
During an interview with Vanity Fair in the same month, the Solo de Mí singer stated that he wasn’t inclined to clarify details about his private life but did admit to improving his English for someone special. He mentioned, “With some people, I speak English — with some specific people. With one of them, I couldn’t talk to her before.”
The romantic rumors between the recording artist and Jenner started in February 2023 when they were seen on a double date with the Biebers in Los Angeles. A source at the time revealed that they were introduced by friends, and Bad Bunny had recently moved to L.A. The relationship progressed, with the couple attending events together, including Coachella in April, a romantic horseback ride, a vacation in Idaho in July, and their front-row debut at Milan Fashion Week in September.
Despite their breakup, sources in the past had described the couple as being in love and super serious. However, the recent interaction near Barbados suggests that their relationship is currently one of friendship rather than romance.
