Bad Bunny and Gabriela Berlingeri Romance
Bad Bunny and Gabriela Berlingeri have only made their first red carpet debut at the Billboard Latin Music Awards despite dating for more than three years.
Last year, the 27-year-old Puerto Rican singer told Rolling Stone that he was with someone, and that was Berlingeri, whom he said was "very special" in his life.
"This quarantine has made me understand that she [Berlingeri] is the best companion I could have," Bad Bunny said.
Gabriela Berlingeri and the Puerto Rican superstar met in 2017 while at a dinner with his father and brother in his home country. After that encounter, Bad Bunny said, "they've been dating ever since."
Bad Bunny noted that Berlingeri has helped him record his collaboration with Latina pop diva Jennifer Lopez in 2018, ET Online reported.
On February 28 last year, Bad Bunny and Berlingeri were photographed together at a Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat game in Miami. Two days after that, the couple was also spotted at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.
On March 7 last year, Bad Bunny made his relationship with Berlingeri Instagram official. He posted a snap of him and her girlfriend.
Then in August of the same year, the couple was rumored to be married as Berlingeri rocked a giant diamond on her ring finger. However, Bad Bunny debunked the rumors in November, saying that he was not married and that getting married "scares" him a lot.
