Over the past few months, Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny have been spending a lot of time together, and it looks like their relationship may actually have some staying power.

After Kendall and longtime boyfriend Devin Booker called it quits toward the end of 2022, she was a single lady — at least, for a few months. In February 2023, Kendall and Bad Bunny were seen leaving a Los Angeles restaurant together, reportedly on a double date with Justin and Hailey Bieber.
"Kendall recently started hanging out with him," a source told People at the time.
"They were introduced by friends. He moved to L.A. a few weeks ago and bought a house. She likes him and is having fun," the source continued. "He is different from guys she dated in the past. He is very charming."

May 2023: A Major Met Moment
After Kendall enjoyed Bad Bunny's set at Coachella (and even took in another day of the festival with him), they joined each other for another big pop culture event in early May: the Met Gala. Although they didn't walk the red carpet together, they did attend an after-party together.
Where They Are Today
Not long after the Met Gala, Kendall and Bad Bunny headed to Puerto Rico on vacation and were spotted in a TikTok video posted by one of the friends they traveled with. Then, on May 12, they attended a Lakers game together, joined by Kendall's friend Travis Bennett. Kendall and Bad Bunny even coordinated their outfits by both wearing snakeprint boots (a very couple-y thing to do). Things are getting interesting!
So far, they haven't made their relationship social media official, but if things keep going the way they're going, that could be happening soon. Stay tuned!
