Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny caused a stir in February with their unexpected romance—but now it’s been confirmed that the It couple has called it quits.
The supermodel—who previously dated NBA star Devin Booker—first connected with the Grammy-winning Puerto Rican rapper through mutual friends when he moved to Los Angeles earlier this year. The pair then embarked on a low-key though buzzy romance, as reflected in both their joint sighting Coachella in April and their date nights around Los Angeles.
Ahead, see everything we know about the model and rapper’s relationship—from the first dating rumors to their confirmed split.

December 17, 2023: An insider confirms that Kendall and Bad Bunny have gone their separate ways.
After less than a year of dating, an insider confirms to People that Bunny and Jenner have called it quits. A source gives some insight to Entertainment Tonight, saying, “Kendall and Bad Bunny have been doing their own things lately, and things slowly started to fizzle out between them. They both knew going into this that it likely wouldn’t be a forever type of relationship, and that was mutually understood from the get-go.”
Apparently timing is the key to the split, as the source adds, “They have crazy-busy schedules and know they’re still young and have a lot more to experience individually before settling down.”
However, despite the end of their relationship, the source notes that there “isn’t any negativity between them and they still want the best for one another.” In particular, the model’s family “still thinks highly of [Bad Bunny].” The source adds, “They just want her to be with whoever makes her happy, treats her with love and respect, and someone that understands and can handle the attention that comes along with dating her with poise and grace.”

September 12, 2023: Bad Bunny speaks out on fans criticizing his romance with Kendall.
In a candid interview with Vanity Fair, the musician gets real about enforcing personal boundaries when it comes to his private life and fame.
“They [fans] don’t know how you feel, they don’t know how you live, they don’t know anything, and I really don’t want them to know,” he tells the magazine. “I’m not really interested in clarifying anything because I have no commitment to clarify anything to anyone. I am clear and my friend Jomar is clear and my mother is clear. They are the only ones to whom I have to clarify anything. As for Juliana Dominguez from Mississippi, I have nothing I need to clarify to her. Never. About anything.”
He adds, “There are people who say that artists have to put up with it. I don’t have to accept anything and everything because I wanted to be an artist. At the end of the day, you listen to me because you want to. I don’t force you to.”
He also lambasts the culture of people normalizing the filming of strangers in public spaces.
“It used to be a guy with a camera and a flash and they fuck with your eyes like that. Nowadays, everybody is a paparazzo,” he says. “Everyone is taking photos, everyone is recording. Nobody respects anybody’s privacy, and not only my privacy as a celebrity, but yours.... Because if right now you go out there and your pants are ripped and you can see a butt cheek, or a pigeon shits on you, there’s a bastard who will film you and take a picture of you.”

In new interviews, the couple open up about keeping their romance out of the spotlight.
Speaking with WSJ magazine, Jenner has “no comment” when asked about her relationship status. She explains, “I try [to] find the balance of keeping things private and keeping things sacred, [and] also not letting the unfortunate frustration and stress of everyone trying to get in on it stop me from enjoying my side. Does that make sense? … I’ll go out of my way to do things as privately as possible because I just think that that’s the healthier way of dealing with relationships anyway.”
Bad Bunny echoes the model’s sentiment in an interview with Rolling Stone. “I know something is going to come out. I know [people are] going to say something. People know everything about me, so what’s left for me to protect? My private life, my personal life,” he tells the outlet. “That’s the only answer. In the end, the only thing I have is my privacy.”
He adds, “We’re in the worst time, the worst moment for the privacy of other humans; not just artists, but human beings. Today, no one respects the privacy or life of anyone. … I keep living. Fans are always going to want to know more, but I don’t focus on that. I’m always going to keep living my way.”

Onstage, the rapper directly alludes to recent dating rumors for the first time in an emphatic speech. “People think they know the lives of famous people—but they don’t,” he says in Spanish. “They don’t know what we feel, what we live through.

If you really want to get to know me, I invite you to my home.”
