Kay, this sighting might just be the nail in the coffin for those of you (me) who were kinda on the fence (in denial) about this whole Kendall and Bad Bunny sitch for the past few weeks. 😭 Apparently, the two were spotted on Hollywood’s biggest night getting into the same car after spending some time at Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s after-party, which…kay, sick invite. Anyway!! Although it’s unclear whether or not the supermodel and Latin pop star showed up to the star-studded affair as a unit, they were most certainly captured hopping into the same Maybach at the end of the night. See the pics and get ready to weep right this way.

Kendall Jenner is on the cover of WSJ Magazine and is obvi asked about her relationship with Benito. But the vibe is sadly “no comment,” although Kendall does explain, “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.” She continues, “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.”

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny is also asked about their romance for his recent Rolling Stone cover and muses, “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. That’s the only answer. In the end, the only thing I have is my privacy.”

“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,” he adds. Not-ed!

December 17, 2023

People reports that Bad Bunny and Kendall have split, and an Entertainment Tonight source comes through with some details, 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. They have crazy busy schedules and know they're still young and have a lot more to experience individually before settling down."

December 18, 2023

Us Weekly comes through with an insider who says “Friends aren’t surprised that Kendall and Bad Bunny have broken up. They never really saw their relationship going the distance anyway. Of course, they want the best for their friend, but they really didn’t feel like Kendall was as compatible with Bad Bunny as she was in past relationships with other people. At the same time, Kendall has had a few on-off relationships in the past, so they wouldn’t be totally surprised if she got back together with him at some point.”

Aaand that brings us up to date. Stay tuned!
