While that romance moves forward, Jenner faced reminders of her own past. Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, dated Jenner from February to October 2023. The pair briefly reunited in 2024 before splitting again.
Cameras showed Jenner holding Hailey Bieber’s hand during the halftime show. Fans on social media described the moment as uncomfortable. Bad Bunny later appeared to reference the breakup on Instagram. He posted a message that read, “Stop dating people who don’t get your music.”
Sources spoke about the split after it happened. Us Weekly reported Jenner saw long-term potential with the singer.
