Kendall Jenner was more than just a supportive rumored girlfriend in the crowd during Bad Bunny’s Coachella performance. She was also photographed close to the artist, with him whispering to her while out at the festival. The photos are among the closest looks the public has gotten of the pair showing affection. But it’s not the first time they’ve been photographed: they were recently captured horseback riding together and filmed kissing after a sushi date last month.
In early March, a source told Entertainment Tonight that Jenner was not rushing into a serious relationship with Bunny. She is “focusing on herself, work, family and friends and enjoying her time with [him].”
“They’re taking things slow for now and seeing where things go in the future,” the source continued. “They both really like each other and are just hanging out and having a good time. They get along very well and have mutual friends, so the people around them really like them together. Her family is supportive of their relationship. Everyone is happy that Kendall’s happy.”
Us Weekly was told a similar account by its own source on March 14. “Things are not official between Kendall and Bad Bunny, but they’re seeing each other on a regular basis and getting to know each other better,” the insider said, noting Jenner wasn’t “really looking to date anybody” following her fall split from Devin Booker. Then along came Bad Bunny, and her “feelings are starting to grow” for him.
“It’s not super serious, but she likes him and is open to seeing where things go with him,” the source added. “Kendall appreciates how he treats her with respect and he makes her laugh. He’s very charming and she thinks he’s a great guy. Although things are still fairly new, she definitely sees potential.”
