Is Bad Bunny Secretly Engaged After Split From Kendall Jenner? Finger Ring At Grammys Sparks Buzz

Bad Bunny is currently dominating the headlines as he made music history at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards on February 1, 2026. He became the first artist to win Album of the Year for an all-Spanish-language body of work with his LP, Debí Tirar Más Fotos. The Puerto Rican rapper and singer was visibly emotional when his name was announced, portraying his overwhelming emotion. As the spotlight fell on him, fans noticed new jewellery on his ring finger, speculating it to be evidence of a secret engagement. Read to know the truth behind the buzz.

Bad Bunny was speculated to be secretly engaged

Bad Bunny (real name, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) was spotted wearing a gold band on his left ring finger at the 2026 Grammy Awards, which sparked immediate engagement rumours online. The focus was on the 31-year-old's hand as he held the microphone to deliver his speech after winning the Album of the Year title. As clips of the speech went viral, particularly due to his anti-ICE statements, online users were quick to point out a new piece of accessory on Bad Bunny's finger. They speculated that it was the singer's confirmation of having a secret fiancée following his breakup with model, Kendall Jenner.

Truth behind Bad Bunny's rumoured engagement ring

Sources close to Bad Bunny issued a statement regarding the singer's engagement rumours. Responding to TMZ's queries, they clarified that the jewellery on Bad Bunny's finger was a stylish gift from Cartier, not an engagement ring or a sign of a secret relationship. Bad Bunny is known to be an avid collector of vintage Cartier watches and is frequently seen in public wearing them, which explains the brand's interest in him. Additionally, the MONACO singer is known for his extensive statement jewellery pieces as part of his personal style, which suggests the insider's statement is true.

Previous instances of Bad Bunny's engagement buzz

Grammys 2026 is not the first time Bad Bunny sparked engagement rumours. Previously, speculation peaked in August 2020, when his longtime partner, Gabriela Berlingeri, posted a video wearing a massive diamond ring on her ring finger while quarantining together. Following months of wedding talk, Bad Bunny addressed the rumours in a November 2020 interview with Entertainment Tonight, stating he was "not that married" but teased an engagement. Two years later, the engagement chatter resurfaced following the release of his Tití Me Preguntó music video in June 2022.

The MV includes a wedding scene with Gabriela as the bride. While artistically symbolic, he told GQ it was not a real-life marriage. Although all of these were just mere rumours, Bad Bunny was allegedly betrothed once. Before his global stardom, he reportedly proposed to his college sweetheart, Carliz De La Cruz Hernández, on New Year's Day in 2016. The wedding was planned for July of that year, but was called off after he signed his first major record deal.

Bad Bunny's last publicly-known relationship

Bad Bunny's last highly publicised relationship was with supermodel Kendall Jenner. The pair was first linked in February 2023 after a double date with Justin and Hailey Bieber. Their relationship was marked by several high-profile public appearances, including at Coachella, sitting courtside at Lakers games, and attending Met Gala afterparties. In 2023, they starred together in a Gucci Valigeria ad campaign, which got their fans gushing. However, within months, speculation about their split surfaced. In December 2023, multiple sources reported that the couple had broken up due to busy schedules.

Bad Bunny and Kendall Jenner were reported to have rekindled their romance after being seen together at a Met Gala afterparty in May 2024 and were officially back together the next month. In September 2024, reports indicated they split for a second time, as the relationship "didn't work out long-term." This time, the breakup was permanent, and there was no chance of reconciliation. As of February 2026, Bad Bunny is considered single and focused on his thriving career rather than romance.
