Over the past couple of months, there have been speculations about Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny. The two young love birds have been spotted at games, after-parties, and even concerts together.
However, fans might have gotten a hard launch of their relationship, as they walked holding each other hand in hand in the newest Gucci campaign ads. The campaign, which is called Gucci Valigeria, is all about exploring “the intimacy of traveling together”, as the people.com article put it.
Photos of the couple preparing for a flight dressed in all Gucci were taken by photographer Anthony Seklaoui, known for his work in many Vogue magazines. Along with the photos taken of them at various locations in the airports, an insider shared some thoughts on the two being together.
As they put it in people, they responded and told them “They definitely seem in love and super serious”. However, since the reveal of the two being together, fans have been in constant disappointment and disapproval of them being together.
Many fans of Bad Bunny have stated that they don’t know what the two could possibly have in common, as one of the significant differences between them is that they speak two different languages and neither one of them knows their partner fluently enough.
Not only that, but they also don’t like the fact that he isn’t dating a Latina woman, but instead a traditionally beautiful white American model. While they still adore his music and his huge advocacy for all Latin countries and cultures, this is the only thing that he has done that has received huge and constant backlash.
The relationship between the two though has been going strong besides all of their fans having something to say about them. Since their first spotting with the couple Justin and Hailey Bieber on a double date back in February 2023, they have since seemed to be enjoying each other’s company in public and in private.
Clearly, none of the hate has gotten to them yet, and it possibly never will. Bad Bunny had an interview with Vanity Fair stating that he wouldn’t delve into his private life with his fans, something that he and Kendall share in common when it comes to their romantic relationships.
“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.” Bad Bunny stated to the interviewer. He reiterated that no one besides the people who are close in his life has to know who’s he with or what he does in his downtime or in private.
“Nobody respects anybody’s privacy,” he added. In the early days of the paparazzi, it used to be people with huge flashy cameras taking photos of celebrities, but phones getting better at taking photos and videos. That leads to common people having a much better chance of catching their favorite celebrities doing normal things or trying to not be seen in public.
A good example of that was when a fan recorded the two having dinner in Puerto Rico. This just further proves his point that even a simple task, such as going out to eat can be recorded and filmed for thousands of other people to see.
Looking at the couple from the outside view, both are seen to be having fun exploring their interests and going out together, and the Gucci campaign just proves that their fans have no say on who they date because they will never truly know them when it is just those two alone together.
