In a May 2020 interview with Rolling Stone, Bad Bunny revealed that he met Berlingeri when he traveled to Puerto Rico in 2017 to perform at a Zion and Lennox concert. “I met her at some restaurant, while I was eating with my parents and my brothers,” he said, adding that they clicked instantly. “We started talking and from there, we continued to see each other.”
After keeping their relationship under the radar for three years, Bad Bunny and Berlingeri made their first public appearance together by attending a Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks game in February 2020. Of course, fans assumed they were dating, and Bad Bunny fueled the rumors that March by telling Entertainment Tonight that he was “in love.” He went Instagram official with Berlingeri a few days later and then confirmed their romance in April by sharing a video of the pair kissing in a since-deleted Instagram.
While talking to Rolling Stone that May, Bad Bunny confirmed that he and Berlingeri were quarantining together. “Do people really think I’m spending quarantine alone? No! I am with someone, she is very special in my life. This quarantine has made me understand that she is the best companion I could have,” he said. “I am happy with her. [People] don’t know she has helped me a lot in emotional aspects when I needed it the most.”
Considering how serious their relationship seemed, fans thought the pair had gotten engaged after Berlingeri flaunted a diamond ring in an Instagram that August. However, Bad Bunny shut down the rumors that November, per Entertainment Tonight. Although they didn’t have plans to walk down the aisle, Bad Bunny and Berlingeri took their relationship to the next level in September 2021 by making their red carpet debut as a couple at the 2021 Billboard Latin Music Awards.
Things between Bad Bunny and Berlingeri appeared to be going smoothly until August 2022 when Bad Bunny was spotted kissing another girl at a club. While some fans thought that he and Berlingeri had broken up, others speculated the pair were in an open relationship. After he was seen hanging out with another mystery woman in January 2023, however, Bad Bunny and Berlingeri appeared to have split for good.
