Bella Hadid is the picture-perfect horse girl (complimentary) — cowboy boyfriend and all.
The supermodel was spotted cheering on her rumored boyfriend Adan Banuelos this week in Arlington, Texas as he competed in the American Performance Horseman event. Banuelos is a successful equestrian and horse trainer, according to his website.
Hadid was positively glowing as she was photographed in the crowd at the event, smiling and laughing throughout the competition. She emulated a full western cowgirl with a brown cowboy hat, a brown bedazzled halter top, and black leather pants. She paired her outfit with chunky rings and a silver and turquoise statement necklace.
Afterward, Hadid looked like a proud girlfriend as she and Banuelos (also wearing a cowboy hat, obviously) embraced. The event was held at Teton Ridge at the Globe Life Field in Arlington and is part of the American Rodeo. Hadid is an experienced equestrian herself and frequently shares her horses on social media — including last month when she posted that she qualified for the finals in an unnamed competition.
Bella Hadid and Adan Banuelos were first rumored to be romantically linked in October 2023 when they were spotted kissing in Texas. Hadid confirmed their relationship on Valentine's Day by posting a photo of the two of them on her story. The photo included a caption "My valentine💌💋."
She also shared a photo dump last month from her 27th birthday in October, which appeared to be an intimate group dinner in a barn with friends and family. In one photo, Hadid is pictured with Banuelos as they hold hands and are turned away from the camera. In another snapshot, Hadid is shown blowing out the candles on a cake.
The model has taken time off from the runway after working to treat her Lyme disease. In August 2023, Hadid shared that she had undergone more than 100 days of treatment in a vulnerable Instagram post that included photos of herself going through those treatments.
“The little me that suffered would be so proud of grown me for not giving up on myself,” Hadid wrote in the caption, while also thanking her mom for her support and keeping her medical records. “Living in this state, worsening with time and work while trying to make myself, my family and the people who support me, proud, had taken a toll on me in ways I can’t really explain.”
