Who Is Bella Hadid's Boyfriend? All About Adan Banuelos

Meet Bella Hadid's boyfriend.

The model has been dating Adan Banuelos, a decorated Mexican-American equestrian, since the fall of 2023, following her split from art director Marc Kalman.

The couple were first seen together in Fort Worth, Texas, in October 2023, according to photos obtained by TMZ.

Since then, Hadid has taken a step back from modeling and now lives in Texas full-time with Banuelos, whom she referred to as her "partner" and “an incredible older businessman" in an interview with Allure in April 2024.

Read on to learn more about Bella Hadid's boyfriend, Adan Banuelos.

He's a professional equestrian

Banuelos is a professional equestrian who lives in Forth Worth, Texas. The sport runs in his family as he's the son of Ascencion Banuelos, the first Mexican-American ever inducted into the National Cutting Horse Association Hall of Fame.

According to Banuelos's website, he "specializes in training and showing cutting horses; excelling at the highest level." The site adds that "in addition to his own success, he continues to have top-level amateurs & non-pro riders within his program as well."

He's a back-to-back champion

Banuelos has made a big name for himself in the equestrian circuit. He won big at the American Performance Horseman on March 8, 2024, as he defended his 2023 title in the cutter division, taking home the $100,000 prize.

“Last year was an eye-opening experience for me," Banuelos said before he showed. "It was something that none of us have ever experienced before and to be fortunate enough to be back here this year, I don’t have the words to say how grateful I am and how blessed I am to be here and thank you to everybody that helped me along the way."

Banuelos' victory at the prestigious competition marked the second year in a row he clinched the American Performance Horseman title.

He celebrated Valentine's Day with Hadid

Banuelos celebrated his first Valentine's Day with Hadid in February 2024. A long-time horseback rider herself, Hadid posted a tribute to her boyfriend on her Instagram Story with a photo encapsulating their shared love of horses.

Alongside a photo of Banuelos riding a horse while Hadid stood to the side, she wrote, “My valentine💌💋.”

He joined Hadid for her 27th birthday

Shortly after sharing her Valentine's Day tribute to Banuelos on her Instagram, Hadid revealed through another post that she celebrated her October 2023 birthday with her boyfriend, too.

The model posted a carousel on her Instagram, sharing a few sweet snaps of the couple. The duo wore denim outfits with matching black cowboy hats while appearing to lean in for a kiss in a video further in the carousel.

Hadid simply captioned the birthday post: "October 9, 2023. My 27th Birthday🎈🫶🏼."

He supports Hadid's horseback riding accomplishments

Hadid, who's been riding horses her whole life, has had Banuelos' support on the sidelines. In early February 2024, he celebrated the model’s championship qualification with her horse, Metallic Tito, in a video posted to Instagram.

Alongside footage of the competition, Banuelos captioned the post, “Congratulations to Bella and #MetallicTito on their first major aged event finals at their first aged event together! #DreamTeam.”

Hadid has cheered him on at various events

Just as Banuelo has supported Hadid's endeavors, she's supported his as well. The model attended the 2024 American Performance Horseman, where she was seen smiling and cheering him on from the side of the rodeo event in Texas.

She was dressed for the occasion as she wore a black wide-rimmed cowgirl hat, a glittery black open-back top and a Western-inspired turquoise and silver necklace.
