Bella Hadid’s boyfriend Adan Banuelos just shared a rare and affectionate glimpse into their relationship, and fans are loving it.
On Oct. 28, the award-winning equestrian marked what appeared to be their first anniversary and Hadid’s birthday on Oct. 9 with a heartfelt Instagram post.
He shared a carousel of cozy photos of the couple kissing, holding hands, riding horses together and laughing side by side.
Banuelos wrote in the post: “October has become a special month. It is the month God sent you to. Even with all the chaos and ugliness, He has given us something pure and beautiful. I love you, baby. I will continue to remind you every day how much.”
Hadid sweetly replied, “Honey, I love you, thank you my buddy. This is the sweetest… ever.”
Although Banuelos is well-known in the rodeo world, he has kept their romance low-key and largely offline since they started dating in the fall of 2023.
Most of what he has shared publicly relates to their time together in the stables, which makes this loving post feel especially meaningful.
Some time ago, the model recently returned to the catwalk after a hospital stay.
Her comeback caused concern when she appeared to struggle while walking during a fashion show, possibly due to the weight of her wings.
When a TikTok user asked, “Bella Hadid, what’s wrong with you,” Hadid jumped into the comments to set the record straight.
“Girl, I got my period that morning and my stamina isn’t up to par after all the hospital stay, but I did my best and I love you for it. I’m fine, I swear,” she wrote.
She also apologized to supporters, adding: “I’m sorry if I let you down. I love you, I mean it.”
Hadid was hospitalized in September for treatment of Lyme disease.
She and her mother, Yolanda Hadid, shared moments from her recovery during that time.
In late September, just before Paris Fashion Week, Hadid said she was slowly regaining her strength, writing next to a photo from the gym, “First day at the gym in a long time. Just walking but still! Getting my stamina back.”
Between Banuelos’ loving tribute and her honest health update, it looks like Hadid is surrounding herself with support as she continues to heal, while also enjoying sweet moments with the person closest to her.
