Buckle up, because we’re about to dive into the wild, wild world of supermodel meets cowboy. And yes, I said cowboy. Picture this: Bella Hadid, 27, the model who’s practically on a first-name basis with glam, is dating Adan Banuelos, 35, a bonafide cowboy who probably wrestles tumbleweeds in his spare time. The gossip started swirling back in October 2023 when they were caught smooching in Texas. Not New York, not LA… Texas. Yeehaw!
Things got official (like, Instagram official – the most sacred of all relationship milestones) in February 2024. Fast forward a bit, and Bella moved to Texas to be closer to her cowboy. I mean, forget skyscrapers, who wouldn’t want a front-row seat to the rodeo?
Now, Adan, being the man of mystery that he is, doesn’t spill tea often. But he recently hopped on the Along For The Ride podcast and, boy, did he share some gold.
First bombshell: Bella, Miss High Fashion herself, moved into Adan’s 5th-wheel trailer. Yes, a trailer, people. She went from high-end runway to high-end driveway. “She did do the 5th wheel, happily. It was badass,” Adan said, probably while tipping his cowboy hat and riding into the sunset. He even joked, “That 5th wheel always felt small, but when you get someone like Bella in there, it went from trailer to freakin’ mansion real quick.” I’m picturing the HGTV episode now: Bella Hadid: Tiny Home Makeover.
Adan went on to explain that before things got too serious, he had to make sure Bella understood his cowboy ways. I mean, you can’t just throw a pair of Louboutins in the mud and call it a day. “It was cool because I wanted that to be a part of our relationship,” Adan said, presumably while trying to figure out if cowboy boots go with couture (spoiler: they do). He was floored that Bella didn’t care about material things. Apparently, all it took was a trailer and a lot of horse manure to make her swoon. Forget diamonds – cowboys, take note!
Now, get this: Bella has been waking up at 2:30 in the morning (yes, the middle of the night) to whip up breakfast for Adan’s equestrian crew. She’s not just a supermodel; she’s a superhero… with a spatula. Adan gushed, saying, “She’s positive, she’s warm, and she’s out there helping with horses.” I bet the horses are wondering, “Did we just get Bella Hadid as our stable hand? Is this real life?”
The trailer life was fun and all, but Bella finally bought her own place in Texas. Adan’s working on building them a house too – you know, like a proper one. “It’s gonna take me a bit, but she bought something that was a good investment,” Adan said. Investment? Bella probably bought an entire ranch with a runway for the horses.
But here’s where things get sappy. Adan is head over spurs for Bella. “I can’t tell you how fortunate I am,” he gushed (again), adding that she’s the “sweetest, kindest, biggest-hearted person” he’s ever met. He even said her external beauty doesn’t hold a candle to her inner awesomeness. Translation: Bella’s not just a pretty face, y’all – she’s the full package, including early morning pancakes.
Adan also mentioned that Bella “deserves the best,” which is why he’s trying to get his life together. He’s basically saying, “I better step up my game because this woman is way out of my league.” Honestly, he might’ve just realized that cowboys don’t typically date supermodels. “I’m so screwed,” he joked.
Oh, and how did they meet, you ask? At a horse show, naturally. They bonded over their love for horses, and as Adan put it, “She puts up with me, she loves me, and I’m head over heels for her.” Adan, my guy, you are living every cowboy’s dream.
Bella Hadid – from runways to rodeos, proving that love conquers all… even 5th-wheel trailers.
