Bad Bunny and Gabriela Berlingeri Spotted Dining in Buenos Aires Ahead of Valentine’s Day
Images of Bad Bunny and his former partner Gabriela Berlingeri arriving separately in Buenos Aires and later dining together have reignited speculation about their relationship. The pair were observed in the Recoleta neighborhood in the hours leading up to Valentine’s Day, concealed by tight security and a discreet restaurant setting.
Captured leaving a hotel before Valentine’s Day
On Feb. 12, 2026 (ET), photos circulated showing the two emerging from separate locations and moving toward the historic Pasaje Suizo in Recoleta. The scenes portray a heavily managed arrival: the artist kept his face covered beneath a cap and jacket, while a security detail shepherded him through waiting fans. Berlingeri was seen on foot in the same area, suggesting the meeting was planned rather than spontaneous.
Private dinner at an exclusive Recoleta address
The evening culminated in a private dinner at Aramburu, the Buenos Aires restaurant known for its refined tasting menus and intimate service. Diners in the room reportedly noticed a close exchange with the kitchen team, and the chef personally acknowledged the table. Descriptions of the food note inventive combinations using Argentine ingredients; one standout dish mentioned was a brioche-laminated preparation featuring wagyu tartare, yuzu vinegar, wasabi and caviar. Wine pairings described as premium accompanied the tasting.
Different accounts on menu length and timing
Accounts vary on the exact length of the tasting menu for the evening, with descriptions ranging from a dozen courses to an extended 18-step experience. Whatever the number of courses, the meal was framed as a multi-hour, high-end culinary event in an environment that prioritized privacy. Observers also describe a careful exit for the party, with multiple armored vehicles and a visible security contingent ensuring a swift departure.
Context: post–Super Bowl spotlight and River Plate run
The meeting takes place amid a busy stretch for the performer. Fresh from high-profile performances in the United States, the artist arrived in Buenos Aires to headline several shows at River Plate. The timing — mere days before Valentine’s Day — has amplified attention, turning a private dinner into a public moment that intersects with both entertainment and personal life narratives.
Reaction, history and what comes next
The sighting has reignited conversations about the pair’s history and whether the dinner signals a reconciliation. They first met in 2017, went public in 2020 during the pandemic, and parted ways in 2022. Fans and commentators are interpreting the dinner in different ways: some view it as a private reconnection between longtime companions, others as a friendly catch-up amid demanding professional schedules.
For now, neither party has released a personal statement addressing the meeting. The sightings and the exclusive dinner will likely remain a talking point throughout the upcoming concerts in the city, with attention split between the artist’s performances and the renewed focus on his personal life.
