Bad Bunny's First Love: A Tale of Music and Missed Chances
9 Feb
Summary
- Bad Bunny's first love was Carliz De La Cruz Hernández, a university classmate.
- They met at the University of Puerto Rico and worked together at a grocery store.
- A proposal in 2016 was followed by a breakup due to his rising music career.

Before achieving global stardom, Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, shared a significant early romance with Carliz De La Cruz Hernández. The two met as classmates at the University of Puerto Rico's Bayamón campus. Their relationship began during mundane shifts working together at a grocery store in Arecibo, fostering a genuine young love.
In January 2016, as his music began gaining traction on SoundCloud, Bad Bunny proposed to Carliz. However, his path soon diverged with a record deal from Rimas Entertainment, leading to their separation in May 2016. A subsequent reunion in 2017 proved fleeting, as his rapidly expanding career, marked by sold-out shows and collaborations, ultimately created an insurmountable distance.
