Adan Banuelos has recently become a name on many lips, not just for his remarkable skills in the world of cutting horses but also as the boyfriend of supermodel Bella Hadid. Born on April 8, 1989, Banuelos has deep roots in the equestrian community, having started his passion for riding at just four years old. His family, a large Mexican-American mixed-race household, supported his dreams, encouraging him to pursue a career as a rider and trainer.
Banuelos is renowned for his expertise in training both cutting horses and riders, operating a facility in Weatherford, Texas, known as Adan Banuelos Performance Horses. His dedication to the sport was recognized when he was inducted into the National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) Riders Hall of Fame in 2017 at the young age of 28, a testament to his exceptional talent and commitment.
The intersection of Banuelos’ personal and professional life gained public attention when he met Bella Hadid at a horse show. Hadid, who has embraced the equestrian lifestyle over the past few years, shared in an interview that their first encounter was quite serendipitous, taking place as she was getting fitted for a cowboy hat in Texas. Interestingly, Banuelos was not aware of Hadid’s celebrity status at that time, which Hadid described as a refreshing change.
As the couple navigates their relationship, Hadid has expressed her fondness for the cowboy lifestyle and her aspirations for the future, hinting at family plans. This glimpse into their lives not only showcases the unique blend of two worlds—fashion and equestrian sports—but also highlights the sense of authenticity that Banuelos brings to Hadid’s life.
With his impressive career and a budding relationship with one of the fashion industry’s biggest names, Adan Banuelos is certainly a figure to watch in both the cutting horse arena and beyond.
