Kendall Jenner facing 'unwanted pressure' as Bad Bunny 'romance' heats up
Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny have sent the rumour mill into overdrive after they were seen cosying up on a number of dates, but a relationship expert has issued a stark warning.
The 27-year-old model was seen dancing with Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, at a Drake concert over the weekend. The pair were filmed hugging and slow dancing as Drake performed on stage.
In a clip shared on social media, Bad Bunny was seen wrapping his arms around Kendall's waist. As they left the Los Angeles show together, they were smiling and walking hand-in-hand.
Kendall is notoriously private about her love life. Dating expert Louella Alderson has suggested she may feel a lot of pressure from the public as her "romance" with Bad Bunny seemingly heats up.
Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, she said: "Being in the public eye can add a great deal of pressure when celebrities start dating, and Kendall Jenner is no stranger to this. On top of trying to navigate a normal relationship, there's also the added pressure of having fans and the media have an opinion on the couple and their relationship.

Indeed, Kendall has been the victim of online trolling by Bad Bunny fans who are unhappy with their relationship. Louella said: "Although it can be difficult to brush off this type of criticism, celebrities must remember that their relationships are their own and should only concern them and their partners."
However, it's not just pressure from the public that Kendall will feel. The reality star has previously been pressed by her momager Kris Jenner to think about having children and freeze her eggs.
Louella, co-founder of the So Syncd dating app, told The Mirror: "Kendall has the additional pressure of her four famous sisters all having children. Therefore, having a relationship in the public eye will see her subject to comparison and questions about when she's going to have kids or get married.
"Not only is this pressure unwanted for Kendall but it can take away from the fun of getting to know someone new and keeping things casual. This pressure has even come from Kris Jenner who has previously said she'd like to see Kendall get married."
Speaking about the pair's decision to remain private, Louella said: "With Kendall and Bad Bunny's relationship being relatively new, it's understandable that they would want to keep their romance out of the public eye. They can get to know each other and gauge how serious their feelings are without any judgement from outsiders.
"This allows them to enjoy the early stages of a relationship in peace and privacy, which isn't a luxury they have in many parts of their everyday lives. Ultimately, keeping relationships private is a decision Kendall and Bad Bunny have both made for their own well-being, and it's understandable why they would want to take this path in order to avoid unnecessary pressures."
