Supermodel Bella Hadid is steering clear of romantic ties and setting the record straight regarding her love life. Despite recent viral online speculation linking the 29-year-old fashion icon to a new western beau, official sources confirm that the Bella Hadid single mystery cowboy narrative is purely platonic. The runway star is flying solo and spending valuable quality time surrounded by close family and friends in Colorado following her high-profile breakup from equestrian champion Adan Banuelos.
Speculation ran wild across entertainment blogs after Hadid was spotted hanging out in Crested Butte, Colorado, alongside a handsome companion wearing western attire. Media outlets quickly labeled the individual as her newest “mystery cowboy beau,” sparking rumors that the model was jumping back into the dating pool.
However, sources close to the star confirmed to TMZ that the man in question is Nathan Lacy, a local project manager who happens to be the brother of one of Hadid’s close friends, artist Rachael Lacy. The source emphasized that Hadid and Lacy are strictly good friends, clarifying that she is simply enjoying some well-deserved downtime with her inner circle rather than pursuing a new relationship.
The dating rumors gained traction largely due to Hadid’s recent romantic history and her well-documented love for western culture. The model previously spent over two years dating professional cutting horse trainer Adan Banuelos, during which she fully embraced ranch life and equestrian sports in Texas.
Following their split earlier this year, insiders reveal that Hadid took time to heal from the emotional toll of the breakup. While her appreciation for the outdoor, western lifestyle remains stronger than ever, the supermodel is firmly focused on her health, peace of mind, and independent journey rather than rushing into another serious romance.
