Bella Hadid appears to have embarked on a new romantic chapter, reportedly moving on from her previous relationship with professional horseman Adan Banuelos. The model was recently spotted with Nathan Lacy, a fifth-generation cowboy from Crested Butte, Colorado, during the Colorado Avalanche’s annual Hockey Fights Cancer Night on November 7. This public appearance has sparked interest in Lacy, who is not only connected to Hadid through mutual friends but also shares her passion for equestrian pursuits.
Who is Nathan Lacy?
Nathan Lacy balances his life as an estimator and project manager at his family’s construction company with his deep-rooted cowboy heritage. His background as a cowboy aligns with Hadid’s interests, particularly in the cutting horse world, a sport they both seem to cherish. Lacy’s familial ties to the equestrian community may have facilitated their introduction, as he is the brother of Hadid’s friend, Rachael Lacy.
Timeline of Hadid’s Relationships
Reports suggest that Hadid was single as recently as July, following her split from Banuelos, which allegedly occurred in early 2026 after a two-year relationship. Hadid has previously expressed her admiration for cowboys, recalling a serendipitous meeting with Banuelos that left a lasting impression. This pattern of attraction to equestrian men seems to continue with Lacy, reinforcing her established preferences.
Public Appearances and Speculation
While Hadid has not publicly commented on her relationship with Lacy, their recent outing at a hockey game has led to speculation about the nature of their connection. The sighting, characterized by affectionate gestures, suggests that they may be entering a more serious phase of their relationship, especially as the season for romantic engagements approaches.
Future Developments
As Hadid settles into her new home in Colorado, the dynamics of her personal life are likely to evolve. The intersection of her professional commitments and personal interests in the equestrian world may provide fertile ground for her relationship with Lacy to flourish. Observers will undoubtedly be keen to see how this romance develops in the coming months.
