Bella Hadid has embraced a new lifestyle. The supermodel and actress has relocated to Texas, where she's realigned herself with one of her childhood passions: horseback riding. Ever since she began dating cowboy Adam Banuelos. Hadid has joyfully embraced her cowgirl side.
Over the weekend, Hadid participated in a Horse Cutting Championship show in Las Vegas, where she was accompanied and supported by her boyfriend.
Hadid was photographed atop a brown horse, wearing a black and white flannel paired with jeans and brown chaps. She rounded out the look with a white cowboy hat and a brown belt with a thick silver buckle.
Photographers captured Hadid's impressive horseback riding skills.
Later on, photographers captured Hadid as she left the venue, where she accessorized the look with a brown sweater.
Hadid was supported by Banuelos, who was also at the show and held her hand as the two rode out of the ring together.
Banuelos and Hadid were first linked together in 2023, prompting Hadid to revisit her horseback riding training. Since she's participated in various competitions and has taken a backseat from her career as a model, appearing only in the professional engagements she prioritizes the most.
"For the first time now, I'm not putting on a fake face. If I don't feel good, I won't go. If I don't feel good, I take time for myself," said Hadid in an interview with Allure. "And I've never had the opportunity to do that or say that before."
Some of Hadid's horseback riding achievements
Over the past couple of years, Hadid has made some amazing progress in the horseback riding world. In 2024, she was named the National Cutting Horse Association’s (NCHA) Rookie of the Year.
Banuelos celebrated the moment with an Instagram post, writing, "First year out, Futurity Limited Am Reserve Champ Amateur Rookie Of The Year."
