The singers Aitana and Sebastián Yatra no longer hide from the paparazzi

After weeks of speculation, stolen of night dates and trips around the world, the singers Aitana Ocaña (Sant Climent de Llobregat, Barcelona, ​​23 years old) and Sebastián Yatra (Medellín, Colombia, 28 years old) are increasingly publicly accomplices and it seems that they no longer care being chased by paparazzi hunt of a photo that confirms that they are a couple. This is demonstrated by the photos published this Wednesday, March 15, by the magazine Hello! Although it is an open secret, none of the protagonists have yet confirmed the relationship, but with the images that are published today (preceded by the snapshots of the last few weeks that always placed them together somewhere in the world; London, Los Angeles, Miami, Madrid…) there is little room for doubt. What began as a friendship exactly five years ago has ended up becoming one of the most persecuted couples on the international music scene today.

The last time they were seen together was at the wedding of the artists Lele Pons and Guaynaa, held in Miami (USA) on Saturday, March 4. Although at first they did not publish anything on their social networks, the images and videos shared by those present quickly spread through the network, recording their presence in the ostentatious link. Just four days ago It was Aitana who published several photos in the company of Yatra and other colleagues at the celebration.

This Wednesday has been Hello! the magazine that has published new photographs of the couple. In them they are seen enjoying a day at sea on a yacht in the city of the state of Florida: hugs, connection, walks… and the long-awaited kiss. Although the magazine does not collect the exact moment, one of the sequences makes it clear that what is between the two of them is more than just a friendship. Upon her return from Miami, the singer was received at the Madrid airport by the microphones of Europe Press, although he avoided answering the obvious questions of the media about their relationship: “In life I am always very happy, of course. I am very grateful for everything that is happening to me.”

The complicity between them is evident since they met during Aitana’s passage through Operation Triumph 2017 —a contest that launched her to popularity. It was during Yatra’s performance in the semifinal of the television contest when the Colombian singer approached a very young Aitana to sing for her. Sutra, the topic he was presenting that night. From then on, a friendship began that has now spanned five years.

After leaving the Academy of Operation Triumph 2017, Aitana —who entered the contest with a partner— began a relationship with her editing partner Luis Cepeda. Since the official confirmation of that long-awaited relationship by the followers of the program at the end of that June, the couple lived through very intense months in which they had to fight against media harassment. The romance barely lasted until October of that year, when he announced his breakup via social media. Not long after, the singer and now also an actress began a relationship with the interpreter Miguel Bernardeau. Aitana and Bernardeau were together for four years, during which time they have shared a house, traveled and even film sets. Until the end of last year. days after the release of The lasta series that brought them together on the small screen, the magazine readings exclusively announced the news of their breakup in mid-December 2022. The protagonists of the story never spoke or confirmed the separation, but 24 hours after going public, Aitana was blunt in the face of insistent questions from journalists at an event: “You already know perfectly well that I never talk about my personal life and today is not going to be different. I never say those things and I’m not going to say them now.” A few words that she accompanied by a request to the press: to stop harassing her at the doors of her house.

Since the beginning of the friendship between the Catalan and the Colombian, they have been related both personally and professionally. In 2020, the artists released their first collaboration: lifeless heart, which became the first preview of Aitana’s second album. At that time, Yatra was having an affair with the Argentine singer Tini Stoessel and she was celebrating her second anniversary with Miguel Bernardeau. Her professional relationship did not end there. At the beginning of 2022 they launched The doubtsa song that later formed part of the Yatra album Dharma. Their complicity has also been seen in The voicehe talent show in which they served as coaches in the edition issued in 2022 and of which they will also be part in the new installment that still does not have a release date.

But after the break with Bernardeau, the rumors returned to star in the public conversation. The couple welcomed 2023 together to his group of friends in London, from where they shared images of their getaway. Until then, Yatra had denied the rumors and claimed that they were just “great friends”. A few weeks later, they traveled to Los Angeles (California), where they were seen to be very affectionate, complicit, and smiling… The artists walked their love through the streets of Los Angeles, at a Harry Styles concert, enjoyed fun moments in the airport and even brought out their most childish side in the Disney theme park.

And although during that trip they did not share images together, for many the clues —such as a leather jacket of his that she used during her walks— left no room for doubt. In recent weeks they have become inseparable, so much so that they also attended the Grammy Awards gala after party together, held on February 5 in Los Angeles. Although Aitana did not attend the awards ceremony, she did not miss the after party where they were seen together and were even photographed together with the Universal team.

It remains to be seen if either of the two singers ends up confirming their relationship to one of the paparazzi who always follow them, or if they are going to do it through their social networks or posing together on a red carpet. Or, well, if they never get to pronounce themselves on the matter and they are going to live their courtship without giving explanations about it.
