award, and the pair quickly became internet sensations cavorting in a series of affectionate routines. Their relationship appeared to be going strong as they jetted to various exotic locations, including Milan and Greece, posting their travel activities on the popular video app.
However, their relationship hit a rough patch after a TikTok video went viral that seemed to show Padilla sitting on another man's lap during a live stream. The videos also set off rumors of cheating, prompting Yamal to unfollow Padilla on Instagram. Padilla later explained that she was not sitting on anybody's lap, but rather, she was sitting on a stool.
Following the incident, Padilla experienced a significant drop in her social media following, losing over 100,000 followers on TikTok.
She also deactivated her Instagram account amid the backlash.
