A former coach of Aparicio\u2019s told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sgvtribune.com\/2026\/02\/09\/covina-high-alumna-says-i-do-in-front-of-millions-during-bad-bunny-super-bowl-halftime-show\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">San Gabriel Valley Tribune<\/a> that she represented the school\u2019s basketball team for at least three seasons.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Wolter celebrated his first anniversary of dating Aparicio in a 23 February 2024 carousel of photos online, captioning it in part: \u201cYou have made this \u2026 the best year of my life without a doubt. I can\u2019t wait for what we have in store for our future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">What was in store was an October 2024 marriage proposal in Cannon Beach, Oregon. \u201cIf I could say yes a million times more, I would,\u201d Aparicio wrote on social media after accepting, as the Tribune noted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Bad Bunny was among the guests that the couple subsequently invited to their wedding. But the six-time Grammy winner instead invited them to partake in his Super Bowl half-time show, which served as an extravagant 13-minute tribute to the Puerto Rican superstar\u2019s homeland.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">About five minutes into the show, a smiling wedding officiant could be seen declaring Wolter and Aparicio married in a small plaza built on the field for the performance. The couple kissed with dancers and musicians surrounding them, then they parted to reveal Lady Gaga and Los Sobrinos, the Puerto Rican salsa band who has collaborated with Bad Bunny.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The artists played Gaga\u2019s Die With a Smile until Bad Bunny came to belt out his hit Baile Inolvidable, whose title in Spanish means Unforgettable Dance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">A representative of Bad Bunny confirmed after the show that the couple\u2019s wedding was authentic but stopped short of naming the bride and groom. Bad Bunny had served as an official witness to the nuptials while signing their marriage certificate as well; and there was even a real wedding cake, the representative added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Aparicio later shared a clip on social media of her wedding, which was seen by an estimated audience of about 128 million television viewers. \u201cMy heart is so full,\u201d she wrote. \u201cThis experience has been nothing short of amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Wolter wrote on social media, \u201cAn unforgettable dance with the love of my life. Cannot thank [Bad Bunny] enough for this beautiful opportunity of a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The Associated Press contributed reporting<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"They celebrated their one-year anniversary as a couple in February 2024.
