Rumors of Kaitlan Collins' Romance After the Grammys

Kaitlan Collins apparently used the Grammy weekend in Los Angeles to introduce a possible new romance, as reported by media. The 33-year-old CNN host happily posed on the red carpet at the Clive Davis pre-Grammy party on January 31 with photographer Emilio Madrid, hugging him.

Collins noted how incredible the weather was in Los Angeles and posted a series of photos on February 2, including a shot of her with portrait photographer Madrid at the Davis party. In another photo, the pair were dressed to the nines for the Grammy ceremony the next day. Collins looked stunning in a deep neckline and shiny purple dress, with Madrid embracing her from behind. They posed on the roof of their hotel in the sunset light. «75 degrees Fahrenheit, and Bad Bunny is there? I»m in. Thank you to the Grammy organizers for an incredible evening,« Collins captioned the post, tagging her possible new beau.

Madrid was not shy about showcasing Collins in his social media stories that weekend. The couple posed with financial blogger Haley Sacks for a selfie at the Davis party, and the group also attended Grammy after-parties. A photo of the Grammys entrance at the Crypto.com Arena was captioned «Uninvited guests of the music business,» with Collins tagged. He also shared a photo sitting in the audience with CNN«s chief White House correspondent and CAA agent Ben Levine. According to another photo, Madrid and Collins ended the night in a hotel room with friends and plenty of delivery food around 1:22 a.m., after visiting the after-parties.

Fans were thrilled by how stunning Collins looked in two evening gowns, but it seems no one paid attention to her mysterious man. «Absolutely stunning! The black dress... wow! Beautiful, Kaitlan!» one follower gushed in the comments on her social media post, and another chimed in: «An elegant journalist and yet very attractive? You»re just perfect, girl!« Alyssa Farah Griffin from The View told Collins she looked »gorgeous,« and a fourth fan wrote that she was »Absolute perfection.« However, a fifth user complained about Collins» fake tan, comparing it to Donald Trump«s tan. »You«ve been spending too much time with him. You»ve turned orange,« the follower quipped.

Collins has not been publicly linked to an official boyfriend for several years. The last man the TV host was publicly seen with was Texas businessman and pharmacist Will Douglas from 2015 to 2017. They broke up by the time Douglas ran as a Republican for the Texas House of Representatives in 2019, although he was defeated by incumbent Democrat Rhetta Andrews Bowers in the 2020 state elections. Collins is very private about her personal life, so her loving look on the red carpet with Madrid and their joint social media posts have sparked suspicions of a romance.
