A Timeline of Christian Nodal & Angela Aguilar’s Relationship (2024)

• Jan. 2018: Touring Together

  

  Pepe Aguilar and his children, Ángela and Leonardo, presented their “Jaripeo Sin Fronteras” tour dates in a press conference held on Jan. 10, 2018, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. They also revealed that they will be hitting the road with a then-newcomer Christian Nodal, who was also present at the media event.

• Jan. 2018: "El Show de El Piolin"

  While promoting the tour, Ángela, Leonardo, and Nodal visited popular radio show “El Show de El Piolin,” where they played games, had an impromptu performance with mariachi, and even joked around about their respective dating lives. Nodal said he had a young son; and Aguilar said her only companion was her dog. Watch part of their time on the show above.

• July 2019: Premios Juventud

  Nodal and Aguilar formed part of the 2019 Premios Juventud, where they were not only nominated in the same awards category, “Agave de la Música Regional Mexicana,” but they also performed alongside Pipe Bueno. The trio combined their power vocals to sing classics such as “Volver, Volver,” “Sombras Nada Mas,” and “Cielito Lindo.”

• Nov. 2019: The GRAMMY Museum

  

  In the fall of that same year, Nodal and Aguilar were the artists invited for the Latin Music Gallery ribbon-cutting at the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles. They were joined by the president of the Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences, Gabriel Abaroa; president of The GRAMMY Museum, Michael Sticka; and renowned journalist Giselle Fernandez, among others.

• Nov. 2020: The First Collaboration

  In the midst of the global pandemic, Nodal and Aguilar unleashed their first-ever collaborative effort, “Dime Cómo Quieres.” The fresh and flirty ranchera, penned by Nodal and Edgar Barrera, finds Nodal head over heels for Aguilar — who, in return, isn’t impressed by his kind gestures. After all, she’s not the type of girl who easily falls for a guy, she sings. While the two are seen together in the playful music video, they each recorded their own part separately using a green screen.

  “I couldn’t stop laughing while recording my part,” Aguilar previously told Billboard. “When you record a duet well you have that human interaction and a lot of your facial expressions are a reaction to what the other person is doing. But here, I was singing to a green screen and a guy from our production team who pretended to be Nodal.”

  “Dime Cómo Quieres” reached No. 1 on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart in Jan. 2021, making a then-17-year-old Aguilar the youngest female act on a lead role to achieve the feat. She concurrently earned her first No. 1 on any Latin airplay chart while Nodal captured his 10th on Latin Airplay.

• Feb. 2022: Premio Lo Nuestro

  

  The pair later reunited at the 2022 Premio Lo Nuestro awards, where they performed a heartfelt tribute to the late Vicente Fernandez. They shared center stage at the FTX Arena with Regional Mexican and pop acts including Eduin Caz (of Grupo Firme), Camilo, David Bisbal and AB Luna.

• May 2023: "Dime Cómo Quieras" Live

  

  Three years after dropping their ranchera hit, Águilar and Nodal performed it live for the first time during one of Nodal’s sold-out concerts at the Foro Sol in Mexico City, where more than 60,000 observed their on-stage chemistry.

• May 2024: Rumors Begin

  

  On May 23, Nodal publicly announced his break up from Cazzu, whom he dated for almost two years and had his first baby with. That same month, rumors began circulating on social media that he had an affair with Águilar. In the midst of the controversy, Águilar was the surprise guest at Nodal’s “Pa’l Cora Tour” stop in Monterrey, just two days after the split.

A couple of hours later, Nodal headed to his Instagram account to come clean about all the rumors. “Now I find myself living a precious experience with a woman I love, with a love that took so many years for what is happening to happen and we are enjoying it, we are living the experience,” he said about his new romance with Aguilar.

  Following the couple’s official declarations, Nodal and Águilar kissed publicly for the first time during Nodal’s concert at the Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City. Aguilar was his surprise guest, and together they performed Pepe Aguilar’s “Por Mujeres Como Tu,” followed by their collaboration “DIme Como Quieres.” In the middle of the song, Aguilar proudly shouted “you’re my boyfriend!” and they finished off the performance with a big kiss on the lips.

• June 2024: Cazzu Speaks Out

  

  Amid the trending news, Cazzu — mother of Nodal’s infant daughter Inti — broke her silence and posted a statement online.

  “I feel the need to let you know that I AM OK, going through it in the best way possible,” she said in part on her Instagram Stories. “I choose to step away from social media for a while to detox and focus on my baby, who is my priority, and on my work while everything calms down out there. Life is not totally beautiful or totally horrible, nor are people completely 100% good or bad, there are always grays and shades but the important thing is to breathe and resist with love the necessary processes and learn. Thank you for the concern of so many. Now let’s turn the page, let’s live and let live.”
