Becky G Opens Up About Relationship with Sebastian Lletget Following Cheating Scandal
During a recent appearance on Call Her Daddy, singer Becky G provided rare insight into her relationship with former fiancé and current partner Sebastian Lletget. The candid interview addressed the infidelity scandal that rocked their relationship and confirmed that the couple remains together despite significant challenges.
"It was so hard to shut out the noise and the 'insiders say she didn't even say anything. They just swept it under the rug and kept it moving.' Like, no. I called off my engagement. I took off my ring," Becky G told host Alex Cooper. "There are things here that took place behind closed doors privately between me and this person who I love and care for deeply, who I've been betrayed by."
Timeline of Events
The relationship faced public scrutiny in March 2023 when Lletget, an Argentine-American professional soccer player, issued a public apology to Becky G following online rumors regarding his alleged infidelity. The couple had been together for seven years at that time and had been engaged for several months.
By November 2023, the pair were photographed together in public appearances, though notably, Becky G was no longer wearing her engagement ring. This marked their first public outings following the scandal and subsequent relationship hiatus.
Navigating Public and Private Heartbreak
The performer emphasized the complexity of managing both personal pain and public scrutiny simultaneously. "There's a private heartbreak that's taking place and then there's a public heartbreak that's taking place and both are extremely painful," she explained during the interview. "But what was I think the hardest part for me to navigate through was giving myself that space and grace to make that decision for myself."
Public Response and Criticism
The couple's reconciliation drew criticism from some fans and observers online. Addressing this backlash, Becky G maintained her stance on personal autonomy: "People who don't know me should not have a say in what I do with my life."
This Call Her Daddy interview represents the most extensive discussion Becky G has provided about the relationship since the scandal emerged. Previously, she touched on the situation in her December documentary Rebbeca, which explored themes of identity and healing while leaving questions about her romantic relationship deliberately unresolved.
Speaking with Rolling Stone about the documentary's objectives, Becky G explained: "It's about identity, healing, forgiveness, and honoring the people and places that made me."
