Joe Jonas, 36, was photographed at Miami International Airport kissing girlfriend Tatiana Gabriela, 30, a model originally from Puerto Rico. TMZ reportes he picked her up in his vintage red BMW convertible. The two have been dating since the summer, according to UsWeekly.

• Jonas’ Instagram showed him on a boat, playing padel and eating croissants at Caracas Bakery in MiMo. “I’m inspired in Miami, that’s why I’ve stayed here,” he told Mr. Eats 305 George Arango last year. “It’s a city that’s undefeated and growing.”
