Dua Lipa & Callum Turner: Inside Their Whirlwind Romance and Confirmed Engagement
From red-carpet debuts to a sparkling engagement, Dua Lipa and Callum Turner’s love story has captivated fans—and now, the couple has officially confirmed they’re tying the knot. Here’s everything we know about their relationship timeline, past romances, and the romantic proposal.
How It All Began: Their Relationship Timeline
The “Illusion” hitmaker and the Masters of the Air star first sparked dating rumors in January 2024 after getting cozy at a Los Angeles after-party for his Apple TV+ series. Days later, paparazzi snapped them locked in an embrace during a low-key Santa Monica date—cementing their status as Hollywood’s newest “it” couple.
Their romance quickly escalated from private to public, with the pair making their first official joint appearance at a Grammys after-party in February 2024. Over a year later, they solidified their power-couple status by walking the 2025 Met Gala together, where Dua stunned in a silver headpiece while Callum looked dapper in classic black-tie attire.
Dua’s Dating History: From Hadid to Turner
Before finding love with Callum, Dua’s most serious relationship was with model Anwar Hadid (younger brother of Gigi and Bella Hadid). The pair dated from 2019 to 2021, with sources citing busy schedules and differing priorities as reasons for their split. Since then, the pop star has kept her love life relatively private—until Callum came into the picture.
The Engagement: Rumors, Hints, and Finally—Confirmation
Whispers of an engagement began circulating in December 2024 when The U.S. Sun reported the couple had secretly gotten engaged. While neither confirmed it outright, fans went wild after Dua posted a cryptic Instagram Story featuring what appeared to be a diamond ring. An insider gushed: “They’re so in love and know this is forever. It’s been an amazing Christmas for them.”
The speculation finally ended in June 2025 when Dua confirmed the news in a British Vogue interview, saying:
“Yeah, we’re engaged. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just… be best friends forever—it’s a really special feeling.”
With Dua’s Radical Optimism era in full swing and Callum’s star rising, 2025 has undoubtedly been their biggest year yet—both personally and professionally. As fans eagerly await wedding details, one thing’s clear: This duo is in it for the long haul.
