Dua Lipa and Callum Turner’s Love Story
Turns out, Dua Lipa really did make time for love.
Despite a jam-packed schedule and a self-professed laser focus on her music career, the pop star found something special with Fantastic Beasts actor Callum Turner—and now, they’re engaged!
Here’s a look back at how it all unfolded, from quiet dinner dates to Instagram clues and, finally, that sparkling confirmation.
It all started quietly...
Right after her split from French filmmaker Romain Gavras in late 2023, Dua was spotted with someone new. By January 2024, the internet was buzzing thanks to a few grainy after-party photos from the Masters of the Air premiere, where she and Turner looked very cosy. A source told Page Six, “It’s new, but they’re mad about each other.” 👀
And honestly? That energy showed.
PDA, Red Carpets & Instagram soft launches
As 2024 rolled on, the couple started stepping out more. From hand-holding at Sushi Park to date nights in New York and even walking (separately, but still!) at the BAFTAs, it was clear something was going on.
The big moment came in July when Callum officially landed on Dua’s Instagram grid—not once, but twice in the same post. That’s basically a love declaration in 2024, right?
The engagement rumours begin…
Fast forward to Christmas 2024, and fans started freaking out. Dua posted a festive photo dump... with what looked suspiciously like a diamond ring on that finger. The caption was casual, the vibes were strong, and the finger? Strategically half-hidden. Cue chaos in the comments.
A few days later, The Sun reported the couple was engaged, quoting a source who said they were “over the moon” and “couldn’t be happier.” But still—no official word from Dua or Callum.
It's official: 💍
And then, she finally said the words fans had been waiting for. In a British Vogue interview, Dua confirmed it: “Yeah, we’re engaged. It’s very exciting.” No cryptic posts this time—just pure joy and a ring she’s totally obsessed with.
She shared that Callum had the ring custom-made with help from her sister and close friends—and yes, she’s “obsessed” with it. “It’s so me,” she said, and honestly, that’s the dream, right?
As for the wedding? “We’re just enjoying this period,” she added. Between tour dates and filming schedules, they’re not in a rush.
Looking ahead: kids, careers & real talk
Dua also opened up about family plans, saying she’d love to have kids someday—but admitted it’s a tough thing to plan when you’re constantly on the move.
“There’s so much more to raising a child than just loving children,” she said. “It’ll happen when it happens.”
A modern love story
From anonymous tips to red carpet sightings and an engagement reveal that felt both glamorous and grounded, Dua and Callum’s love story is very now—private when it needs to be, public when it counts.
And judging by the way she talks about him, this isn’t just a fling. It’s the kind of partnership built on best-friend energy, shared goals, and yes—super cute photo dumps.
Here's to the happy couple.
