Dua Lipa Celebrates New Beau Romain Gavras' Birthday on Instagram

It looks like Dua Lipa has found a new "sugar boo" in French director and filmmaker Romain Gavras. The Grammy winner isn't the first music superstar that her 41-year-old beau has been romantically involved with — Romain previously dated Rita Ora for about six months before they split in 2021. Dua dated model Anwar Hadid for nearly two years before they went their separate ways in 2021. Since then, she's been rumored to be romantically linked with Trevor Noah and Jack Harlow (who wrote an entire song about her, BTW).

Dua and Romain were first spotted together in February 2023, but they seemingly confirmed their romance as they walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival a few months later in May. The "Love Again" singer even made it Instagram official with an arrangement of photos — including one with her new man. If you're wondering how these creatives met each other and how their romance flourished, here's everything we know about Dua Lipa and Romain Gavras' relationship timeline.
