Pop sensation Dua Lipa has officially confirmed her engagement to actor Callum Turner, sending shockwaves through the entertainment industry.
The "Levitating" singer, whose career has been on an upward trajectory with chart-topping hits and a successful "Radical Optimism" tour, recently opened up about her future plans, revealing a surprising desire for marriage and children.
The confirmation came in a candid interview with British Vogue, where Lipa, 29, expressed her excitement, stating, "Yeah, we're engaged. It's very exciting."
She further elaborated on the profound feeling of committing to "grow old together, to see a life and just, I don't know, be best friends forever — it's a really special feeling."
This sentiment comes after months of speculation, with fans scrutinizing her social media for glimpses of a diamond ring, which Callum Turner reportedly custom-designed with input from Lipa's sister and best friends.
The ring itself has been a talking point, described as a unique departure from typical celebrity bling, featuring a substantial diamond set on a wide cigar band, estimated to be worth well into the six figures.
While the news of her engagement is met with celebratory cheers from many, some industry insiders and fans are questioning the timing and potential impact on her booming career.
Lipa herself acknowledged the challenge of balancing her demanding schedule with the prospect of motherhood. "I'd love to have kids one day," she shared, "But it's like the constant question of when would there ever be a good time — how it would fit in with my job and how it would work if I went on tour, and how much time out I'd have to take."
This shift in perspective is notable, as she previously expressed that nothing was "planned" in terms of children, famously joking that her album was her "baby."
The couple's relationship blossomed quickly since they were first publicly linked in January 2024, after being spotted slow dancing at an afterparty for Turner's "Masters of the Air" premiere.
Their romance became Instagram official in July 2024, and they made their red carpet debut at the 2025 Met Gala.
Despite their busy schedules – Lipa's ongoing world tour and Turner's various filming projects, including his upcoming drama "Rosebush Pruning" – they have made a pact not to be apart for more than two and a half weeks.
With wedding plans currently on hold as they prioritize their professional commitments, the question remains: Can a global pop superstar truly have it all – a thriving career and a traditional family life – without one significantly impacting the other? Or will Dua Lipa's pivot towards domesticity inevitably lead to a slowdown in her musical output, disappointing millions of fans worldwide?
