It's been half a year since Dua Lipa, 29, sparked engagement speculation after flashing a chunky ring over Christmas— and it's finally official.
The Levitating hitmaker revealed that she is engaged to her boyfriend Callum Turner after he proposed with a very special ring.
An Instagram photo dump first sparked rumours as a sparkling diamond could be seen on that finger, but Dua stayed silent.
Months after teasing fans, she confirmed in an interview with British Vogue that she and Callum, 35, are set to tie the knot.
'Yeah, we're engaged,' last year's Glastonbury headliner cooly shared. 'It's very exciting. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don't know, be best friends forever – it's a really special feeling.'
Dua revealed that Callum popped the question with a custom-made ring, which he had consulted with her sister Rina over.
'I'm obsessed with it,' she continued. 'It's so me. It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well.'
The happy couple began dating in January 2024 and made their relationship Instagram official in July.
Dua was first spotted out with the Fantastic Beasts actor in March, with the pair grabbing a spot of dinner on date night in London.
The Houdini icon had seen him before they began dating, having bumped into each other at The River Cafe and been introduced by the co-founder and Table 4 podcast host Ruth Rogers.
At this point, Callum was simply 'that really hot guy' from the cafe, but a year later, their paths crossed once more, and she took the plunge.
Book fanatic Dua bonded with the actor over the fact they were both reading the same novel — a real compatibility test.
Despite this meet-cute, the duo are not rushing down the aisle as between Callum's film shoots and Dua's tour there is little time to plan.
'We're just enjoying this period,' she explained. 'I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding, or dreamt about what kind of bride I would be. All of a sudden I'm like: 'Oh, what would I wear?''
We're sure whatever Dua chooses to wear will be a show-stopper.
When the rumours of their engagement began last year, a source told The Sun: 'They are engaged and couldn't be happier.
'Dua has had one of the best years of her career professionally, and this is the cherry on the cake. Callum is such a solid support for Dua, and they make a wonderful couple.'
Last year was certainly a big one for the Future Nostalgia icon as she headlined Glastonbury alongside Coldplay and Sza.
Her set was praised by festival goers, filled with big hits, dance numbers, and a guest appearance from Tame Impala. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C82YyW5sikI/
However, it wasn't just on stage she was making an impact as Dua went viral for an interaction with a man who sang to her backstage. More Trending
Dua was enjoying some downtime wandering around the 15000-acre site when a fan armed with a ukulele stopped her.
The Camden busker introduced himself, and said: 'I want to play you 30 seconds of my song and if you like it, I just want your reaction.'
Glancing at the camera, Dua agreed with the busker launching into exactly 30 seconds of his ukulele song before she cut him off and said, 'Well done mate. So good, so good.'
As she attempted to escape, the guy asked for a hug — which Dua politely obliged before high-tailing it out of there and making a beeline for Callum.
