Pop star Dua Lipa confirms engagement to British actor Callum Turner
The Grammy award-winning artist, known for her hit songs New Rules, One Kiss and Houdini, has reportedly been dating the actor since January 2024.
The 29-year old singer is currently performing around the world for her Radical Optimism tour, with upcoming performances at London's Wembley Stadium and Madison Square Garden in New York.

Fronting the July issue of British Vogue, she told the magazine: 'Yeah we're engaged. It's very exciting.
'(I) never really understood the weight of it. 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.'
Turner, 35, is best known for starring in the hit series Masters Of The Air alongside US actor Austin Butler, as well as playing Frank Churchill in 2020's Emma and Joe Rantz, the american rower, in The Boys In The Boat.
The singer added that she is 'obsessed' with the custom ring Turner had made for her and that the couple do not have plans for the wedding yet.
She said: 'I want to finish my tour, Callum's shooting, so we're just enjoying this period. I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding, or dreamed about what kind of bride I would be. All of a sudden, I'm like: 'Oh, what would I wear?''
'I'd love to have kids one day. 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.
'I think it's just one of those things that's going to happen when it happens. I love kids, but I think there's so much more to raising a child than just loving children.'

Months away from being 30, the singer added that she is the most confident she has ever felt.
She said: 'I turn 30 in August and I've been thinking about it a lot, because your 20s are just so tumultuous in the way you think about yourself and your body. And I don't know, now I feel like I've come to a place — I've become better at taking care of myself and working out and dancing.
'I feel the most confident I've ever felt. I feel very empowered and strong in my body. I feel good when I'm sharing my energy with people on stage.
'There's just so much of that that makes me really proud of my body and the way it holds me.'
The English-Albanian singer rose to fame with her 2016 hit Be The One followed by her 2017 break-up anthem, New Rules.
Since then she has won several Brit Awards and three Grammys and headlined Glastonbury Festival last year shortly after the release of her third studio album Radical Optimism which hit number one on the UK albums chart.
Her 2020 Future Nostalgia album also reached number one while her debut self-titled album, Dua Lipa, reached number three.
She is the youngest person to feature on this year's Sunday Times 40 Under 40 Rich List, making her one of the wealthiest musicians in the UK.
The singer was recently named the most played artist across radio, TV and public places in the UK for a second time by music licensing company Phonographic Performance Limited (PPL).

Dua Lipa has revealed she would 'love' to have children with her fiancé Callum Turner after announcing their engagement. The singer, 29, who turns 30 in August, publicly shared her excitement for the first time since the actor, 35, got down on one knee. The hitmaker posed for the front cover of British Vogue where she looked stunning in a pale pink bra that highlighted her jaw-dropping figure. In the interview, Dua disussed her family plans, saying she's concerned how having children will fit in with her career as a pop star. 'I'd love to have kids one day,' she said. '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. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I think it's just one of those things that's going to happen when it happens. I love kids, but I think there's so much more to raising a child than just loving children.' Confirming their engagement, Dua said: 'Yeah we're engaged. 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.' Late last year, news of their romantic proposal emerged and Dua has regularly been seen with a dazzling diamond ring on her finger. Speaking of their wedding plans, Dua said she hopes to finish her tour and Callum to wrap up filming before they tie the knot. While the wedding hasn't been at the forefront of her mind amid her busy schedule touring, she did admit she has started to think about her dress. She said: 'I want to finish my tour, Callum's shooting, so we're just enjoying this period. '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?"' Speaking of their wedding plans, Dua said she hopes to finish her tour and Callum to wrap up filming before they tie the knot Dua said she's 'obsessed' with her engagement ring, before insisting 'It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well.' Dua and Callum were first linked in January 2024 and reportedly got engaged over Christmas in 2024. 'I think it's just one of those things that's going to happen when it happens. I love kids, but I think there's so much more to raising a child than just loving children.' Dua and Callum had 'many Sliding Doors moments', where they were in the same place at the same time without realising, before being introduced to one another at the River Cafe in London. A year later, she was having dinner in Los Angeles with her friend Mustafa the Poet when 'all of a sudden' Callum appeared. She thought: 'Oh, it's that really hot guy from The River Cafe.' During their conversation, the pair realised they both 'just happened to be reading' Hernan Diaz's novel Trust. Asked if she feels they were destined to be together, she replied: 'One thousand per cent.' Dua and Callum first sparked romance rumours in January 2024 when they both attended a Masters Of The Air afterparty in London. Prior to making her relationship public, the Dance the Night songstress revealed during promotion for her album Radical Optimism that she had to find her 'confidence' again after previous relationships had gone awry. Speaking to Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, she revealed: 'In terms of relationships, I needed to get to this place in order to find what I really needed. You have to be in the act of forgiveness and growing and learning, and being okay with the past in order to move on with what's to come next. 'So it's, for me, Happy for You is a beautiful, happy song, because it's so reflective of my journey. 'I think with every relationship, with every experience you learn about yourself, you learn about things that are hurtful to you, what you expect, what you should be ready to give as well. 'I think, again, it goes back to that exchange of vulnerability. 'I think I've had relationships which have been really hurtful, especially earlier on, where I feel like I've been made to feel like not good enough or have made me lose my confidence and I've had to find that again. 'You learn about your own non-negotiables. I think that's an important thing. It's of course the right person, but it's really about the right relationship. 'You find that in friendships and in love relationships as well, of your non-negotiables.'
