Dua Lipa Celebrates Callum Turner’s Birthday Amid Engagement Rumors

Dua Lipa and Callum Turner recently marked a special occasion as they celebrated Turner’s 35th birthday amidst swirling speculation regarding their engagement.

On Saturday, February 15, the 29-year-old pop icon took to her Instagram Stories to share a series of playful selfies dedicated to her boyfriend. In her heartfelt message, she referred to him as her “favorite person in the world,” accompanying the tribute with images of them together, including one of Lipa seated in Turner’s lap surrounded by vibrant greenery.

Among the shared photos, the couple radiated happiness, with one snapshot capturing them leaning into each other with smiles, while another featured them making comedic expressions for the camera.

These affectionate gestures come in the wake of engagement rumors that gained traction when Lipa posted holiday pictures in December 2024, which showcased a dazzling ring on her finger. The speculation intensified after she was spotted at Chanel’s Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2025 showcase during Paris Fashion Week on January 28, where she appeared to conceal her left hand under a stylish black Chanel cape. Further fueling the engagement whispers, the couple was photographed exiting a restaurant in Paris on February 1, where Lipa’s ring finger also remained hidden, yet they were seen walking hand in hand.

On the same day of the restaurant sighting, Lipa displayed what is believed to be her engagement ring in a post on Instagram. The post featured a carousel of images capturing moments from her recent month, with the first photo prominently showcasing a sparkling diamond ring on her left hand.

The caption read, “★january things★,” hinting at the significance of the images while leaving fans to ponder the nature of her relationship status.

Lipa and Turner were first romantically linked in January 2024, having been seen dancing closely during the afterparty for Turner’s film Masters of Air. They made their romance Instagram-official in July 2024 and have since enjoyed numerous public dates and outings together. Despite the ongoing speculation regarding their engagement, neither star has addressed the rumors directly.

While their social media interactions and public appearances demonstrate their close bond, both artists have chosen to maintain a level of privacy surrounding their relationship. Lipa has previously spoken about the importance of personal growth, particularly during her time as a single individual. In a 2023 interview on the Audacy’s Check In podcast, she emphasized the value of understanding one’s identity and needs outside of a relationship, highlighting the significance of self-reflection during moments of solitude.

“A lot of people wish their singledom away looking for someone else, but I think the whole point of spending that time alone is to really figure out what you need, and who you are in the silence and who you are without someone,” she stated. Lipa concluded by appreciating the joys of friendship and self-discovery that come from alone time.
