According to recent reports, the famous British singer Dua Lipa is allegedly involved in a secret romantic relationship with Romain Gavras, a French filmmaker known for directing music videos for popular rappers like Kanye West and Jay Z. It is said that they have been discreetly getting to know each other for several months and share many similarities. Dua Lipa, who split from her previous boyfriend Anwar Hadid in 2021, is said to appreciate having a partner who understands the music industry, and she believes Romain gets it because of their shared creativity.
The two were seen leaving a BAFTA Awards afterparty in London together, and they were also pictured in an Instagram post over Christmas with some of their friends. Romain Gavras, who is the son of the renowned film director Costa Gavras, has won several Oscars at the Academy Awards. He previously dated Rita Ora, who is also a famous singer and Dua Lipa's friend and rival in the pop music industry. They split up due to difficulties with their work schedules, but they remain close friends.
Dua Lipa and Rita Ora have been compared frequently since Dua Lipa rose to fame in 2016. They both have parents from Kosovo, attended the same London theatre school, and were once close friends before their relationship turned sour. Although neither of them has confirmed any feud between them publicly, rumors surfaced when Calvin Harris, an ex-boyfriend of Ora, collaborated with Lipa on her song "One Kiss" in 2018.
Rita Ora has since moved on and married Taika Waititi, a New Zealand filmmaker known for directing Marvel's "Thor" movies, "Jojo Rabbit," and the Kiwi cult classic "Hunt for the Wilderpeople."
