    Dua Lipa has dec lared Callum Turner her "favourite person in the world"

    The 29-year-old pop singer struck up a relationship with 'Masters of the Air' star Callum in January 2024 before getting engaged to him almost a year later and took to social media on his 35th birthday (15.02.25) to acknowledge him on his special day


    Alongside a picture of them both, she wrote on Instagram: "Happy Birthday to my favourite person in the world."

    Over the festive period, the 'Training Season' was spotted with a ring on her engagement finger, and the pair were said to be "so in love".

    A source told The Sun newspaper: "Dua and Callum are so in love and know this is forever.

    "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."

    Dua and Callum went Instagram official with their relationship in the summer of last year, but the Grammy Award-winning star confirmed the rumours that had been swirling around for months as part of a post celebrating her weekend at Glastonbury, where she made her first headline appearance.

    In amongst several photos and video recaps from her time at the festival, Dua shared a photo of herself and Callum staring into each other's eyes while they lay on the grass.

    She captioned the post: "dancing until you see the sunrise at stone circle is the glasto ritual.(sic)"

    In addition, the couple were also seen together at events including afterparties for the Grammy Awards, BAFTAs, and Brit Awards, as well as the Time100 Gala.

    Dua - whose relationship with Romain Favras, ended towards the end of 2023 - previously admitted she finds dating "confusing".

    She told Rolling Stone magazine: "Dating, I think overall, is just a little confusing

    "It's either through friends of friends or people you trust where you can meet new people, because (dating) is not really so straightforward when you are, I guess, a public person."
