Dua Lipa is Engaged – Here's What to Know About Her Fiancé, Callum Turner

In a swirl of diamonds and hushed congratulations, British pop powerhouse Dua Lipa, 29, is reportedly engaged to actor Callum Turner, 35. The couple, who have kept their romance relatively low-key despite public sightings and fashion week appearances, are said to be over the moon. While Lipa’s A-list status is undeniable — Grammy winner, Versace muse, and Barbie soundtrack queen — the man she’s set to marry has, until recently, remained something of a mystery to those outside film and fashion circles.

So, who exactly is Callum Turner — and why is Hollywood quietly obsessed with him?

The London-Born Leading Man

Born in Chelsea, London, in 1990, Callum Robilliard Turner was a model before he was an actor, cutting his teeth with campaigns for Burberry and Reebok. But his on-screen performances have solidified his name in industry circles.

He earned early praise for his work in indie films like Queen and Country (2014) and Green Room (2015), and later broke through more prominently with his performance in the BBC series War & Peace. He also received a BAFTA nomination for his role in The Capture.

Callum Turner in the Wizarding World

Yes, he’s in Harry Potter too — well, sort of. Turner plays Theseus Scamander, the older brother of Eddie Redmayne’s Newt Scamander, in the Fantastic Beasts spin-off franchise. First appearing in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018), Turner's character is a respected auror working for the British Ministry of Magic — a sharp contrast to his younger brother’s eccentric magizoologist ways.

Meeting Dua Lipa

Dua Lipa and Callum Turner’s relationship reportedly began over dinner at London’s renowned River Café through mutual friends. Their connection grew unexpectedly months later in Los Angeles when they both happened to be reading the same novel, Trust by Hernan Diaz — a serendipitous moment that deepened their bond.

And Before Dua Lipa?

Celebrity couplings always pique curiosity, and Turner’s past relationship is no exception. He previously dated The Crown and Me Before You actress Vanessa Kirby. The pair were together for about four years before splitting amicably in 2020, having largely kept their relationship out of the public eye.

So What Now for Mr Lipa?

With this engagement, Callum Turner steps from relative privacy into full tabloid glare. But those in the know have long considered him a serious actor with serious taste — not just in roles, but in partners, style, and career choices.

For now, though, all eyes are on the ring, the wedding rumours, and what happens when one of Britain’s most enigmatic screen talents links arms with pop royalty. The magic, it seems, is just beginning.
