When a celebrity couple goes public with their relationship, it is impossible for them to slip back into the shadows and ask for privacy. But it looks like Dua Lipa and British actor Callum Turner are already done with the mystery of their relationship and are putting it all out there. Last January, the couple was spotted twice in just a few days. Since then, they have been seen at the Grammys after party, and TIME100 gala, and even spent several holidays. Naturally, rumors of another couple in town spread like wildfire. But not everyone is thrilled about this pairing.
Just recently, Dua Lipa and Callum Turner were seen looking totally smitten with each other in Paris at the launch of Tiffany Titan by Pharrell Williams.
The couple, dressed in matching outfits from head to toe, could not take their eyes off each other as they posed for photos and made their way around the event, hand-in-hand. While many fans were melting over the couple’s sweet gestures and packed-on PDA, there were also plenty of critics who were quick to pour some negativity on the good vibes.

As a couple, Lipa and Turner have sparked some mixed reactions from the internet. Ever since they went Instagram official in July of last year, people’s opinions have been all over the place. That said, in a December interview with Billboard, Lipa described 2024 as the best year of her life. While she and Turner are clearly enjoying their time together, fans do not seem as happy about their relationship as they are.

Fans raise doubts about Dua Lipa and Callum Turner’s relationship
Dua Lipa and Callum Turner are seen as a bit of an odd couple. The reason is the big gap in their public profiles. Lipa is a worldwide pop sensation, while Turner is an actor who is not quite as famous. Because of this, some people think he is just riding her coattails, benefiting from her fame. Others think the couple just does not quite fit together or is not the most aesthetically pleasing. And fans have not been shy about voicing these opinions, especially after seeing the couple’s PDA. X user, @donebyroy even said, “he is breeding the f— out of her”.
