It is reported that US artist and singer Olivia Rodrigo and UK actor Louis Partridge have separated after almost two years of dating. Those close to the couple have learnt that the decision to separate was made a few weeks ago and has come as a big surprise to them. Neither one of them has so far made a public comment about their break-up. For the unversed, Olivia Rodrigo was previously linked to DJ Zack Bia and filmmaker Adam Faze.
Olivia Rodrigo, Louis Partridge Reportedly Split
Different international tabloids have revealed that the duo was going through a trying time emotionally in recent weeks, which eventually made them decide that a break was what was needed. The insiders say that the break-up was a gradual one, and the couple had time to reflect on it and talk to each other before they parted.
The reports also reveal that during a recent holiday party at the home of singer Lily Allen in London, Rodrigo looked like she could not hold her tears. Those who were there say that the singer was very affected by the situation, and some of her close friends who always stand by her made themselves available to her throughout the night. The source says that the singer is in a difficult period and she trusts her friends and family to help her carry her burden.
Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge were linked romantically for the first time in October 2023 after they were spotted together celebrating Halloween in London. It was later confirmed that the two met through mutual friends and, after keeping in touch, they gradually became close. In the subsequent months, they were often spotted together and very quickly became one of the most talked-about young celebrity couples.
The pair debuted their first official red-carpet look together in August 2024 at the Venice Film Festival, where they attended the premiere of Louis Partridge’s project, Disclaimer. Yet, in the following months, Louis Partridge hinted in his interviews that they were deliberately not revealing their relationship publicly.
While promoting a Netflix series, last September, the actor confided that he was happy with the relationship and indifferent to being widely associated with Olivia Rodrigo’s global fame. He allegedly said that he was okay with how the public saw them and that he felt secure as a couple.
More Details
The alleged separation is happening when Rodrigo’s career is taking off. In 2024, she was the main act at major music festivals like Glastonbury and British Summer Time in London, solidifying her position as a global pop icon. Her landmark single Drivers License, released in 2021, was notable for its lyrical themes of heartbreak and emotional vulnerability.
