There's a lot of Sliding Doors moments: Dua Lipa talks about her relationship with Callum Turner

Dua Lipa shares how fate brought her and Callum Turner together before their engagement, including uncanny coincidences and shared connections.

"There's a lot of Sliding Doors moments – Dua Lipa"

Washington DC, June 13

Before Dua Lipa started dating Callum Turner, to whom she just confirmed she's engaged, they had several serendipitous encounters, reported People.

In a cover story with British Vogue, the 'Houdini' singer opened up about her relationship with the actor, whom she met at The River Cafe in London while having dinner with her dad.

"There's a lot of Sliding Doors moments," said Lipa about her relationship.

In 2014, Lipa was working at La Bodega Negra, and there's a photo of Turner outside the same spot that year. Then, in 2020, they attended the same pre-lockdown party and later found they had photos with the same guy in the background, only an hour apart, reported People.

"We have so many friends in common," she said.

A year after they were introduced to each other at The River Cafe, she was in Los Angeles having dinner with her friend when Turner showed up.

"Oh, it's that really hot guy from The River Cafe," she thought.

Callum Turner asked her what she was reading, and she said Hernan Diaz's novel Trust. "And we both just happened to be reading the same book," she said.

When asked if that made her feel like they were destined to be together, she said, "1000%."

Singer Dua Lipa has confirmed her engagement to actor Callum Turner. In a recent interview, the 'Levitating' hitmaker shared the good news, as per People. "Yeah, we're engaged. It's very exciting," Lipa told a reporter from the outlet over dinner.

She added that her engagement ring was made after Turner consulted her best friends and her sister."I'm obsessed with it. It's so me," Lipa said. "It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well."

The couple's relationship began in early 2024 when they were first seen together at an afterparty for the premiere of Apple TV+'s Masters of the Air. Turner, who stars in the Apple TV+ drama series, was captured in a video slow dancing with Lipa, as per People.

The actor and the pop star were first linked in early 2024 when they were seen on video slow-dancing together while attending a party celebrating Turner's TV show, Masters of the Air.

They became Instagram official in July 2024 and recently made their red carpet debut at the 2025 Met Gala in May, reported People.

Such a sweet love story! ❤️ It's amazing how destiny works - all those coincidences before they actually got together. Wishing them a lifetime of happiness! Indian weddings are more elaborate though, wonder if they'll have any Indian elements since Dua has Albanian roots?

Honestly, I don't get why Bollywood media is covering this so much. We have our own celebrity couples with more interesting stories! But good for them I guess.

The way he consulted her friends and sister for the ring is so thoughtful! 🥹 In India, families are so involved in these decisions too. Maybe they'll visit India for their honeymoon? Dua would love our culture!

All these celebrity relationships seem perfect until they break up 2 years later. Hope this one lasts though - they do seem genuinely connected. Also, can we appreciate how Dua Lipa's music has become popular in Indian clubs?

Their story is like a Bollywood movie with all those "Sliding Doors" moments! But in our films, there would be at least 3 dance numbers by now 😂 Wishing them the best - hope they consider shooting a music video in India!
