Dua Lipa And Callum Turner Are Engaged After Romantic Christmas Proposal

Lipa’s engagement ring has caught everyone’s eye after her boyfriend, Turner, reportedly proposed during a romantic Christmas celebration.

Lipa, who has been dating the 34-year-old actor for over a year, posted the photo on Instagram. In it, she flaunted her ring with a big smile. She wore an oversized jacket and festive reindeer antlers, capturing the holiday spirit.

In the caption, the “Levitating” hitmaker wrote, “Home for the holidays, sending you all so much love.”

A source close to the couple told The Sun they are “so in love and know this is forever. They are engaged and couldn’t be happier.”

The insider added: “Dua has had one of the best years of her career professionally and this is the cherry on the cake. Callum is such a solid support for Dua, and they make a wonderful couple. Their family and friends are so happy. It’s been an amazing Christmas for them.”

Dua Lipa’s Engagement Ring Is Worth Up To $31K, Expert Claims

In an interview with the Daily Mail, Jewelry specialist Anya Walsh from 77 Diamonds, Europe’s largest online diamond retailer, revealed that the stunning engagement ring Lipa is wearing appears to feature a beautiful solitaire diamond set on an 18-carat gold band and estimated it could be worth around £25K.

Walsh shared: “The ring seems to be either a classic solitaire diamond set on a large, gold band, in what seems to be 18-carat yellow gold. The slightly wider than average band gives the ring a confident, chunky feel.”

She continued, “It’s a more modern look for a classic solitaire but still retains an elegant, wearable style. The diamond could either be set in a bezel, which is a gold surround that secures the diamond without the need of claws, or a simple four-claw setting.”

Based on her expertise, Walsh believes the diamond is likely around two carats in a round or cushion cut.

She explained: “From what I can see, it’s a beautiful, classic solitaire – a long-term favorite beloved by brides-to-be – that can easily be teamed with Dua Lipa’s many styles and outfits.”

Welsh concluded that, depending on the quality of the diamond, a high-quality two-carat solitaire ring with a wide band could cost anywhere from “around £20,000 to £25,000 at 77 Diamonds.”

Dua Lipa Opens Up About Rediscovering Confidence And Love After Past Relationships

Lipa and Turner first sparked dating rumors in January after they were seen together at a Masters Of The Air afterparty in London.

Before confirming their relationship, the “One Kiss” singer opened up in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1 about rediscovering her confidence after difficult past relationships while promoting her album “Radical Optimism.”

She shared how personal growth and self-reflection helped her move forward, explaining, “In terms of relationships, I needed to get to this place in order to find what I really needed.”

Lipa added, “You have to be in the act of forgiveness and growing and learning, and being okay with the past in order to move on with what’s to come next.”

The Singer Sees Her Past Relationships As An Opportunity To ‘Learn About Yourself’

The 29-year-old described her song “Happy for You” as a reflection of that journey, calling it a “beautiful, happy song.”

“I think with every relationship, with every experience you learn about yourself, you learn about things that are hurtful to you, what you expect, what you should be ready to give as well,” she said. “I think, again, it goes back to that exchange of vulnerability.”

Lipa highlighted the importance of vulnerability and revealed that earlier relationships left her feeling inadequate, causing her to lose confidence.

“I’ve had to find that again,” she admitted. “You learn about your own non-negotiables. I think that’s an important thing. It’s of course the right person, but it’s really about the right relationship.”
