Dua Lipa looks giddy during her weekend London date with boyfriend in her new film
Dua Lipa, 27, surfaced in London for a date night this Friday with her boyfriend, the smoldering French director Romain Gavras, 42.
Romain is the son of Greco-French filmmaker Costa-Gavras, whose best-known work includes the darkly comic political thriller Z.
His latest outing with Dua happened to land on opening weekend of the new Barbie movie, for which she wrote and performed a new song.
Industry observers have been on tenterhooks for the box office face-off between Barbie and Oppenheimer, both of which are bowing this weekend.
On the heels of news that Barbie outperformed Oppenheimer in Thursday previews stateside, Dua appeared in ecstatic spirits Friday night.
The London-born pop act could be seen laughing uproariously while settling into the backseat of her car during her night out in her hometown.
She cut a stylish figure in a simple white blouse tucked into a pair of jeans, complemented by black leather shoes and a matching handbag.
Sharpening her features with makeup, Dua, whose heritage is Kosovar Albanian, let her silky locks cascade freely over her shoulders.
Meanwhile, her sizzling beau bared his toned forearms in a simple white t-shirt that matched his trousers and his sneakers.
Romain, who had allowed a distinguished touch of grey to creep into his hair, lent his outfit a splash of color with scarlet socks and a green jacket.
Their night out on the town swept the couple into the Chiltern Firehouse, a reliable London hot spot for a global variety of celebs.
Romain developed an international reputation directing music videos for such songs as Bad Girls by M.I.A. and No Church In The World by Kanye West.
His feature films include the crime caper The World Is Yours, starring the legendary French screen queen Isabelle Adjani and the beloved movie star Vincent Cassel.
