Callum Turner Reveals 'Rule' of Managing Long Distance With Fiancee Dua Lipa

Fiancés Callum Turner and Dua Lipa are lucky in love — so much so that they can conquer long-distance dating with ease.

“Well, FaceTime is a wonderful thing, and the other rule is that it’s never not worth it — that’s our slogan,” Turner, 35, told The Times of London in a profile published on Saturday, October 18. “If you can go for two days, just f***ing go, and if you’re tired, it doesn’t matter because you’re going to have a nice time and have a nice memory.”

Turner further revealed that he recently jetted off to Boston for a two-day trip just to catch up with Lipa, 30, in between her tour and his filming commitments.

“I was exhausted, but we had a really nice time. We went to an incredible restaurant, Neptune or something — I always forget the name of places,” Turner recalled to the outlet. “Thank God for her because she remembers everything. It was one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to in my life, and I did it with her so I’m glad I went.”

The Eternity star and Lipa have been together since January 2024.

“We had maybe two, three, four, five near-misses over our time where we didn’t meet,” Turner told The Times of the origin of the pair’s love story. “There’s one where she went to a party and then I went to a party, but I arrived minutes after she left. I arrived at 2 in the morning and she left at 1:45. … There were loads of things like that and then, when we were both able to, we were both single and whatever, I just thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world.”

Turner and Lipa finally met when they attended a mutual friend’s birthday party in Los Angeles.

“We sat next to each other and realized we were reading the same book, which is crazy. It’s called Trust [by Hernán Díaz],” Turner quipped. “I had just finished the first chapter and I told her and she looked at me and said, ‘I just finished the first chapter too.’ I said, ‘So, we’re on the same page.’”

He continued, “In the movie version of it, I look up to the sky and I’m like, ‘I hear you. I understand.’ The signs are loud, and that was really the first [moment we shared].”

As Turner and Lipa’s romance heated up, they introduced one another to their families.

“She wanted my mum to like her,” Turner added to the Times. “I was nervous meeting her parents too. I wanted her parents to like me.”

Once Turner and Lipa got the approval of one another’s parents, things escalated even more. The “Levitating” singer and Turner made their red carpet debut at the 2025 Met Gala in May, one month before revealing their engagement.

“We’re engaged. It’s very exciting,” Lipa told British Vogue in a June profile. “It’s very exciting. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don’t know, be best friends forever. It’s a really special feeling.”
