Move over Bennifer, Dua Lipa and Jack Harlow are the new top power couple

In a pairing so starry it warrants its own constellation, Dua Lipa and Jack Harlow are reportedly dating

Rumours are swirling over a potential romance between musicians Jack Harlow and Dua Lipa, after the pair were spotted together at a recent event in Los Angeles. Earlier this week, PageSix reported that Lipa and Harlow were officially dating, with a source claiming that the two have been in “constant communication” for weeks. If true, the pairing is starry enough to warrant its own constellation, and certainly enough to upstage 2022’s fellow power couple of the moment, Bennifer

Lipa and Harlow share a few connections, with both musicians signed to labels owned by Warner Music Group. Beyond that, Harlow named one of the tracks on his 2022 sophomore album, Come Home the Kids Miss You after Lipa, during which he raps: “Dua Lipa, I’m tryna do more with her than just a feature.” Upon the release of the album, Harlow revealed that he’d contacted Lipa to get her blessing for the namesake track. After an initially awkward response, Harlow said Lipa “eventually agreed.”

In a rare instance where a big romantic swing lands, the lyric seemingly did wonders, with the pair later seen conversing and posing for pictures at Variety’s Hitmakers event last week. After that, the rumour mill spun reports of shared flights to New York City and lunch dates, although the couple left all venues separately (which is usually a tell-tale sign). Lipa and Harlow’s potential fling is the latest in a long list of celebrity couples to overdo the PDA this year. 

2022 alone has seen a slew of starry pairings, from musician Dominic Fike and Euphoria actress Hunter Schafer to the absolute chaos that was Julia Fox and Kanye West. Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian ended their months-long fling in August, while Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez solidified their status with marriage in July. Naturally, Twitter reacted to Dua and Harlow (Darlow?) in typical Twitter fashion.
