Coming to her personal life, Olivia is busy dating British actor, Louis Partridge. But do you know that the pop icon once confessed her deep feelings about her boyfriend, Louis, through a song? Yes, you read it right. In 2024, Olivia released a song named, So American which seemed like a love letter that she wholeheartedly dedicated to her beau. Now that the American singer is gaining a lot of attention for shading Taylor Swift, let’s have a look at her beautiful love story with British actor, Louis Partridge.

Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge spark budding romance buzz in 2023

Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge first sparked budding romance rumors in October 2023 when the duo were seen hanging out in London. Fans shared cosy pictures of the couple on social media platforms, showing the two walking into a venue together. In one picture, the duo was seen hugging, with their arms around each other’s waists.

The dating buzz was further fuelled in December 2023, when Olivia and Louis were photographed kissing on the streets of New York City. The PDA-filled outing, with each person caressing the other, seemed like a confirmation that the duo was dating. From casual hangouts to intimate moments, these examples made it clear that Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge were romantically involved by the end of 2023.

Olivia Rodrigo’s song, So American was dedicated to her boyfriend, Louis Partridge

Olivia Rodrigo’s 2024 song, So American is an adorable tribute to her British boyfriend and actor, Louis Partridge. The song is a part of the deluxe edition of her album, Guts (Spilled). While she never mentions Louis by name, the lyrics clearly hints at him. The playful references, such as cultural differences like driving on the right side in the U.S. versus the left in Britain, seemed like an emotional love letter to her boyfriend. Especially the line “And he says I’m so American / Oh God, I’m gonna marry him / If he keeps this shit up,” emphasises the pop icon’s true feelings about their relationship.

Later during her 2025 Glastonbury performance, Olivia explained that the song was inspired by the man of her dreams, Louis. Olivia shared that she composed the song when she was falling in love with Louis. She later mentioned that the track contains the inside jokes of their relationship. She was quoted as saying:

“So American. I wrote this next song when I was falling in love with this boy from London, and as we were getting to know each other, we were discovering all of these cross-cultural differences. He would make fun of me for pronouncing things very American—like Glaston-berry .So, I took all of our little inside jokes and I made a song on that.”

Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge made their relationship Instagram official after her 2025 Glastonbury performance

The pop icon and the British actor were romantically linked since October 2023, but the duo maintained a dignified silence until June 2025. After Olivia’s bold confession about her special song dedicated to her boyfriend, Louis, the British actor took to his Instagram handle on June 30, 2025, and shared a carousel featuring Olivia’s moments at the concert. He heaped praise on her girlfriend and her performance. Making their relationship Instagram official, Louis wrote:

“I hope you caught Olivia’s show last night. A truly special performance on such a huge scale. She worked her ass off for it and couldn’t be more deserving of all her success and for the great crowd that was watching. What a moment #glastonberry.”

Olivia Rodrigo’s boyfriend, Louis Partridge, shares a rare insight about their relationship

In a recent interview with Variety, Louis Partridge shared that he’s very happy in his relationship with Olivia Rodrigo and believes the pop icon is happy, too. He jokingly described himself as ‘Mr. Olivia Rodrigo’, and shared that everything is good in their paradise. He expressed that Olivia’s special shoutout during her Glastonbury 2025 performance felt ‘surreal’ but was ‘a treat and a joy.’

Earlier in a 2024 interview with British Vogue, the British actor shared that he prefers to keep his relationship ‘private’. He explained that dating in public is quite hard because having too many people watching and commenting on the relationship can add unnecessary pressure. In his words:

“Dating probably shouldn’t be done in the public eye. There’s enough going on between two people. You don’t need the voices of thousands of others in your head. I think she’s got it a lot worse than I have. I can be a bit of a normal person. She’s got tons and tons of eyes on her case.”
