Dua Lipa made her red carpet debut with new boyfriend Romain Gavras at the Cannes Film Festival.

The Don’t Start Now hit maker, 27, engaged in PDA with her French director beau, 41, as they posed for the cameras in their first public appearance together.

The three-time Grammy winner opted for a chic one-shoulder black floor-length gown with cutouts and a long slit.

She paired the classy outfit with a pair of strappy heels and minimal jewellery.

Meanwhile, Gavras kept it classic with a black suit paired with a crisp white shirt and black tie.

The pair appeared to be in good spirits at the star-studded screening of Omar La Fraise (The King Of Algiers) and were seen laughing together while holding hands.

Lipa was first linked to Gavras in February, after the pair left a party in London together.

The pair were later seen holding hands at Paris Fashion Week that same month.

In March, sources claimed that the duo had been “quietly getting to know each other for months” after her break-up from Anwar Hadid.

“Dua and Romain have been quietly getting to know each other for several months,” a source told The Sun at the time.

“They have been enjoying spending time together. The pair met each other’s close circles over the festive period and have lots in common.”

“Dua knows how important it is to find someone who understands her industry. She feels Romain totally gets it. They’re both really creative people,” the insider added.

Prior to Gavras, Lipa dated Anwar Hadid, 23, the younger brother of models Gigi and Bella Hadid from 2019 until their split in January 2021.

Fast-forward to September 2022, Lipa sparked rumours she was dating Trevor Noah after being spotted out in New York with the comedian several times.

Despite rumours, her reps told Page Six at the time that they were just friends.

In December 2022, Lipa went on to briefly date rapper Jack Harlow after he wrote a song to the British-Albanian star entitled, appropriately enough, Dua Lipa.

For his part, Gavras previously dated singer Rita Ora for about six months in 2020.

Gavras is known for directing Kanye West’s music video No Church in the Wild and M.I.A.’s video Bad Girls.
