Finneas O'Connell says he's all for sister Billie Eilish's new relationship.

The Grammy Award winner, 25, remarked to E! News at the GQ Men of the Year party in West Hollywood about his thoughts on Eilish, 20, and Neighbourhood frontman Jesse Rutherford, who recently went public with their relationship.

"Listen, as long as she's happy, I'm happy," Finneas said.

Eilish and Rutherford, 31, have been slowly taking steps to bring their relationship into the spotlight after sparking romance rumors last month. Earlier this month, they made a splash with their red carpet debut at the LACMA Art + Film Gala 2022, wearing coordinated Gucci pajama looks.

The Happier Than Ever artist wore a silk floor-length nightgown with a sleeping mask on her head and Rutherford matched in Gucci pajamas and fuzzy slippers. The couple posed together on the red carpet while wrapped inside an oversized Gucci comforter.

They also spent time together on Halloween, when Eilish made their relationship Instagram official with a photo of them in funny couple's costumes. "Life is craaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy," she wrote in the caption.

Eilish and Rutherford poked fun at their 11-year age gap with her dressed up as a baby, wearing a bib and bonnet, while he went as an old man, donning a brown cardigan, suspenders and a bald cap.

They were previously spotted hanging out at Crossroads Kitchen in Los Angeles and were caught kissing outside Indian restaurant Lal Mirch a few days later, fueling romance rumors.

Finneas' comments came nearly a month after he revealed on Instagram that he was recovering from injuries to his collarbone and right elbow after "crashing" his electric bike. He explained in the post that he underwent surgery and needed to follow it up with physical therapy.

He said that "with hard work," he expects to be able to play at his sister's upcoming shows in December, which he is "so grateful for."
