The couple was spotted on a date night at Tate McRae's London stop of her Think Later world tour. While the duo kept a low profile, they definitely didn't go unnoticed by fans who had seats nearby. You might be wondering: Why were they in Europe now? Well, the European leg of Rodrigo's GUTS tour kicks off on April 30 in Dublin — so maybe we can expect to see Partridge in the crowd there too.

Well, there you have it: the proof we've been looking for! Rodrigo and Partridge were photographed locked in a passionate embrace while… getting gas? The musician and the actor were snapped making out at a gas station in New York City, with Partridge's hand in a very compromising position. (See the pics via PopCrave.) The two were dressed casually, with Rodrigo in brown cords and a floral blouse and Partridge in jeans, a plaid shirt and a baseball cap. Fans wasted approximately zero time weighing in on the photos via Twitter/X, calling out Partridge's hand placement and calling them “cuties.”

These pics are pretty adorable, and you can feel their affection through the screen. New love is so much fun! The two were also spotted around NYC taking pics of one another and generally looking like lovebirds. "They looked super happy and really could not keep their hands off each other," an anonymous source told E! News. "When he got out to pump gas she got out just to embrace him and kiss him." Ahh, l'amour!

December 8, 2023: Partridge supports Rodrigo at Jingle Ball and SNL.

Partridge was in the building to support Rodrigo during two big career events in early December in NYC: her set at Z100's Jingle Ball and her performance on the December 9 episode of Saturday Night Live.

At Jingle Ball, Partridge was seen in the crowd with Rodrigo's best friends, Conan Gray and Madison Hu. Fans captured sweet moments on video like Partridge recording Rodrigo's performance and singing along to “All-American B*tch.” Partridge was also spotted attending the Saturday Night Live after party with Rodrigo and leaving the function in the same car.

October 2023: Rodrigo and Partridge are spotted together for the first time.

The musician and the Enola Holmes actor were first seen together in London during October 2023. Some blurry photos of the two showed them laughing and walking together with their arms around each other (which is compelling, but not necessarily confirmation of a relationship). As first noted by People, Partridge was spotted in the background of photos Rodrigo took with fans that same weekend.

On October 31, an unconfirmed source told tabloid The Sun: “Olivia flew to London with her best pal, singer Conan Gray, but it was Louis who she came to see. They met through mutual pals earlier in the year and have been messaging quite a bit. She has spent a few days in the capital hanging out with them all but it’s been Louis who she has been inseparable from. They have been for dinners and nights out. They hit a club together on Friday night and were acting very coupley. It’s really sweet to see her happy.”

August 2022: Rodrigo and Zack Bia break up.

After her split with Faze, Rodrigo briefly dated then-26-year-old DJ and influencer Zack Bia. While many fans believed that her GUTS song “Vampire” was inspired by him, Bia wasn't so sure. “I don't think it's really about me,” he told GQ in fall 2023. “I think the Internet just ran with it.”

According to Bia, there was zero drama behind their breakup. “Look, I’m in the industry so I know how a song gets made,” he explained. “We hung out, we're both busy, and we ended up not furthering our relationship. There was never any drama, you know?”

February 2022: Rodrigo splits with producer Adam Faze.

As confirmed by People, Olivia Rodrigo and music producer Adam Faze, who was then 25, parted ways in early 2022 after seven months together. The couple never publicly confirmed their relationship, but their breakup was speculated at the top of 2022 after Rodrigo seemed to unfollow Faze on Instagram.
