Despite being one of the biggest names in pop today, Lana Del Rey has managed to keep a low profile on most of her rumored romances and relationships.
Throughout her career, Del Rey has been romantically linked to fellow musicians, industry insiders, and even a reality TV cop. Today, as far as the public knows, she is currently single.
During an interview for Harper's Bazaar's December 2023/January 2024 cover story, the Grammy winner opened up about her love life.
“I’m definitely not in love right now. No,” she said. “Absolutely not in love. Have been, but no.” She added, “It hasn’t crossed my mind in the last five months on the road or here yet. But give it a week. My history, sure, it’s coming for me at some point. Yeah. It would be interesting if it didn’t.”
Read ahead for a deep dive on Del Rey's complete dating history.
Evan Winiker (2022-2023)
While it's unknown when the two started dating, they first sparked romance rumors after attending the Malibu Chili Cook-Off together in September 2022. In March 2023, Billboard reported that the two got engaged, but Del Rey eventually confirmed her single status in an interview for Bazaar's December 2023/2024 issue.
Like Del Rey, Winiker has a career in the music industry. He joined Range Media in 2021 as an artist-manager, bringing a host of clients from his previous agency, Full Stop Management, including MAX, Daya, Disco Biscuits, Skyler Stonestreet, and Walk off the Earth. He also previously played in indie rock band Steel Train alongside music producer Jack Antonoff.
Jack Donoghue (2022)
Donoghue, a member of rock band Salem, sparked relationship rumors with Del Rey after he posted a video of the two of them at a monster truck race on his Instagram Story in early 2022. In the clip, the singer can be heard referring to Donoghue as “babe.”
In July 2022, he continued to fuel those rumors by posting a picture of himself and Del Rey outside of Chicago's Cook County Department of Corrections facility. He simply captioned the post, “family visit.”
Clayton Johnson (2020-2021)
After reportedly meeting on a dating app, Del Rey got engaged to Johnson, a member of musical brother trio The Johnsons, according to People. Throughout their courtship, the couple often flaunted PDA-filled pictures of each other on social media and were seen out and about with each other in public on several occasions. They even coordinated Halloween costumes, with Del Rey dressing up as Dorothy and Johnson as the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz.
However, by the fall of 2021, the two had seemingly split up, with Johnson deleting posts of Del Rey from his Instagram account.
Sean Larkin (September 2019—March 2020)
Del Rey and Larkin, a cop and a reality TV star from the Emmy Award–winning documentary series Live PD, confirmed their romance when paparazzi snapped photos of them on a Central Park date in September 2019. Del Rey addressed the fledgling romance in an interview the Los Angeles Times the following month: “I didn't know we were being photographed. I would've worn something different.”
Since, the two had graced multiple red-carpet events together, with Del Rey even bringing Larkin as her plus one to the 62nd annual Grammy Awards. But, by March 2020, the relationship was over.
“Right now, we're just friends,” Larkin revealed in an interview with the New York Times. “We still talk and whatnot, we just have busy schedules right now.”
G-Eazy (April 2017—August 2017)
Del Rey reportedly had a brief fling with the rapper, who she was first spotted with in April 2017 during Coachella. A month later, the two were photographed clubbing together in Hollywood. But, by the time August rolled in, G-Eazy's relationship with fellow musician Halsey became official, marking the end of his courtship with Del Rey.
While not much is known about the duo's time together, fans have speculated that G-Eazy dissed Del Rey in his 2020 track, “Moana.” The lyrics state: “I know a Keshia and I know Lana / They try to get me back, but I'm like, ‘No, nah, nah’ / I'm sorry, I don't want no drama, nah / That's a hard no, pass.”
Francesco Carrozzini (July 2014—November 2015)
Del Rey's romance with Carrozzini, an Italian director and photographer, became public in July 2014 after paparazzi captured photos of the two spending time together in Portofino.
Carrozzini reportedly told Turkish outlet Hürriyet Kelebek that he moved from New York to Los Angeles for seven months to be with Del Rey. “We have a quiet, isolated life in Los Angeles. We are in our own world,” he said at the time.
Sources later confirmed their break up by November 2015.
Barrie-James O'Neill (2011—2014)
Del Rey began dating O'Neill, a Scottish singer-songwriter, in 2011. She talked about writing music with and about O'Neill in a 2021 interview with Just Jared.
“When I met my boyfriend… we always say that the entire time we were writing for each other, but we didn’t know it until we met each other,” she said. “So, you feel like even though you didn’t know the person then all the songs are for them now. That’s romantic.”
In 2013, O'Neill's band, Kassidy, opened for Del Rey during the Paradise Tour. That same year, they sparked engagement rumors after Del Rey was seen wearing a massive diamond ring on her ring finger. But, by the next year, the singer revealed that they were no longer together.
“We are currently not together,” she told Swiss newspaper 20 Minuten. “He is a wonderful person. But there are some things he has to deal with. I will not explain it in detail. This was hard on our relationship. I no longer felt free.”
Despite their split, the two seem to remain on friendly terms. O'Neill is even credited as a producer and collaborator on Del Rey's eighth studio album, Blue Banisters, which dropped in October 2021.
