Harper’s Bazaar and a slew of fan accounts captured their romantic European adventure, with PDA-filled snaps showcasing Lipa’s signature style and her dazzling engagement ring. The couple, who made their engagement official via British Vogue, have been consistently visible lately, attending the BST Hyde Park music festival in London, where witnesses and paparazzi alike noted their affectionate chemistry in the VIP section.
