Arturo Holmes / Getty Images In addition to being super talented, having a thriving career, and - of course - being absolutely stunning, social media users are often left in awe of her jetset lifestyle, with Dua regularly posting enviable Instagram dumps that show her soaking up the sun in various exotic locations.

John Shearer / Getty Images For reference, Dua and Callum were first romantically linked in January 2024, and back in June, they confirmed that they'd gotten engaged.

Vittorio Zunino Celotto / Getty Images Speaking to the publication, the British actor explained that he and Dua actually missed several opportunities to meet over the years in a series of Sliding Doors moments. Neil Mockford / Getty Images "We had maybe two, three, four, five near misses over our time where we didn't meet. Mutual friends and places," he shared. "There's one where she went to a party and then I went to a party, but I arrived minutes after she left." Samir Hussein / Getty Images "I arrived at 2 in the morning and she left at 1.45 - she checked her Uber and I checked a photo I'd taken opposite my friend's house when I arrived," Callum went on. "There were loads of things like that, and then, when we were both able to, we were both single and whatever, I just thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world." John Nacion / Getty Images But when they finally did meet for drinks in Los Angeles ahead of a mutual friend's birthday, the timing couldn't have been more perfect - with the two stars quickly realizing that they were up to the exact same part in the exact same book at the exact same time. Samir Hussein / Getty Images "We sat next to each other and realized we were reading the same book, which is crazy," Callum revealed. "It's called Trust [by Hernán Díaz] and I had just finished the first chapter and I told her and she looked at me and said: 'I just finished the first chapter too.' I said: 'So we're on the same page.'" View this photo on Instagram Instagram @dualipa / Via instagram.com "In the movie version of it, I look up to the sky and I'm like: 'I hear you. I understand. The signs are loud, don't worry.' And that was really the first [moment]," he added. Xny / Getty Images And this is the part of the interview that has triggered a huge response on social media, with many left in awe of the serendipity of Callum and Dua's meet-cute - as well as Callum's undeniably smooth one-liner. Mat Hayward / Getty Images One viral response reads: "This is literally out of fan fiction like are you KIDDING me?" Another added: "'so we're on the same page' this shit straight out of a romcom are you kidding me."One more noted: "everything i hear about dua lipa's life sounds like an actual movie."Somebody else playfully joked: "i'm dua lipa i'm always on vacation and have a perfect meet cute story girl fuck you." Elsewhere in the interview, Callum proved himself to be a true lover boy when he was asked how he and Dua manage to spend time together amid their busy work schedules. He said: "Well, FaceTime is a wonderful thing. And the other rule is that it's never not worth it - that's our slogan."

And if you're tired, it doesn't matter because you're going to have a nice time and have a nice memory," he explained. "I just flew to Boston for two days, and I was exhausted, but we had a really nice time." What do you make of Dua and Callum's seriously wholesome relationship? Let me know in the comments below!
