Smoking Dua Lipa packs on the PDA with fiancé Callum Turner in Paris

PUBLISHED: 09:44 GMT, 29 January 2025 Dua Lipa and Callum Turner took their status as a smoking hot couple literally on Monday as they packed on the PDA while puffing on cigarettes. The couple, who are newly-engaged, have been in Paris for Haute Couture Fashion Week and seemed swept up with the spirit of the City of Love as they couldn't keep their hands off each other. Sitting in front of the Eiffel Tower, Dua, 29, and Callum, 34, didn't seem to have a care in the world as they only had eyes for one another. Yet Dua's fans may have been surprised to see her smoking, given she proudly declared that she'd kicked the habit last year. During an appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers the pop star explained that she initially gave up smoking for her Future Nostalgia tour in 2022 in order to make sure her vocal health was at its best - before announcing she had stopped altogether. She told Seth: 'I was smoking cigarettes at the time... But I've stopped. I've quit, guys.' It is not clear exactly when the Houdini hitmaker began smoking, but after suffering from laryngitis in December 2021 she felt the need to quit for the sake of her tour and later gushed about how much 'confidence' quitting had given her. Speaking on her At Your Service podcast, she revealed: 'I had laryngitis in December and that kind of kickstarted me quitting smoking a month earlier than I was supposed to. But I did it and I have stuck to it. 'I feel so excited and there is a lot of adrenaline – and sometimes I don't feel confident at all. 'There are moments when I am on stage every night and, yeah I am quite exposed, and I am dancing and performing and I feel like I have to work out and stay really healthy in order to feel good about myself. 'So I only like to do things that make me feel good and that also helps with my confidence.' Yet in August last year she teased that she'd taken smoking up again, sharing a photograph clutching a pack of box of Malboro Gold. After finishing her cigarette in Paris, Dua was in the mood for dancing, and in a video seen by the Mail, she and Callum performed a ballroom-esque routine, twirling and pulling one another in. One onlooker said: ‘They looked so happy, they were laughing and hugging and then broke into some romantic dancing. ‘They had their arms around one another’s necks and looked like they were also singing to each other. They added: ‘There were twirls and some fancy footwork, they were clearly having a wonderful time. ‘[Callum and Dua] might be famous but to anyone watching they were like any loved-up young couple.’ The pair, who were first spotted together in January 2024, got engaged late last year. Callum - an actor whose credits include the films Fantastic Beasts and The Boys On The Boat - splashed out on a two-carat round diamond, set in an approximately 5mm, 18-karat, yellow gold band. Friends of the couple say they are thrilled to be getting married and are ‘besotted’ with one another – and it seems they don’t care who knows. During their romantic evening, Dua, whose hits include New Rules, Physical and Houdini, was seen kissing Callum, laughing as he placed his hands on her bottom, and posing for selfies.
