Louis Partridge and Olivia Rodrigo
MEGAOlivia Rodrigo apparently still feels “so American” around her boyfriend Louis Partridge – especially during their last meeting in New York.
Rodrigo and Partridge, both 21, were spotted enjoying a romantic stroll around Greenwich Village on Friday, January 17. The actor was seen walking alongside Rodrigo, wrapping an arm around his lower back.
The Grammy winner and Partridge dressed casually for the outing. Rodrigo wore a striped shirt under a black quilted coat with blue pants and a pair of sunglasses. Partridge, meanwhile, opted for a black button-down jacket and khakis.

“Dating probably shouldn’t be done in the public eye,” Partridge said. British Vogue in a March 2024 profile. “Enough happens between two people. You don’t need the voices of thousands of other people in your head. I think she’s in a much worse situation than me. I can be a bit of a normal person. She has tons and tons of eyes on her case.
He added at the time: “If there are a lot of people talking about you in a room, you can choose to put your ear to the door to hear what they are saying or not.” I think you’d probably be better off not letting curiosity get the better of you.

“And he laughs at all my jokes / And he says I’m so American / Oh my God, it’s just not fair of him / To make me feel this much,” Rodrigo sings on the song she launched in March 2024 on her album Tripe. “I’ll go wherever he goes / And he says I’m so American / Oh my God, I’ll marry him / If he keeps this up.”
Rodrigo chose not to name his songwriting muses — including on 2021’s “Driver’s License,” which was widely rumored to be about his ex Joshua Bassett – and Partridge did the same.
“Not my song, not my place,” the British star succinctly declared. She in October 2024. “So I wouldn’t know.”
