Olivia Rodrigo Makes First Post With Boyfriend Louis Partridge After Glastonbury
Love may be embarrassing, but that doesn't seem to be keeping Olivia Rodrigo from making her relationship Instagram official.
After almost two years of rumors and hopeful speculation from adoring fans, Olivia Rodrigo, 22, confirmed that English actor, Louis Partridge, 22, is most definitely her boyfriend in an Instagram post recounting her wildly successful weekend headlining Glastonbury Music Festival.
The caption on Rodrigo's post reads, "glasto. best weekend there ever was. so happy and grateful🌼🌼🌼."
And, while it might look like she's only talking about her performance at first, fans who scrolled through the carousel took note of the short video on the 8th slide, the clip of the Vampire singer on the shoulders of none other than Louis Partridge, rocking out in the crowd.
Rodrigo's Lowercase shades may be shielding her eyes from the hot Glastonbury sun, but blissful, unadulterated joy is written all over her face. Over the weekend, Olivia Rodrigo performed an iconic headlining set, during which she invited '80s legend Robert Smith of the Cure to join her on stage. The pair performed two of Smith's greatest hits from the Cure's discography: Friday I'm In Love and Just Like Heaven.
Fans raced to the comments to celebrate the couple's launch. "THE 8TH SLIDE OMG HELLO LOUIS WE FINALLY GOT HALF HIS FACE ON OLIVIA'S FEED WE WON😭," commented one fan, who had absolutely no chill, but in the best possible way.
While rumors have surrounded Rodrigo and Partridge for the better part of the last two years, this is the first time Rodrigo has shared anything about her relationship on social media.
Partridge also made a point of posting about Rodrigo on his own Instagram account, praising her performance and her work ethic both on and off-stage.
"You are the sweetest most supportive boyfriend and I love the two of you together! ❤️❤️❤️" wrote a commenter on Partridge's post.

BBC music boss reportedly steps back from duties after Bob Vylan set decision
The BBC's director of music Lorna Clarke has stepped back from her day-to-day duties after controversy over the broadcaster's decision to show punk duo Bob Vylan's Glastonbury Festival set live, according to reports in The Times. It comes after singer Bobby Vylan, whose real name is reportedly Pascal Robinson-Foster, 34, led crowds in chants of 'death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)' during their set on Saturday afternoon. In a statement on Thursday, the BBC admitted it had assessed the Ipswich-formed act as 'high risk' before Glastonbury but deemed them suitable for live streaming before later saying this was 'clearly not the case', and apologising for the group's 'deplorable behaviour'. Clarke is reported to have stepped back from her responsibilities, which include overseeing six radio networks and live music events, while an investigation takes place, while a small group of senior BBC staff responsible for music and live events are also said to have stepped back. Following the incident, the BBC confirmed it would no longer live stream acts it deems 'high risk'. In the statement released on Thursday, the BBC said: 'We deeply regret that such offensive and deplorable behaviour appeared on the BBC and want to apologise to our viewers and listeners and in particular the Jewish community. 'We are also unequivocal that there can be no place for antisemitism at, or on, the BBC. 'It is clear that errors were made both in the lead-up to and during Bob Vylan's appearance. We think it's important to set out some of the detail around the streaming of this performance. 'Bob Vylan were deemed high risk following a risk assessment process applied to all acts appearing at Glastonbury. Seven acts including Bob Vylan were included in this category and they were all deemed suitable for live streaming with appropriate mitigations. 'Prior to Glastonbury, a decision was taken that compliance risks could be mitigated in real time on the live stream – through the use of language or content warnings – without the need for a delay. This was clearly not the case.' It added: 'Given the failings that have been acknowledged we are taking actions to ensure proper accountability for those found to be responsible for those failings in the live broadcast. We will not comment further on those processes at this time. 'Furthermore, as a result we will make immediate changes to live streaming music events. 'Any music performances deemed high risk will now not be broadcast live or streamed live.' Since the performance, Avon and Somerset Police have launched an investigation into the comments made during the group's West Holts Stage set. It has also emerged that the group were already under investigation by police for comments made at a performance one month before Glastonbury. Video footage appears to show Bobby Vylan at Alexandra Palace telling crowds: 'Death to every single IDF soldier out there as an agent of terror for Israel. Death to the IDF.' The group issued a statement on Tuesday claiming they were being 'targeted for speaking up'. The band have also had their US visas revoked, ahead of their tour later this year, were pulled from their Saturday headline slot at Radar festival in Manchester and from an upcoming performance at a German music venue. Bob Vylan are expected to perform at the Boardmasters surfing and music festival in Newquay, Cornwall, in August. The group is known for addressing political issues in their music including racism, masculinity and class, and have released four albums in Dread (2019), We Live Here (2020), Bob Vylan Presents The Price Of Life (2022), and Humble As The Sun (2024).

‘It Was Horrific': Radar Festival Speaks Out on Bob Vylan Cancellation
Manchester's Radar Festival says it was left with no choice but to pull Bob Vylan from its 2025 lineup, following the punk-rap duo's controversial set at Glastonbury Festival. The pair sparked headlines during their performance on Glastonbury's West Holts Stage, leading chants of 'Death to the IDF' while also calling out the BBC, the US and UK governments, and more. Frontman Bobby Vylan told the crowd, 'We are the violent punks, because sometimes you gotta get your message across with violence because that is the only language some people speak, unfortunately.'

Glastonbury organizers issued a statement condemning the chants, saying they 'very much crossed a line' and that there is 'no place at Glastonbury for anti-Semitism, hate speech or incitement to violence.' Radar initially confirmed Bob Vylan's removal with a brief statement on July 2: 'Bob Vylan will not be appearing at RADAR Festival this weekend.' But in a new interview on the Two Promoters One Pod podcast, organizer Catherine Jackson-Smith shared that the festival did not want to cancel the group's headline set. 'It was categorically one of the most horrendous professional discussions I've ever had,' she said. 'I cannot express clearly enough that I wanted Bob Vylan to perform at our festival. But this was not our decision.' According to Jackson-Smith, Radar was caught between behind-the-scenes conversations involving the venue, its co-owners AMG and Live Nation, and local authorities. The decision to drop Bob Vylan was presented as an ultimatum: either cancel the band's appearance or risk losing the entire Saturday program. 'There was not an option for Bob Vylan to step on stage on Saturday; that became apparent at the beginning of the week,' Jackson-Smith explained. 'If we continued with Bob Vylan as our headliner, we wouldn't have the festival happening on Saturday.' The festival, which runs July 4-6 at Manchester's O2 Victoria Warehouse, is independently operated by Jackson-Smith and co-founder Joe James. Canceling the band prevented what she described as a 'precarious situation' that could have impacted 41 other acts and the viability of the event itself. Adding to the complexity, Bob Vylan's agency dropped the band in the wake of the Glastonbury controversy, forcing Jackson-Smith to have a direct conversation with the group about their removal. 'It was horrific as a conversation,' she said. 'Bob Vylan knew that we didn't want to pull them.' In response, Bob Vylan posted on social media: 'Silence is not an option. We will be fine, the people of Palestine are hurting. Manchester, we will be back.' The Glastonbury performance continues to ripple across the industry. Alongside being dropped from Radar, Bob Vylan has reportedly been removed from the Kave Festival in France and a Gogol Bordello support slot in Cologne. Their US visas have also been revoked, and they are under criminal investigation in connection to the remarks. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy criticized the BBC for airing the performance, calling it 'a problem of leadership,' while US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau described Bob Vylan's remarks as 'a hateful tirade.' In a follow-up statement, Bob Vylan said they are 'not for the death of Jews or Arabs or any other race or group' and called for 'the dismantling of a violent military machine.' Radar Festival has yet to announce a replacement headliner for Saturday. Jackson-Smith confirmed efforts are underway but acknowledged the difficulty of securing a last-minute act. 'We might end up with someone that has no discernible political opinion at this point because if they're free and they can play on Saturday, maybe that's the only criteria,' she said. Radar Festival told Billboard they will be making no further comment on the matter. The festival runs July 4-6 at Manchester's O2 Victoria Warehouse.
