Olivia Rodrigo Was Just Spotted Kissing Her Rumored Boyfriend At A Gas Station (2024)

There's no one who can make a fallback with an ex look as gratifying and fun as Olivia Rodrigo. There's also no one who has the ability to make people in their late thirties shed tears over a soul-crushing breakup that ended with someone getting their "driver's license."

If you haven't already streamed the former Disney star's sophom*ore album, GUTS, where have you been? The album, which dropped in September, has everything from soft-spoken ballads to grunge crescendos with lots of expletives. As a result, the "Vampire" singer ended up with an album that somehow topped her debut (at least that's what critics say).

Olivia's music has lots of references to the boys she's loved before. And while these second string losers (her words!) have nothing on her hard work and professional poise, I wouldn't blame you if you were a bit curious about the muses behind her music. Especially since she's recently been spotted with her new rumored boo Louis Partridge. Fan believe the two have been dating for months, but the most recent update on their romance really seals the deal, IMO.

Below, here's everything to know about Olivia's current relationship, plus a rundown of her past flings.

Louis Partridge (2023)

Back in October, Olivia was spotted with 20-year-old British actor Louis Partridge looking pretty cozy. The photos, which went viral on X, sparked the beginning of rumors that the two were dating. However, neither of them went on record to talk about their connection. Still, they were recently photographed kissing at a gas station in New York City, seemingly confirming what people were guessing all along.

"They looked super happy and really could not keep their hands off each other," a witness told E! News. "When he got out to pump gas she got out just to embrace him and kiss him." And in case you were curious, fans are already loving this 'ship!

Things seem pretty fresh for Olivia and Louis, but given their latest PDA-packed outing, I'm hopeful more updates are soon to come.

Zack Bia (2022)

If I had to guess, I'd say that some of Olivia's most cutting lyrics are about this ex. The "love is embarassing" singer reportedly dated him for the first few months of 2022, per People.

Zack is a 27-year-old music exec, DJ, and co-owner of Delilah, a restaurant and hotspot in L.A. The two were rarely seen in public together, but officially broke up in August 2022, per People. And, it doesn't seem like it ended well.

Fans speculate that Olivia's "Vampire" may be about Zack, as an insider told People it was not about another recent ex, Adam Faze.

Adam Faze (2021)

Olivia confirmed her romance with producer Adam Faze in July 2021, after they were photographed kissing in Los Angeles. But interested parties first spotted the couple out together a month earlier at the Space Jam 2 premiere.

“They were really cute together and weren't trying to hide their affection at all,” a source told Page Six. The pair met through friends in the industry, according to reports.

By the end of the year, Page Six reported Adam was moving from L.A. to New York, and noticed that Olivia unfollowed him in January 2022, per People.

Rodrigo then touched on break-up advice in an interview with British Vogue.

“Besides cutting off all contact, I think it’s important to not only forgive them but forgive yourself for letting everything happen,” she said. “That’s what I’ve learned.”

Joshua Bassett (2020)

Buckle up. This one is a doozy, and the infamous break up that introduced most of the world to Olivia Rodrigo. Yup. Olivia's smash hit "driver's license," is thought to be about Joshua. Although the singer has, of course, never confirmed it.

Olivia and Joshua played love interests in the hit Disney mockumentary High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, but it didn't end well. Olivia never confirmed their relationship, but eagle-eyed fans suspected the pair were dating. And, it’s believed that the single "drivers license" was about Joshua breaking up with Olivia to date another former Disney Channel star Sabrina Carpenter.

Exhibit A, the lyrics: “You’re probably with that blonde girl / Who always made me doubt She’s so much older than me / She’s everything I’m insecure about.”

And exhibit B, Joshua teaches Olivia how to drive on their IG stories, which have sadly been lost to time.

“I totally understand people’s curiosity with the specifics of who the song’s about and what it’s about, but to me, that’s really the least important part of the song. It’s resonating with people because of how emotional it is, and I think everything else is not important,” Olivia said, though she didn’t explicitly say who the song was about.

After Olivia popped off, the other two players in this teenage triad released their own songs: "Skin" by Sabrina and Joshua’s "Lie Lie Lie" and "Only a Matter of Time."

Again, all parties denied their songs seemingly written about the same love triangle were about each other. And yet...take a look at Joshua’s "Only a Matter of Time" lyrics, which I present as Exhibit C: "Time to tell the world that you've been lyin' on my name / Doin' what you want and think you're gonna get away."

"I'm sure that you're hurting inside / But why would you makе your pain mine? / You're makin' me pay for your crimes."

"You can't tear me down and act like I will just forget."

"You can say what you like / Doesn't mean that you're right / Are you glad you got that out? / Do you feel better now?"

Yeah. There was a lot of drama. But, these ex-lovers have left the drama and angst in the past. They recently reunited at the High School Musical: The Musical: The Series season 3 premiere and posed for photos together. And they defs look amicable.

Fans were shocked by the casual reunion. “Never in a million f*cking years would i have predicted an olivia rodrigo and joshua bassett pic together,” one user tweeted, per Page Six.

Welp. Here it is:

During promo for GUTS, Olivia shared that the experience of the Internet blowing up over the Olivia/Joshua/Sabrina love triangle was extremely overwhelming.

"I feel like last time there was so much weird media sh*t, and I had no idea how to deal with any of it," she told Interview Magazine. "Literally, it was the first song out of the gate and all of that sh*t happened. I felt so ill-equipped."

Since, she's learned to be even more tight lipped when it comes to chatting about her dating life, and her song inspirations.

“I never want to say who any of my songs are about," she told The Guardian in 2023. "I’ve never done that before in my career and probably won’t. I think it’s better to not pigeonhole a song to being about this one thing.”

Even still, some fans speculate "bad idea, right?" is about Joshua...

Ethan Wacker (2018)

Ethan was, based on my very best internet sleuthing, Olivia’s first love. They met on the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark and started dating in July 2018, according to Hollywood Life.

They dated for about a year, until August 2019 when they each did an Instagram wipe out of each other...a sure sign of any breakup. While it was rumored "driver’s license" was about Ethan, he shot those down quickly.

“Nope, I treated her well,” he wrote on TikTok at the time, according to Hollywood Life.
