Olivia Rodrigo wishes this discourse would drop dead.
Nearly three months after the “Stupid Song” singer stepped out with Julian Croonenberghs, a finance associate, she addressed the speculation of her relationship status and the backlash she received for the romance.
“It’s so hard and kind of sad, especially because relationships are supposed to be something private,” Rodrigo told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published Oct. 7. “Sometimes you’re out with a guy who’s not your boyfriend, and suddenly the internet’s like, ‘They’re married, blah, blah, blah.”
In addition to Croonenberghs, the 23-year-old also raised eyebrows with an outing alongside Geese singer Cameron Winter in April. Winter, for his part, told Rolling Stone last month that the duo simply got together to discuss “the Founding Fathers,” quipping, “It’s a rich topic.”
But many of Rodrigo’s fans considered her summer fling with Croonenberghs more serious, especially after they stepped out in July for a PDA-filled date at a public Brooklyn park after several low-key outings in June.
