Chappell Roan Reveals She’s in a ‘Serious’ Relationship: ‘I’m Very in Love’
There’s nothing casual about Chappell Roan‘s current relationship status. While guesting on the new episode of Call Her Daddy posted Wednesday (March 26), the pop star revealed that she’s in a serious relationship, adding that she’s very much “in love” with her significant other.
Ironically, the subject of Roan’s attachment first came up as the Missouri native was advocating for the benefits of staying single. When host Alex Cooper then asked if Roan herself was flying solo these days, the musician revealed that she’s actually been dating someone for six months now.
“It’s serious,” Roan said. “I’m very in love, but I am pro-single. Everyone should be single … Find out for yourself if you can 100% be OK alone before you date. That’s what I found out. I had a great time when I was single, and I know that I’ll be OK, and now I have an awesome time that I’m with someone.”
Adding that a friend set them up — but ultimately, Roan was the one to make the first move — the “Pink Pony Club” vocalist went on to share that her partner is a rekindled flame from her past. “I haven’t dated someone since this all really, really blew up,” she said. “I’m dating the same person that I was dating before I got, like, blew up, so I’m not sure how I would date now.”
“I think it would actually be a nightmare,” the Grammy winner continued. “I think I would be so single right now because you’re terrified of their intentions. I’m scared. I don’t trust anyone. I just think in my head, I’m like, any new person that I’m texting, I’m like, ‘I’m assuming they will screenshot this and send it to someone else.'”
The interview marks the first time Roan has shared as much about her relationship status since finding global fame in the spring and summer of 2024 thanks to the combined momentum of Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hit “Good Luck, Babe!,” the steady climb of debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess and a whirlwind festival run marked by unprecedented crowd sizes. Roan recently dropped her first single since then: “The Giver,” which debuted at No. 5 on the Hot 100 and at No. 1 on the Hot Country Songs chart.
Amid her meteoric rise to superstardom, however, Roan says she has lost touch with her sexuality, despite it being a dominant part of her onstage persona. “Obviously, I’ve come into being more comfortable with saying I’m queer, with dating women, but I don’t know — something f–ked up my sexuality,” she told Cooper. “I think my nervous system is so fried that I can’t even feel flirtatious. It’s just too intense to even be sexual at all.”
“When there’s so much of you in the world that is exposed, then being sexual with someone is so vulnerable,” she added. “‘Cause the rest of your life is so vulnerable that it’s like … I want to save something. I just don’t wanna be that vulnerable with so many people.”
