Olivia Rodrigo’s Glastonbury set doubles as date night with Netflix heartthrob

Glastonbury Festival was buzzing with excitement this weekend—not just for the music, but for the festival’s most-watched couple: Olivia Rodrigo and her boyfriend, British actor Louis Partridge. Rodrigo, 22, headlined the legendary Pyramid Stage on Sunday night, but before taking the spotlight, she was spotted living her best festival life with Partridge, sending fans and social media into a frenzy.

The “drivers license” singer didn’t let the pressure of her headline slot keep her from enjoying the festival. On Saturday, Rodrigo was seen perched on Partridge’s shoulders, belting out Pulp’s “Common People” during the band’s surprise set—a moment captured by festival-goers and even radio DJ Greg James, who playfully pointed her out in the crowd. The couple’s festival antics didn’t stop there: they were also seen mingling with Glasto royalty Alexa Chung, cementing their status as the event’s coolest couple.

Louis Partridge, also 22, is best known for his breakout roles in Netflix’s “Enola Holmes” films alongside Millie Bobby Brown, as well as parts in “Paddington 2,” “Pan,” and the FX miniseries “Pistol.” He’s currently filming the third “Enola Holmes” movie and recently starred in the miniseries “Disclaimer” with Cate Blanchett and Kevin Kline.


Rodrigo and Partridge have been dating since late 2023, first making headlines for their PDA-filled Halloween night in London, and later going red carpet official at the “Disclaimer” premiere in August 2024. Since then, the pair have been inseparable—spotted at Premier League matches, strolling through London and New York, and attending the Grammys together.

Rodrigo’s set at Glastonbury was both electric and personal. She dedicated her song “so american” to Partridge, telling the crowd she wrote it about falling for a boy from London and all their funny cultural differences.

“I also really love English boys. I wrote this next song when I was falling for a boy from London, and as we got to know each other, we discovered all these cultural differences. I would tease him about eating a jacket potato with beans, while he would joke about my distinctly American pronunciation—like saying Glaston-berry. So, I turned all of our little inside jokes into a song,” Rodrigo told festival-goers.
