The digital community can collectively rejoice they were accurate on this one – RosalĂa was in a same-sex relationship before her engagement. Today (April 2), artist Hunter Schafer confirmed she formerly had a romantic entanglement with the Spanish sensation.
The most well-known partnership RosalĂa had was the one with Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro. In September 2021, the vibrant music pair announced they were a couple. Following the release of their joint EP and their announcement of impending nuptials, news of RosalĂa and Rauw parting ways surfaced in July 2023. Now, the rumors about the Motomami dating the Euphoria artist have been publicly acknowledged.
Schafer is a transgender artist recognized for her roles in Euphoria and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. In a conversation with GQ, Schafer revealed details about her five-month relationship with RosalĂa back in 2019. She mentioned discussing the decision to reveal this private aspect with the musician. Despite Schafer and RosalĂa later going their separate ways romantically, they have maintained a strong friendship.
“I share deeply significant connections with individuals I was once romantically involved with,” Schafer stated. “[RosalĂa] is like family no matter the circumstances.”
It’s important to note that RosalĂa has not addressed this matter herself or specified her sexual orientation. Music critic Suzy Exposito discussed her 2022 Los Angeles Times interview with RosalĂa, during which she hinted at her affiliation with the LGBTQ+ community. The topic arose when RosalĂa was asked about working with LGBTQ+ artists such as Arca, Rita Indiana, and Tokischa.
“I consider myself part of this community,” RosalĂa articulated. “Most of my closest companions belong to this community. It integrates seamlessly with my life.”
Lately, RosalĂa was romantically linked with The Bear actor Jeremy Allen White. Her recent Instagram posts suggest she is currently dedicated to creating new music.
