    Dua Lipa has paid a glowing birthday tribute to Anwar Hadid on social media

    The 25-year-old pop star has taken to Instagram to lavish her boyfriend with praise after he celebrated his 22nd birthday on Tuesday (22.06.21)


    Alongside a series of throwback snaps of the couple and their beloved dog Dexter, Dua wrote on the photo-sharing platform: "Happy Birthday Baby @anwarspc [heart emoji] another lap around the sun ~ you make my world so much better!! I’m lucky to love you and be loved by you. DEXTER IS SO LUCKY TOO N LOVES U SO MUCH!!! can’t wait to celebrate youuuu today (sic)"

    The London-born singer and Anwar - who is the brother of models Gigi and Bella Hadid - have been dating since 2019.

    But Dua previously admitted she's made a conscious decision to keep their romance "quite private".

    She explained: "We have all these incredible memories and experiences, and if there's something that we want to share together, then OK that's fun.

    "But at the same time, we're quite private - we'll only show you as much as we want you to see."

    The 'Break My Heart' hitmaker revealed she's still trying to "find the right balance" between sharing things with her fans and keeping her romance private.

    Dua is determined to not let other people's opinions undermine her own happiness.

    She said: "It's a little bit of give and take, trying to find the right balance of being so excited and being in love, and wanting to share that with the people around me, but at the same time not wanting to put too much out there.

    "I want to be able to just be happy in this relationship without having other people's opinions."
