8 New Celebrity Couples Set to Have a Special First Valentine’s Day
Love is in the air! Today is Valentine’s Day, which means couples will be proclaiming their love with chocolate, flowers, and all variety of grand, romantic gestures. In the land of celebrity, it will also be the first holiday that many new celebrity couples spend together. The pressure to have a fabulous first Valentine’s Day this year is on.
These new celebrity couples range from high-profile (the Internet lost their minds when Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde made it official) to discreet (as of now, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are still rumored to be a couple, but they have been photographed together recently). Whatever the case, however, one thing is already clear: they all have a distinctive couple style going on. Take Katie Holmes and Emilio Vitolo Jr., for instance, who have been spotted on numerous occasions out in New York City wearing complementary dressy outfits (they do New Yorker style like no one else).
Below, in honor of the Day of Love, we highlighted eight new famous duos—with all the info on how long they’ve been dating, what their signature couple style is, and how we imagine they’re spending the holiday today.

Began dating in: Roughly January 2021, when they were first spotted holding hands at a wedding.
Signature couple style: Harry Styles is a fashion icon in his own right with his penchant for ’70s flares, Gucci suits, and kitschy sweaters. Combined with Olivia Wilde’s playful, colorful fashion sensibility? It’s a match made in heaven.
Their imagined Valentine’s Day plans: Harry serenades her with an acoustic song in a dark room flooded with rose petals and candles flickering.

Began dating in: Unclear, but reportedly since November 2020. They have known each other for much longer than that, though, having collaborated on music in the past.
Signature couple style: Both Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are known for their high-fashion wardrobe. Both have designers constantly begging to dress them. We foresee a lot of clothing swaps in their future.
Their imagined Valentine’s Day plans: A$AP Rocky flies to Rihanna’s native Barbados and the two enjoy a romantic, quiet weekend by the beach—away from the paparazzi, who have sparsely caught them together.

Began dating in: March 2020, while filming Midnight in the Switchgrass. They are now engaged.
Signature couple style: Edgy and spunky. MGK leans into a rockstar vibe with loud-printed shirts, distressed jeans, or colorful suiting. Fox matches that energy with biker jackets or rocker tees. They’re Hollywood’s grungiest new couple.
Their imagined Valentine’s Day plans: We don’t predict anything traditional about their Valentine’s Day. Perhaps they watch a scary movie (Fox’s Jennifer’s Body? Underrated).
4/8Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez
Began dating in: Sometime in early 2020, and they announced their engagement just before the Christmas holiday.
Signature couple style: This is possibly the most low-key couple on the list. We’ve never seen them in public together. They keep things private. But their Instagram posts together prove they have a shared love of cozy clothes—a Grande staple.
Their imagined Valentine’s Day plans: They will keep things low key, just like their relationship. Perhaps discussing wedding plans over a nice glass of Merlot—wedding bells are in their future, after all.

Began dating in: Around November 2020, though they only went Insta-public in January of this year with a series of artful photos.
Signature couple style: Since this is a brand-new couple, the moments have been few and far in between—however, they recently did date night style looking like a true A-list couple in sleek suiting and the perfect LBD.
Their imagined Valentine’s Day plans: We foresee a getaway in their Valentine’s Day plans. On Jordan’s Instagram, they’ve taken photos together in both snowy and tropical settings this year. Perhaps a wintery Airbnb for the weekend?
