Are Rosalía and Hunter Schafer dating?

Spanish singer-songwriter Rosalía has been steadily growing into one of today’s most influential pop artists. As a result, her dating life has come under the microscope – as always tends to happen with celebrities. As her circle grew, other equally popular figures from her generation started getting linked either platonically or romantically with the Motomami singer.

One of those connections was Euphoria and The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes‘ Hunter Schafer. The two were frequently seen together in 2019, as they attended industry events like fashion shows and awards ceremonies. At that year’s Billboard Women in Music gala, Rosalía brought Hunter along as her date, and during her acceptance speech for the Rising Star award, the musician thanked the actress for joining her and professed her love for her.

Their relationship, whether romantic or otherwise, eventually fizzled out, but in 2023 it was revived by fans of Rosalía on social media, who claimed her June single “Tuya” was about Hunter. In a short clip promoting the song, the Spanish songstress seemed to be using female pronouns in the lyrics, instantly making listeners wonder who she could be talking about.

The leading theory was that Rosalía was referring to the actress and their short alleged fling from 2019, right before the musician met her current fiancé, Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro. Neither Rosalía nor Hunter have ever claimed to have been together as anything more than friends, and the rumors stem solely from fan theories on platforms like Twitter.

When “Tuya” finally came out on June 9, it became less clear whether the song was about a woman or fans had misheard the lyrics on that initial promotional snippet. According to Genius, Rosalía sings “Solo esta noche soy tuya, tuya. Solo esta noche ere’ mío, mío,” which translates to “Just for tonight, I’m yours. Just for tonight, you’re mine.” In Spanish, the word “mine” can have both female and male forms, and the singer uses the latter in her song.

There are other male nouns all over the lyrics to “Tuya,” indicating listeners might have jumped the gun by assuming the track was about a woman. However, there are sections of the song where it does sound like Rosalía is saying “mía” (the female form of “mine”).
