Rapper Saweetie and Aston Villa's Jadon Sancho hard-launched their relationship on a romantic Paris getaway, first linked last summer via his lockscreen photo. Kuredu Island Resort & Spa promoted their Sangu Water Villas in the Maldives as ideal for romantic retreats or serenity.
- Rumors of a romance between Saweetie and Jadon Sancho began in January 2025, over a year before they confirmed their relationship. - The couple was spotted together on multiple occasions before their Paris trip, including a dinner date in Istanbul in November 2025 and at a tattoo parlor in Santa Monica where Sancho got Saweetie's middle name, Quiava, tattooed behind his ear. - Their public debut in Paris is part of a larger trend of celebrity couples choosing the French capital for romantic occasions; Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk also honeymooned there. - Paris's reputation as the "City of Love" is rooted in its association with the Romantic art movement and its frequent depiction as a romantic backdrop in literature and film. - The city's architecture, from iconic landmarks to charming side streets, and its cultural ambiance of art and music contribute to its romantic appeal for couples. - While Paris is a popular choice, other destinations frequently chosen by celebrity couples for romantic getaways include the Maldives, frequented by Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas, and various locations in Italy, popular with Hailey and Justin Bieber as well as Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker. - Other celebrity couples recently seen in Paris, often for Fashion Week, include Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble, as well as Beyoncé and Jay-Z. - The Maldives, where Kuredu Island Resort & Spa is located, is another top destination for celebrity couples, with John Legend and Chrissy Teigen having vacationed there.
