In a recent interview, Dua Lipa was asked about having children with her husband, Callum Turner. “I don’t want kids right now, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon,” she said. “I’m at the peak of my career. Everything I’ve worked for is happening now, and I’m not... ready to step away from that. I also don’t want kids to ruin my shape I’ve worked extremely hard on my body and the way I present myself on stage.” When asked if she ever sees herself becoming a mother, she was clear: “If I ever do have children, I’d rather adopt. That feels like the better path for me. There are so many kids who already need a home.” On how Callum feels about her decision, Dua replied without hesitation: “He respects me. He respects my decision completely. He knows my career comes first, and he’s never made me feel like I owe him a different answer. That’s one of the reasons this works.”show more

Working hard on your body and not wanting pregnancy to change that is a valid reason. Full stop. She doesn’t owe anyone biological kids to prove she’s “complete.”

Exactly. Her body, her career, her choice. Wanting to protect what she’s built isn’t shallow — it’s intentional. She doesn’t owe anyone a pregnancy to be “enough.”

I’d rather adopt” hits different when she says it this clearly. She’s not rejecting motherhood — she’s choosing the version that aligns with her life and values. More of this honesty, please.

I’d rather adopt” hits different when she says it this clearly. She’s not rejecting motherhood — she’s choosing the version that actually fits her life and values. More of this honesty, please.

The way she said “he respects me” without hesitation says everything. That’s the standard. No silent resentment, no “you’ll change your mind” pressure. Just real partnership.

Respect to Dua for being clear about prioritizing her career and body autonomy right now, and for preferring adoption if she ever becomes a mother. Callum supporting that decision without pressure is exactly the kind of partnership that makes a relationship work.

This. Clear priorities, body autonomy, and a partner who doesn’t try to negotiate them away. That’s the foundation of a real relationship.

The video has nothing to do with what is said the the post 😭

This is the energy. Career first, body autonomy first, no pressure to follow a timeline that isn’t hers. Respect to Callum for actually supporting that instead of making it about him.

This right here. No timeline pressure, no guilt, just clear boundaries and a partner who respects them. That’s how it should be.

That’s is NOT what she said in the video and she’s never said this in an interview

where’s this part of the interview on video?? how do we know you’re not making this up?

where is this interview because the video attached is about books

Where do you people come up with this nonsense?? She never said that

Honestly, I respect her being upfront about her priorities. Having children is a huge personal decision, and it’s good that she and Callum can communicate openly and respect each other’s choices. The adoption part is also a thoughtful perspective. ❤️

Real respect. Being this clear about your priorities and having a partner who doesn’t try to change them is rare. The adoption part especially shows she’s thought it through.

Peak career years + zero guilt about protecting them. That’s not selfish, that’s self-aware. Glad she’s with someone who gets it.

Exactly this. Protecting the years you’ve worked hard for isn’t selfish, it’s clarity. And having a partner who actually respects that instead of fighting it? Rare and valuable

Whole bunch of bots in this comment section. Ain’t no way we praising her for choosing her career over a family. And also wanting to adopt to avoid ruining her body? Talk about SELFISH 😭😭🤮🤮

That’s not what she said

Choosing to focus on her career and not have kids right now is completely valid. But that quote needs a real source before I’d believe it.

Feminism is the end of humanity. A big factor why birth rates are so low in the west, but so high in countries in Asia.

Why be in a relationship if you have no plans in having children 😔

She never said this. Obviously she have them when she ready and it not anyone business

Esto es falso, ella no ha declarado nada de esto. Porque se inventan las cosas?

Er kann noch mit 80 Kinder bekommen, mit einer jungen Frau. Also ist es ihm jetzt natürlich egal. Diese Egoistin sollte keine Kinder bekommen. Adoptiere einen Hund.

So she thinks it's best to adopt a child than give birth to one? Sigh 💔 This won't go well

Why are we still asking this question in the year 2026, especially for someone you could ask interesting, inciteful questions to. I’m sure her husband isn’t asked as much as she is, if at all.

I think this is made up bullshit but be it or not she's right lol

didn’t he just say in an interview he’s 36 & would like to have some kids? 🤣

Thank the gods 🙌

That man is using her….

She never said these things. These quotes are completely fabricated.

As a man, why would you even marry her then? What’s the point

Choosing not to have children—or considering adoption instead, is a deeply personal decision, and it’s good that she and her partner can respect each other’s choices without pressure.

Qué tiene que ver ese video??? Ahí no dice nada del texto

Well, she needs to fired her trainer because I see Moms with three or More kids that look waaaaaaay better than her. Also, more squats sister!

Ele não falou nada disso nesse vídeo

Dude cant have a kids.

Callum is in trouble @alpharivelino ❎️

Choosing not to have kids right now is completely personal. But that kids would ruin my shape quote? I’d definitely need the original interview before believing it.
