“Man I Need” singer and Grammy winner Olivia Dean, who gained international fame for her velvety vocals and romantic hits like “Dive” and “Reason To Stay”, has been stirring the rumour mills of late after she was spotted with Eddie Burns at Paris Fashion Week.
The couple, who have not confirmed their relationship status, were also seen together at Wimbledon last July. Just last week in Paris, the pair were spotted enjoying a night out as they left Hôtel Costes hand in hand.
Here’s everything to know about Olivia Dean’s rumoured boyfriend, Eddie Burns.

Eddie Burns is a Chicago native and the son of classical trumpet player Stephen Burns, who founded the Fulcrum Point New Music Project.
Growing up in a musical family, Burns was reportedly inspired to learn the drums when he was just six years old – and has never looked back. He gradually found his way to playing drums for the R&B band The O’My’s and, through their management, started playing for American indie darling Clairo, who is known for her viral tracks like “Sofia” and “Flaming Hot Cheetos”.
