Dua Lipa has been awarded Kosovo citizenship.

The Levitating singer was born in London to Kosovar Albanian parents and was serenaded by a children's choir as she received the honour from Kosovar president Vjosa Osmani on Thursday (31.07.25).

The politician posted on social media platform X: "Welcome back home, Dua.

"Dua and Kosovo have always been inseparable. From the world's biggest stages to the hearts of millions, she's carried our story with strength, pride and grace. She's pushed boundaries, made history, and reminded the world that greatness begins with knowing who you are and where you come from."

The 29-year-old pop star previously had Albanian citizenship granted in 2022 - with the country's president Bajram Begaj describing her as a "simple girl" who has given "great pride" to the nation.

He said at the ceremony: "It is a special pleasure to welcome the great artist Dua Lipa today. I say great artist, but she is also a simple girl, who has given the greatest pride to us, Albania, Kosovo and wherever there are Albanians in the world. Albanian youth is an example and a source of inspiration for you and you have shown that dreams can be achieved by working harder. Tomorrow we celebrate the 110th anniversary of the declaration of independence and today the joint meeting of the Assembly of Albania and the Assembly of Kosovo took place.

"Although art is not related to politics, it brings all people together and with your art, you have brought us together in this jubilee year! On this occasion, I am pleased to grant you Albanian citizenship."

Meanwhile, Dua confirmed in June that she and her actor partner Callum Turner were engaged after months of speculation following an Instagram post last Christmas that featured her with a diamond ring on her wedding finger.

The Houdini hitmaker told Britain's Vogue magazine: "Yeah, we're engaged. It's very exciting."

Of her ring, Dua added: "I'm obsessed with it. It's so me. It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well."

The couple - who started dating in January 2024 - are yet to set a wedding date because of their hectic work schedules.

Dua said: "I want to finish my tour, Callum's shooting, so we're just enjoying this period.

"I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding, or dreamt about what kind of bride I would be.

"All of a sudden I'm like: 'Oh, what would I wear?'"
