Olivia Rodrigo shares breakup advice with fans

Singer and actress Olivia Rodrigo, who reportedly dated Louis Partridge from 2023 until the end of 2025, has shared tips on how to get over a painful break-up.

When asked to share break-up advice, Rodrigo told Dazed: “Gosh, it’s like the blind leading the blind! I’m not, like, Mrs. Relationship. I’m not super sage and wise. But I do think that being with your friends is best. I don’t know what I would have done during hard times if I didn’t have great friends.”

The singer, who is reluctant to discuss her relationships publicly, believes a break-up can be a great learning opportunity. She said: “I also think going through a breakup can be a really awesome opportunity to redirect your life in a way that feels more aligned with who you are. That’s such a beautiful part of being in a relationship.”

“Even if it doesn’t last forever and you don’t get married, it’s so worthwhile. You never learn more about yourself through any other experience. It’s a very raw thing.” She added that break-ups become easier to deal with as one gets older, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The Vampire hitmaker said she has learned to take things less personally over time. Rodrigo said: “I think it gets easier. I don’t know—talk to me in two years and maybe I’ll have gone through the worst heartbreak ever. But I feel like heartbreak will never be as bad as it was when you were 17 years old. That breakup I went through when I was 17… oh my God, nothing will ever be that tough again. Hopefully! Maybe I’m speaking very naively. But I do feel that with every kind of rejection—whether in love, work, or friendship—I’m taking things less personally as I get older. As you grow and have more experiences, it starts to feel okay.”
