Are Billie Eilish and Jesse Rutherford Dating?
Jesse and Billie briefly dated from late 2022 until news of their split broke in May 2023. Not much was known about their time together as the duo kept things private, save for a few red carpet moments.
Previously, Billie spoke about wanting to keep her relationships out of the public eye while speaking to Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp in September 2020.
“I definitely want to keep [relationships] private. I’ve had relationships and kept them private, and even the ones that I’ve had, with the tiny amount that I’ve let the world see, I regret,” she explained. “I think about the people that have made their relationships OD public, and then they break up, and it’s like, ‘What if it goes bad?’ Then everyone has this whole opinion on your relationship that they have no idea about. It’s not something I’m interested in.”
Prior to Jesse, Billie was dating Matthew Tyler Vorce in 2021. Matthew confirmed their breakup in May 2022.
