Lana has been romantically linked to several people over the last few years. The music sensation, who tends to maintain a low profile about her romantic liaisons, has been linked to several creative figures, encompassing an array of musicians and photographers. Some notable names include Barrie-James O'Neill, Francesco Carrozzini, G-Eazy, Clayton Johnson, and Jack Donoghue.

She also dated Sean Larkin, a retired police sergeant turned reality TV star, for six months before the couple separated in 2020 due to "busy schedules." 

Sean, who appeared on A&E’s reality show Live PD and co-hosts the podcast Coptales and Cocktails, evidently left an indelible mark on the singer's heart as its rumored many of her songs have been about him.

Lana del Rey alluded to her ex

In the run-up to her upcoming album, Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, Lana deployed a billboard in her ex-boyfriend's hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Capturing a photo with the billboard, Lana shared on her reportedly private Instagram account: "There’s only one and it’s in Tulsa," and concluded with the cryptic words, "It's. Personal." 

The act sparked widespread admiration from fans who lauded the singer for her unique display of "pettiness."

Twitter was soon flooded with fans praising Lana's tactics,: "lana del rey putting up just one billboard for her album in her ex boyfriends city and then posting about it is so lana del rey," tweeted one fan.

Another fan drew parallels with Taylor Swift's recent collaboration with Lana Del Rey on Swift's Midnights album.

In a revealing interview with W magazine in May, the Grammy-nominated singer described her new music as "angry" and "conversational," shedding light on her creative process.

"I’ve been practicing meditative automatic singing, where I don’t filter anything. I’ll just sing whatever comes to mind into my Voice Notes app," she explained. 

Lana elaborated on how she collaborates with composer, Drew Erickson, to create an orchestral backing to her raw, unfiltered voice notes.

Further delving into her creative process, Lana stated: "For this new music, there’s none of that at all. It’s more just like: I’m angry. The songs are very conversational."
