Romain is the ‘nepo baby‘ of Costa-Gavras, the acclaimed Greco-French director of such classic leftist films as Z and State Of Siege.

Reports began circulating in December that Dua and Romain, 42, had split after eight months on dating.

She said: ‘I’ve had breakups in my life where I felt like the only kind of breakup you could have was when things just ended really badly. Things ending in a nice way was such a new thing.… It taught me a lot.’

Before Romain, Dua had a two year relationship with Anwar Hadid, 24.

Earlier this month, Dua sent tongues wagging when she was pictured slow-dancing with actor Callum, 33, in Los Angeles.

Callum was briefly linked last year to English model Mathilda Lowther, granddaughter of the 7th Earl of Lonsdale.

Before that, he spent four years involved with Vanessa Kirby, who shot to international fame as Princess Margaret on the first two seasons of The Crown.

‘It’s new, but they’re mad about each other,’ an insider told Page Six ‘She was at the premiere to support him.’

Of dating, Dua said: ‘I think overall, is just a little confusing. It’s either through friends of friends or people you trust where you can meet new people, because [dating] is not really so straightforward when you are, I guess, a public person.

Lyrics in her new album also reflect her turbulent love life.

These include: ‘We call it love but hate it here/Did we really mean it when we said forever?’ and ‘I must have loved you more than I ever knew.… I’m not mad/I’m not hurt/You got everything you deserve.’

Dua told Rolling Stone: ‘When you have a feeling like that one, you feel really grown because you’re like, “Oh, whoa, I’m such an evolved human being that I can see my ex move on and feel good about it”.
