Love Under Wraps: Lana Del Rey Reportedly Engaged to Music Manager Evan Winiker
It’s official, folks—Lana Del Rey is off the market! The celebrated “Candy Necklace” singer has reportedly been keeping her relationship with music manager and musician Evan Winiker low profile, but sources now claim that the two are engaged to be married.
According to Billboard, Del Rey and Winiker have been dating for some time now and have been spotted together a few times. The 37-year-old songstress has remained mum about the relationship, both in public and online, but rumors began to swirl after she was spotted sporting a big diamond ring at the Billboard Women in Music Awards earlier this month.
So who is Evan Winiker, the lucky man who stole Lana’s heart? Winiker is a managing partner at Range Media and manages rising artists like Disco Biscuits, MAX, and Daya. But that’s not all—he’s also a musician himself, reportedly a former member of a band called Steel Train alongside songwriter-producer Jack Antonoff.
Speaking of Antonoff, he’s collaborated on several of Del Rey’s productions, including her critically acclaimed albums “Norman F–king Rockwell” and “Chemtrails Over The Country Club“. Perhaps he played a role in introducing the singer to her new beau?
Del Rey’s previous romantic relationships include a who’s who of musicians and industry insiders, including Scottish singer-songwriter Barrie-James O’Neill Francesco Carrozzini, a renowned Italian photographer, and G-Eazy, a rising rapper. She has also dated officer Sean “Sticks” Larkin and was last linked to musician Jack Donaghue before reportedly getting together with Winiker.
Despite her numerous high-profile relationships, Del Rey has been candid about her desire for companionship. In a 2015 interview with Harper’s Bazaar, she revealed, “For someone like me – and it’s not a codependent thing – I just like having someone there. I’ve been alone, and that’s fine. But I like to come home and have someone there.”
Well, it looks like she’s found that “someone” in Winiker. The couple has yet to confirm the engagement rumors, but fans are already buzzing about the possibility of a Lana Del Rey wedding in the near future.
Of course, with Del Rey being such a private person, we may not get many details about the nuptials—but that won’t stop us from speculating. Will the ceremony be a low-key affair, or will Lana go all out with a star-studded bash? Will her famous exes be in attendance? And perhaps most importantly, what will she wear?
Knowing Lana, we can expect something glamorous and a little bit retro, with maybe a touch of edginess thrown in. And who knows—maybe we’ll even get a new album inspired by her upcoming nuptials. Hey, a fan can dream, right?
