The September 2025 Interview: Doja Cat Addresses the Joseph Quinn Rumors
In what is arguably the most recent and definitive piece of information regarding her dating status, Doja Cat addressed the Joseph Quinn speculation in a September 2025 profile interview with *The New York Times*.
While discussing her new album, *Vie*, the journalist brought up the persistent rumors linking her to the *Stranger Things* star. Doja Cat, in her typical fashion of blending honesty with playful ambiguity, did not explicitly confirm or deny the relationship. Instead, she offered a cryptic but telling comment, stating that she both "loves men" and loves "bullying men." This response, while not a direct confirmation, was taken by many as a subtle acknowledgment of the relationship, suggesting a dynamic that is both affectionate and filled with her signature mischievous energy.
The intensity of the relationship rumors was further fueled by an appearance at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Festival, where Doja Cat was seen flashing a large ring on *that* finger during her performance of "Agora Hills," immediately sparking engagement rumors with Quinn. While the engagement remains unverified, the public displays and her recent comments show that the relationship with Joseph Quinn is the most current and talked-about chapter in her personal life.
A Deep Dive into Doja Cat's Controversial Dating History
Before the Joseph Quinn rumors took hold, Doja Cat's dating life was defined by two significant relationships: one that was public and adored, and another that generated massive public controversy and fan backlash.
The Controversial Pairing with J. Cyrus (2022–2023)
One of Doja Cat's most scrutinized and controversial rumored relationships was with comedian and former Twitch streamer Jeffrey "J." Cyrus. The two first sparked romance rumors in November 2022, and their relationship became a major point of contention among her fanbase.
- The Controversy: J. Cyrus faced resurfaced allegations of emotional abuse and grooming from his past interactions with his Twitch followers. Furthermore, his past included controversies such as alleged racist tweets.
- Doja's Defense: Despite the serious allegations, Doja Cat publicly defended her rumored boyfriend and the relationship, leading to significant fan criticism. She took to social media to push back against the backlash, famously telling her fans that she would date who she wanted.
- Relationship Status: While neither party officially confirmed a breakup, the intensity of the Joseph Quinn rumors in late 2024 and 2025, combined with Doja's shift in focus to her album *Vie*, suggests the relationship with J. Cyrus has concluded, or at least shifted entirely out of the public eye.
The Confirmed Public Romance with Jawny (2019–2020)
Doja Cat’s only officially confirmed public relationship since her rise to fame was with indie artist Jawny, formerly known as Johnny Utah. This relationship was notably public and affectionate, often featuring the two in playful Instagram Live streams.

- Bree Runway: Rumors circulated about a relationship with the British rapper in 2021.
- Guram Gvasalia: The creative director of Vetements was also listed as a rumored partner at one point.
- Noah Schnapp Drama: While not a romantic partner, the viral incident involving *Stranger Things* actor Noah Schnapp in 2022 generated massive headlines. Doja Cat slid into his DMs to ask him to connect her with Joseph Quinn, who was his co-star, an event that ironically foreshadowed the current dating rumors.
From a confirmed romance with Jawny to the tumultuous speculation surrounding J. Cyrus, and now the persistent, high-profile rumors with Joseph Quinn, Doja Cat’s love life mirrors her career: unpredictable, captivating, and always generating headlines.
