It’s no surprise that people are fascinated by Doja Cat's personal life after she burst onto the music scene with her viral hit “Mooo!” in 2018. Since then, she’s been thriving in the industry, all while sparking plenty of controversy with her questionable album covers and daring tattoo choices.
This might explain why so many people are eager to know who Doja is dating right now. Here’s the scoop on her dating history, including her past relationship with Joji (aka George Kusunoki Miller), and who she’s getting cozy with these days.
Who is Doja Cat dating now?
After gossip Instagram account Deuxmoi shared a photo on Aug. 18, 2024, of Doja and Joseph Quinn getting cozy at Dingwalls Dancehall in London, fans quickly assumed they were dating. Although neither has officially confirmed a relationship, they were also spotted holding hands while strolling through London. And just as the video wrapped up, Joseph’s hand appeared to slip a little lower on her back end (if you catch our drift).
After the photo and video dropped, fans quickly took to the comments to challenge the idea that Doja manifested a relationship with Joseph. Back in May 2022, Doja tweeted in a now-deleted post, “Joseph Quinn fine as s--t.” She also expressed a desire to be put in contact with Joseph and questioned whether he was single at the time. Fast forward to 2024, and the two are packing on the PDA in public!
Here’s a breakdown of Doja Cat's dating history — including rumors.
The only public relationship Doja Cat's had since becoming famous is the one she shared with Johnny Utah. He’s also known as JAWNY, and just like Doja, he’s also a musician. The two linked up in 2019 for the first time and stayed together until February 2020. They described the start of their relationship in an adorable Instagram live video that’s now been saved as a permanent YouTube archived clip.
It turns out they were flirting via their Instagram comment sections until finally sliding into each other’s DMs. Doja revealed she wasn’t a big fan of JAWNY’s song “Honey Pie" at first, but she did like the way he moved. Instagram flirtations resulted in a real-life relationship, but unfortunately, it didn’t last very long. Doja went on Instagram live to discuss the breakup with her fans and followers after it all fell apart.
She revealed that there wasn’t any drama or weirdness going on between them and that they still remained on good terms with each other post-split. After that, rumors about Doja and French Montana sparked in October 2020. The reason why? They were spotted getting cozy on a boat together, but it turns out rumors of a fling were completely false from the jump. Doja revealed they were collaborating on a song together and spending time in such close proximity for business purposes only.
After Doja was featured in an episode of Lil Dicky's hit show Dave, fans began wondering if they were romantically linked in real life too. They might have portrayed potential love interests in an episode of the second season of the show, but it turns out they’re really nothing more than platonic friends.
Did Doja Cat date Bree Runway?
By the summer of 2021, all talks of Doja reconciling with JAWNY disappeared, and all gossip about Doja dating Lil Dicky vanished — but rumors about her and a fellow female rapper Bree Runway started making the rounds. Doja and Bree were spotted hanging out together at a party hosted by Drake, causing the Internet to go into a frenzy.
They posted a bunch of cute pictures together online, but it’s truly the captions that led everyone to believe something romantic was going on. Bree posted, “You know I’m crazy about my woman! Love you, Doja Cat. Best night ever." Doja wrote in a now deleted-post, “I have a girlfriend and I’m going public: Bree Runway,” with a smirking face emoji. However, the rumors were never addressed further, and speculation about their supposed relationship died down pretty quickly.
In February 2022, Doja Cat sparked dating rumors with Joji.
Doja Cat first took a liking toward musician and YouTube comedian Joji back in 2015, according to a Redditor named rajmahchawal. In February 2022, Doja abruptly ended an Instagram Live after a mystery man accidentally walked in on her mid-recording.
Fans began trying to identify him by his voice, and many believed this mystery man to be Joji himself.
While he and Doja performed at the 2022 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, confirmation of a relationship between the two never emerged.
