October 8 marks International Lesbian Day—a global celebration of queer love, visibility, and the sapphics who make it all look so damn good. It’s a day for community, joy, and yes, scrolling through our feeds to swoon over the couples who remind us that sapphic love is thriving in every form!
From Hollywood ceremonies to viral TikTok engagements, 2025 has been a year of sapphic milestones. So, in honor of the day (and because we’re gay lovergirls), we’ve rounded up twelve of our favorite couples whose stories made us laugh, cry, and double-tap like crazy.
Paige Bueckers & Azzi Fudd
The basketball world’s sapphic sweethearts. Former UConn teammates turned power couple Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd made their relationship public this July—complete with a viral phone case reading “Paige Bueckers’ Girlfriend.” The two first bonded on the court, led their team to a national championship, and now cheer each other on in the WNBA and beyond. If “teammates to lovers” were a genre, they’d be the cover stars.
Kristen Stewart & Dylan Meyer
After years of keeping things delightfully low-key, Kristen Stewart and her longtime partner, screenwriter Dylan Meyer, officially tied the knot on April 20, 2025. The pair wed at home in Los Angeles, surrounded by close friends—including Ashley Benson and Brandon Davis—after grabbing their marriage license at a local courthouse. Stewart, who met Meyer on the set of American Ultra in 2019, once told Howard Stern, “I wanted to be proposed to…and she nailed it.” Celebrating Easter Sunday with a lesbian wedding? Love!
Ocean van Exel & Kennedy Cooper

Fashion, queerness, and bold energy personified. Dutch-Surinamese model Ocean van Exel and content creator Kennedy Cooper have been dating since 2022, blessing TikTok with their coordinated fits and soft energy. Whether it’s a fit check or a couples trend, they radiate the kind of queer joy that makes the internet a better place.
Hayley Kiyoko & Becca Tilley
After seven years of dating (and one iconic “For the Girls” music video reveal), pop star Hayley Kiyoko and former Bachelor contestant Becca Tilley officially became engaged earlier this year! Kiyoko proposed on the beach in July 2025, captioning her post: “My dream girl said yes to forever…” They’re the epitome of “slow burn, right person, right time.”
AnnabellaFit & Karina Gomez
If love could bench press, this couple would lift the world. Fitness trainer and influencer Annabella and Navy officer Karina Gomez went from long-distance DMs to a dreamy engagement this March after Gomez popped the question. They first connected on Instagram while Gomez was stationed overseas—proof that sometimes, a follow request really is fate.
Reneé Rapp & Towa Bird
The sapphic “it” couple of pop culture. Singer Reneé Rapp and British guitarist Towa Bird confirmed their romance at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty after meeting on Rapp’s Snow Hard Feelings tour. From onstage kisses to backstage PDA, their chemistry has become part of queer pop canon.
Jade Fione & Lily Massis
Fashion influencer Jade Fiona made waves when she came out as pansexual in a GRWM TikTok—confirming she and R&B artist Lily Massie made it official a week and a half after meeting each other. Classic sapphic speed-run. Now the NYC-based couple is giving us “it-girl x masc musician” realness, with Massie heading out on her first headline tour this fall.
Ludmilla & Brunna Gonçalves
Brazil’s reigning pop queen, Ludmilla, and her dancer wife, Brunna Gonçalves, are living their best married life—and just welcomed their first child this year. From Coachella performances to viral family photos, these two continue to give representation, rhythm, and radiant love.
Lily-Rose Depp & 070 Shake
Actress Lily-Rose Depp (who stays buttoned to the TOP) and rapper and singer, 070 Shake, have been publicly together since 2023, with Depp famously posting a kissing photo captioned “my crush.” Since then, their subtle social posts and low-key outings have been giving “cool-girl Parisian sapphic” energy—and we are so here for it.
Natasha Cloud & Isabelle Harrison
Basketball’s other sapphic power couple. WNBA stars Natasha Cloud and Isabelle Harrison, now teammates for the New York Liberty, have been together for about four years—and are thriving both on and off the court. Between their game-day looks and TikTok date nights, they’re redefining what sports romance looks like.
Eden & Jay Trevino
The viral Latina sapphic couple who broke the internet—and barriers. Eden and Jay’s traditional Oaxacan wedding became a symbol of queer pride in Mexico and beyond. Together, they co-host Preciosa Night, one of the biggest Latinx queer reggaeton parties in the U.S., and advocate for The Equality Act and inclusive family planning. Love, activism, rhythm—they do it all.
Jade Carey & Aimee Sinacola
Olympic gymnast Jade Carey introduced her girlfriend, Aimee Sinacola, to the world with a simple Instagram caption—“happy 🤍🔐✨💌.” The post showed the pair smiling with Carey’s gold medal, radiating joy and authenticity. Sinacola, a creative director at the University of Oregon, has been by Carey’s side through every flip, vault, and viral moment since.
