Doja Cat sparked engagement rumors after being seen with a ring on her left hand during her performance at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas on September 21, 2024. The rumors were fueled by fans speculating about a possible engagement with Stranger Things actor Joseph Quinn, after the two were spotted together last month. However, Doja Cat swiftly responded to the rumors on her social media, clarifying the situation.
Doja Cat Denies Engagement
Following the buzz surrounding her ring, Doja Cat, born Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, took to her X (formerly Twitter) account to set the record straight. In a now-deleted tweet, the 28-year-old singer wrote, “No, I’m not engaged it’s a David Yurman ring with no rocks in it.” Despite the tweet being removed shortly after it was posted, it circulated widely online, calming speculation about her relationship status.
The rumors began when a video from the festival showed Doja Cat flashing her ring to the crowd during her performance of Agora Hills. The pop star briefly paused to showcase the ring on her left hand as she sang the lyrics, “Rub it in their face, put a rock on her hand.” Fans quickly noticed the gesture, leading to assumptions that the artist was hinting at an engagement with Joseph Quinn.
Relationship with Joseph Quinn
The engagement rumors came on the heels of Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn being spotted together in public several times over the past month. In August 2024, the pair were seen enjoying a night out at Dingwalls in Camden, London. The sighting, first reported by celebrity blog DeuxMoi, showed the couple in a cozy atmosphere, sparking talks of a relationship between the Say So singer and the Stranger Things star. Additional reports mentioned the two were also seen at the Coach & Horses pub in Soho, further fueling interest in their relationship.
Their relationship first attracted public attention back in 2022 when Doja Cat expressed her interest in Quinn through his Stranger Things co-star Noah Schnapp. At the time, she reached out to Schnapp on social media, asking to be introduced to Quinn, who played Eddie Munson in the hit series. The interaction quickly became public when Schnapp shared their private conversation on TikTok. This move led to a brief fallout between Doja and Schnapp, with the singer calling the actor “socially unaware” and expressing frustration over the leaked conversation. Despite the incident, Schnapp later apologized, and both parties confirmed there were no lingering hard feelings.
Public Reactions and Clarifications
Doja Cat’s clarification about the ring seems to have quieted much of the speculation, though the brief online frenzy underscored the growing interest in her personal life. Her relationship with Joseph Quinn has remained a topic of discussion, but no official statement has been made by either party confirming the status of their relationship.
Though the singer’s deleted tweet was short-lived, it served its purpose, with many fans acknowledging that the ring was simply a piece of jewelry and not an engagement symbol. Doja Cat has maintained her usual enigmatic stance on her private life, often addressing rumors directly when necessary but largely keeping personal matters under wraps.
As of now, the singer has not commented further on her relationship with Joseph Quinn, and it remains to be seen if the two will share more about their connection in the future. The buzz around their public outings and her playful references during performances ensures that fans will continue to follow any developments closely.
