Turner is 33 years old.
Born on February 15, 1990 in London, England, Turner is an Aquarius. Lipa’s birthday is on August 22, 1995, making her 29 years old and a Leo. Aquarius and Leo typically aren’t the most compatible of signs, but there are always exceptions. The AstroTwins wrote for ELLE.com, 'Leo is needy, demanding constant attention, but cool-headed Aquarius feels smothered by too much affection and togetherness. Aquarius will listen patiently to Leo’s dramas, but only to a point. Leo must keep a stable of supportive friends on hand, and not turn the relationship into an exhausting soap opera script.'
Despite their opposite signs, Lipa and Turner seem to be quite happy together. It seems like their relationship may defy all astrological odds.
