Billie Eilish 'really excited and happy' about her relationship with Jesse Rutherford

Billie Eilish says she is "really inspired" by her boyfriend Jesse Rutherford and says she is "really excited and happy" about their relationship. The US megastar, 20, said "equal admiration" was really important and that she did not "want to be controlled" in a relationship.

Her romantic links with the Neighbourhood frontman, 31, have faced criticism online, with some questioning the age difference between them. But speaking to Vanity Fair in an annual interview, Eilish said their involvement was "really cool".

Asked by the outlet if she had a boyfriend, she smiled and replied: "Yeah I do, and it’s really cool and I’m really excited and I’m really happy about it. I managed to get my way to a point in my life where I not only was known by a person that I thought was the hottest f****** f***** alive, but I pulled his ass.
