Dua Lipa’s separation leaves Sean O’Malley in awe

The crossings between MMA and Hollywood aren’t very bizarre. Everyone’s seen the likes of Snoop Dogg hanging out with stars like Conor McGregor, and a variety of film stars often show up to MMA fights. So, is it such a big deal that ‘Suga’ reacted to Dua Lipa’s breakup?

Allegedly, the pop star had been dating Romain Gavras for eight months. The two had been spotted together on many outings. However, sources now report that the two have separated. What’s O’Malley’s response? It’s filled with both awe and disinterest.
