Billie Eilish Reveals How Christian Bale Played a Part in Breakup With Ex-Boyfriend

Billie Eilish's ocean eyes have been opened by Batman.

The "What Was I Made For" singer recently revealed that dreaming about actor Christian Bale lead to her breaking up with a boyfriend.

"I got to be real: A couple years ago, I had a dream about Christian Bale and it was at a little cafe in the sunlight," Billie explained during an interview with Amelia Dimoldenberg released on March 1, "and it made me realize that I had to breakup with my boyfriend at the time."

She continued, "Genuinely, I woke up and I came to my senses."

While Billie did not identify the ex by name, the 22-year-old was last linked with The Neighbourhood frontman Jesse Rutherford, who she broke up with in May after less than a year of dating.

She also dated actor Matthew Tyler Vorce for about a year before breaking up in 2022.

The Grammy winner is often quiet about her private life, although she did get candid last year about her attraction to women.

"I love them so much," she said in a November interview with Variety. "I love them as people. I'm attracted to them as people. I'm attracted to them for real."

 

Explaining how she's always had "deep connections with women" in her life, the "Ocean Eyes" artist added, "I'm physically attracted to them. But I'm also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence."

And for Billie, she's been touched by the support she's received since coming out.

"It's exciting to me because I guess people didn't know, so it's cool that they know," she told Variety in December. "I'm nervous talking about it. But no, I am for the girls."

Combining a few of her signature themes for 2020, Billie sported accents of lime green under an oversized Gucci ensemble for the 62nd Grammy Awards. Unique to the look is her patterned mask and long green fingernails.

Anything but ordinary, the "Lovely" singer really stood out at the 2019 American Music Awards wearing Burberry's iconic tartan with a hood of sparkling gems covering her face. Down to a matching pair of plaid shoes, Billie came through looking regal and modern!

All designer everything. Billie sported a rainbow Louis Vuitton outfit to promote the launch of her Billie Eilish Experience presented by Spotify in 2019. The full coverage extended to a matching bucket hat and face covering—duh!

For Radio 1's Big Weekend in 2019, Billie rocked her go-to shirt and short combo in lime green, but this time, it was decorated with different artistic renditions of her name. Paired perfectly with combat boots and shades, Billie brought the house down.

Billie opted for a classic white tee with an oversized jersey and matching shorts for the Austin City Limits Festival at Zilker Park in 2019. Paired with a thick silver chain and details of her signature light green, Billie owned this chic 'fit.

On her way to the Vanity Fair after-party at the 92nd Academy Awards, the singer stopped to strike a pose in an all-black Gucci ensemble with lace details under an oversized black t-shirt and pant set. If the matching shades don't say it all, her pose certainly does.

At the 2020 Billboard Music Awards, the 19-year-old opted for a monochromatic, brocade two-piece by Gucci—matching bucket hat and face mask to boot!

For the Glastonbury Festival in 2019, Billie wore an ensemble from Stella McCartney's Yellow Submarine-inspired collection. Making a reference to the 1968 Beatles cartoon film, the Blue Meanies are music-hating beings, so they are perfect for concert attire.

The only thing hotter than her translucent sunglasses featured up top is her fire tune. 

Billie transcended time and space in this lime green look at the CBS Radio We Can Survive concert in 2019. Even with an injury, Billie knows how to give a performance!
