Original caption

Olivia Rodrigo has been linked to Julian Croonenberghs, a private equity associate at Hg Capital working in the firm’s lower-mid market buyout fund with a focus on AI transformation. He graduated from Brown University in 2022 with a degree in mathematics and computer science, previously worked as an investment banking analyst at Goldman Sachs on the FIG desk, and represented the US men’s national field hockey team from 2018 to 2020. The relationship has drawn online criticism, largely centered on a lyric from her song “Expectations” — “I won’t settle for a guy with a fake job.” Neither Rodrigo nor Croonenberghs has publicly commented.
