Del Rey and Barrie-James reportedly began their relationship in 2011, making several public appearances together and collaborating on music. In 2013, the 'Young and Beautiful' hitmaker embarked on a tour for her album 'Paradise', with O'Neill's band, Kassidy, serving as her opening act. However, by 2014, they publicly acknowledged the end of their relationship. Despite this, they have maintained a friendly rapport. This friendship was evident when the Scottish singer-songwriter played a significant role in the production of Rey's 2021 album, 'Blue Banisters'.

Shortly after parting ways with O’Neill, Del Rey was speculated to be in a relationship with Francesco Carrozzini, a photographer and the son of the late Franca Sozzani, former editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia. Despite being spotted together in public on multiple occasions, neither of them confirmed their relationship status.

In 2017, whispers of a romance between Del Rey and American rapper G-Eazy circulated, though it was short-lived and largely unsubstantiated. The rumors were fueled by a few sightings of the pair together at Coachella and exiting a Los Angeles nightclub. However, later that year, G-Eazy was reported to be dating Halsey, shifting the gossip mill's focus. In 2022, G-Eazy collaborated with Jack Harlow on their hit song 'Moana', where Del Rey was mentioned in a lyric: 'I know a Keisha and I know Lana / They try to get me back, but I'm like, 'No, nah, nah' / I'm sorry, I don't want no drama, nah / That’s a hard no, pass." per L'OFFICIEL USA.

Del Rey reportedly had a controversial relationship with the police officer and Live PD analyst Sean Larkin, who appeared on her Instagram account and made a red carpet-appearance in 2020. The couple split in that year, but Larkin remained friends. Del Rey announced her album 'Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd' on his birthday and even placed a billboard advertising her album in his hometown. In her 2023 performance at Hyde Park, Del Rey added lyrics to her song 'Chemtrails Over the Country Club' referencing their relationship, suggesting they were still together when he married his wife in 2022.

Del Rey and musician Clayton Johnson's Instagram photos gave rise to rumors of a possible love affair. Although Del Rey was seen with a diamond ring, neither of them acknowledged being engaged or in a relationship. Johnson reportedly acknowledged their romance in public in 2021; however, because they were private, it is uncertain when they broke up. It had been a while since they have been seen together.

In early 2022, rumors emerged that Del Rey was dating musician Jack Donoghue. After sharing a deleted Instagram video of the pair at a monster truck race, Del Rey referred to Donoghue as "babe." In May, the American singer reportedly appeared in photos taken at Donoghue's birthday party. In July 2022, they made their Instagram official by taking photos in front of Chicago's Cook County Jail. Since then, the couple has kept their relationship low-key. In February 2023, a fan account speculated that a bouquet of flowers received around Valentine's Day was a gift from Donoghue, as seen on both of their Instagram Stories, per People.

In March 2023, rumors surfaced that Del Rey was engaged to Evan Winiker of Range Media Partners, per ELLE. This news took fans by surprise as their relationship had been so discreet that many were unaware they were even dating. According to Billboard, they had been seen together in public a few times over the preceding months. They were spotted at the Malibu Chili Cook-Off festival in September 2022 and at Pappy and Harriet’s restaurant in Pioneertown, California in March. However, Del Rey put an end to the engagement rumors herself. In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar ahead of December, she confirmed that she was single.
