But fans won’t have too long to wait to hear from her again as I’m told she is putting the finishing touches to her most personal release to date.

The six-time Brit Award winner has been hard at work on the record for months, fitting in recording sessions between sections of her tour last year.

Now she is finalising the collection, with the hope fans will get to hear new music before the end of this year.

A music insider said: “Dua’s third album is really personal to her and she has been hands on at every turn.

“She has spent hundreds of hours in the studio and has written on every song — that is really important to her.

“As one of the biggest names in pop music, all of the most talented writers and artists have been vying to work with her.

“Dua has been very clear about her direction in keeping it upbeat and fun, but she will be a lot more revealing in her lyrics.

“The label are really excited about it and are planning a lengthy campaign on a whole new scale to maximise the music, so its release date is up in the air — especially until it is completed.

“But the plan is for fans to hear at least some new music from the record by the end of the year.”

Fed in some heartbreak
Dua will have had plenty of personal experiences to draw upon when writing the album.

She dumped her model boyfriend of two years, Anwar Hadid, in 2021, so I imagine she will have fed some of that heartbreak into the music.

The Levitating singer has worked with Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker as well as songwriter Sarah Hudson, who also contributed to Future Nostalgia.

Speaking last month, Dua said: “It has a lyrical theme, more so than sonically.

“There’s still a sonic element as you go through it, it’s still pop.

“I still want to dance and do another crazy tour.

“It’s a bit more mature [than Future Nostalgia] I think in terms of the experiences.”

The stakes are high but it sounds like she’s on to another winner.
