Here's everything you need to know about Scherzinger’s sweet romance!
No way! The "Don't Hold Your Breath" singer—sorry, this song had to be mentioned! It’s a classic!—is very much taken and absolutely glowing. Scherzinger has been in a committed relationship since 2020 and got engaged in 2023. She's traded her single days for cozy couple moments and couldn't be happier.
Who is Nicole Scherzinger dating?
Scherzinger is engaged to Thom Evans, a charming Scottish former rugby player who's 13 years her junior. The pair have been inseparable since they first met, and their chemistry is undeniable. Evans has been her biggest supporter through her Broadway debut in Sunset Boulevard, and they're clearly head over heels for each other.
In a sweet 2021 interview, Evans said he was “massively punching above” his weight when it came to dating Scherzinger. That’s the energy, Thom!

Evans had quite the athletic career before transitioning into entertainment. He played professional rugby as a winger for Glasgow Warriors from 2006 to 2010, but his sports career sadly ended early due to a serious neck injury when he was just 26.
After hanging up his rugby boots, Evans reinvented himself as a multi-talented entertainer. He's tried his hand at modeling, competed on the British version of Strictly Come Dancing in 2014, and even pursued music. He was part of a pop group called Try Star when he appeared on The X Factor: Celebrity in 2019—which is actually where he met Scherzinger! He was also involved with another group called Twen2y4Se7en. So, yeah, they’re a musical couple.
How did Nicole Scherzinger and Thom Evans meet?
Their love story has serious reality TV romance vibes! The pair first met in 2019 on The X Factor: Celebrity, where Scherzinger was a judge and Evans was competing as part of the group Try Star. (Hallmark, please make a movie about this ASAP!)
According to Evans, he initially thought Scherzinger was completely out of his league. Their first real interaction happened after an awkward performance of "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" when Scherzinger helped save their performance on the show. The group went to her dressing room afterward to thank her, and that's when the sparks few. As Evans put it, he "never looked back" after that moment. Ugh, it’s too good!
Speaking about their relationship, Evans said, “People always say, ‘When you know, you know’ and I can honestly say I’d never really had that moment. But within the first couple of days with Nicole it was just awesome and it has been awesome ever since.”

Nicole Scherzinger's Past Relationships
Before finding love with Evans, Scherzinger had some pretty high-profile relationships. Her most famous romance was with Formula 1 racing champ Lewis Hamilton. They had an on-and-off relationship that lasted about seven years, from 2007 to 2015, and were constantly in the British tabloids. Their relationship was intense but ultimately didn't work out, with them splitting for good in February 2015.
About the breakup, Scherzinger said in a statement: “I'm devastated that it didn't work out. It was the hardest decision we had to make, but we made it together... love Lewis, and I know he loves me. We wish nothing but happiness and the very best for one another."
Scherzinger was also previously engaged to Nick Hexum, the lead singer of the band 311 (shout out, favorite childhood angsty band!), from 2000 to 2004. After her split from Lewis Hamilton, she dated Bulgarian tennis player Grigor Dimitrov from 2016 until early 2019, just before she met Evans.
It seems like Scherzinger has finally found her perfect match in Evans—someone who supports her career, makes her laugh, and clearly adores her. As the kids say, relationship goals!
