How to Have It All: Addison Rae and Omer Fedi
Addison Rae and her boyfriend, music producer Omer Fedi, have been a topic of interest since they started dating in 2021. Over the past few years, they’ve managed to build a stable relationship while balancing the success of their individual careers, and are still together now.
In this day and age, isolating and “focusing on oneself” to build a career is becoming all too common. It’s refreshing to see Addison and Omer demonstrate that love and achieving your dreams is possible. Sometimes you don’t need to sacrifice one for the other.
So what’s up with Addison Rae’s boyfriend now? Let’s take a look at how she and Omer Fedi got to where they are.
Addison Rae and Omer Fedi’s Relationship Timeline
Summer of Love in June & July 2021
The saga begins at a Machine Gun Kelly concert in 2021. Addison Rae was spotted with Kourtney Kardashian and Megan Fox, who were there to watch their respective boyfriends perform. Nothing gets past the internet sleuths nowadays, and they instantly put it together that Rae was there to watch Omer Fedi, the last member of the punk boys trio.
Omer Fedi, a musician and songwriter who co-wrote hits like “Montero” with Lil Nas X and “Mood” with 24kGoldn, was performing as a guitarist at the MGK pop-up concert.
Two days after the concert, Addison Rae and Omer were seen grocery shopping at Erewhon market in West Hollywood. Grocery shopping together is usually the telltale sign that suspected lovers are officially dating. But without an official confirmation from Addison or Omer, the rumors were left to fly. And for a valid reason.
Lovers From the Past
Just a few months prior, Addison was in a very involved, very public relationship with YouTuber and TikToker Bryce Hall. The creators were in a tumultuous partnership for about a year before calling it quits. Bryce Hall would explain in a video:
Both of us are going through a ****ton of things right now behind the scenes that we don’t necessarily want to talk about to a camera. With all that stress, we mutually decided that it would be best to part ways.

In an interview with Hailey Bieber in May 2021, Addison Rae confessed that she was no longer will to share intimate details about her life.
The “He’s All That” actress would later post a video of two shadows sharing a kiss. There were no identifying features, but fans were quick to speculate that these two shadows might belong to Addison Rae and Omer Fedi.
Sheri Nicole Approved in August 2021
True to modern romance, Instagram quickly became a key player in the couple’s romance story. In August of 2021, the pair were spotted leaving cute comments on each other’s Instagram accounts. Addison Rae’s mom even mentioned on a post:
“He’s truly a wonderful amazing person and he makes her soul shine. Love him”

By the end of August, the couple was Instagram official. Omer was the one to put the rumors to rest when he posted a picture of himself and Addison on his Instagram stories with the caption, “She’s wearing the pants in the relationship.”
A Power Couple Is Born
Shortly after they went public with their relationship, Addison Rae and her new beau were seen out and about in Los Angeles holding hands. This was their first public sighting as a confirmed couple.
The couple closed out August with a bang. Omer co-produced and co-wrote the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper song “Stay” by The Kid LAROI. Addison made her Netflix debut with “He’s All That” on August 27th, and her movie earned a spot in Netflix’s weekly Top 10 list.
Omer Fedi posted on Instagram stories to share the proud moment with a caption reading:
Me and my baby are both number 1 atm. I’m so so proud of her. Wonder if we the first couple to ever do that with movie and a song? Anyway love you babe.

Getting Cozy From September-December 2021
Addison and Omer spent the latter half of 2021 in the honeymoon phase while lore behind their origin story began to surface. In an interview with SiriusXM, a friend of Fedi and longtime collaborator, The Kid LAROI said:
I feel like they did probably, maybe, meet through me—don’t quote me on that.

Addison made the couple TikTok official in October when she posted a video sharing a kiss with her beau to her 87 million followers. In November, Rae posted a short video to Instagram that showed Omer embracing her and giving her a kiss. The video was viewed over 15.5 million times.
Addison also took their romance to Twitter and wrote, “I love being in love”. In another tweet, she shared hers and Fedi’s astrological signs, Aries and Libra (Fedi was born on March 25 and Rae on October 6.) Pretty good compatibility!
Balancing Act
By this point, Addison Rae and Omer were on a steady growth pattern with both their careers and their relationship. Both of their careers started to take off, yet they managed to stay together and even became each other’s number one fans. Balancing both a successful career and a healthy dating life is becoming an increasingly rare phenomenon.
“Whether you are 15, 20, or 30, more people are choosing to be single because of the freedom. More people want to focus on their careers, build their friendships and travel.”

Addison Rae and Omer Fedi would spend the rest of the year happily dating and would continue to share videos, photos, and Instagram comments of the lovely time they were having with each other.
Despite both stars being at the height of their respective careers (so far), they’ve managed to only build on the connection they have. The singer and her beau seem to be enjoying their time together as much as they enjoy their time apart working each on their own career.
They are proof that it is possible to have everything. You don’t always have to choose.
