Here’s what we know about Renée Rapp’s new girlfriend, Towa Bird.

Where is Towa Bird from?

Bird, age 24 like Rapp, had an international upbringing. She was born in Hong Kong to British and Filipino parents, and grew up between her hometown and Thailand before moving to London to study at Goldsmiths’ College, University of London, states Elle. However, she dropped out of university to begin her music career.

Her parents still live in Hong Kong.

“My family lives in Hong Kong and my sister lives with them, and so we’re all kind of, like, spread out. So whenever I do get the chance to, like, talk to them and catch up with them, I’m very grateful for that,” she told UCLA Radio in October 2023.

Bird was discovered on TikTok, going viral on the social media platform for her talented music covers, states People. She quickly caught the attention of famous artists like Billie Eilish and Tyler, The Creator.
