We all know that Sam Ryder is up in space, maaaaan, but is he travelling solo?

The Eurovision superstar – who helped the UK achieve its best score since 1998 in 2022 – has seen a successive run of career highlights since coming second in the song contest.

He’ll also be making an appearance at tonight’s grand final – rooting on 2023 contestant Mae Muller to match his success (or even do one better) as well as performing his new single.

But who is along for the ride with Sam? Here’s what we know about Sam Ryder’s partner…

Who is Lois Gaskin-Barber, Sam Ryder’s long-time partner?

Sam is dating Lois Gaskin-Barber. She describes herself on her social media bio as a ‘multi-dimensional creative.’

The pair worked together, running the Lone Wolves Organic juice bar in Coggeshall, Essex, in 2017, before closing it two years later.

Lois appears to be continuing the Lone Wolves brand, owning the social media handle Lone Wolves Creative and selling handmade jewellery.

How long have they been together?

The pair have kept relatively out of the spotlight when it comes to their personal life.

However, in one of Lois’ Instagram posts, she seems to imply the pair have known each other for some time, writing about experiencing birthdays together ‘from our teens to our 30s.’

According to another post she made on Instagram, the couple appeared to have started dating on October 4, 2011: ‘Today, nine years ago, I finally gave in and said, “Yes, let’s see how this goes,”’ when we were just two foolish youngsters. The best thought ever.’
