However, these recent downfalls in Julian’s career have interestingly sparked a curiosity among his fans to inquire into his love life, more specifically Julian Casablancas’ girlfriend.

Together with Juliet, the couple welcomed their first son Cal in January 2010 and their second son Zephyr on March 27, 2015.
Unfortunately, their marriage could last only for 14 years as they decided to part their ways in 2019.
There have been rumors that Julian wrote songs dissing his wife, which kind of fueled their divorce.
Julian Casablancas’ Girlfriend, Kaya Nichols
Following the divorce, in 2020, Julian began a new chapter with Kaya Nichols, who had previously worked as a roadie for the band.
Notably half the age younger than him, Kaya and Julian reportedly grew close during one of the band’s US tours.
A trusted source revealed to The Sun,
“Him and Kaya have been getting really close for months and now they’re pretty inseparable. He even takes her backstage with him at huge events such as gigs at the Barclays Center in New York. If the band goes somewhere for a tour or anything else, Kaya goes with him.”

There were even reports that Julian and Kaya lived together during the COVID-19 lockdown, further solidifying their relationship in the eyes of the public.
As Julian tends to keep his personal life private on social media, it’s unclear whether his relationship with Kaya is still ongoing.
However, Julian previously dated figures like Christina Connell, Courtney Love, and Regina Spektor.
