HAIM singer Este has revealed that a boyfriend once broke up with her over her health condition.

Sisters Alana, Este and Danielle shared their dating horror stories as they starred on GQ’s Heroes Issue cover on Tuesday for their summer edition. 

Este, 39, – who is now happily engaged to partner Jonathan Levin – reflected on some tough experiences with men in the past amid dealing with her Type 1 diabetes.

She was diagnosed at age 14 and has spoken openly about the challenges of managing the condition, especially as a touring musician.

She told the publication: ‘I had a guy break up with me because I said that there was a possibility that our kid would have diabetes.

‘He was like, ‘Then why are we here?’ And I was like, ‘What?!’

Alana, 33, sympathised and shared a dating horror story herself, saying: ‘I had a boyfriend that gave me an ultimatum between doing Licorice Pizza and staying with him.

‘I obviously made the right choice…’

She starred in the film Licorice Pizza 2021 as she made her film debut.

In the interview Danielle also spoke about the things she learned about herself being single following her split from producer Ariel Rechtshaid.

She said: ‘That I’m OK alone. Not only OK, but so happy. Sorry to be that b**ch but I’m like, really having a great time being by myself. 

‘And now, unless someone’s gonna make me so much more happy, I’m good.’

Este and Jonathan got engaged in February of this year. 

At the time she took to Instagram to declare that she was off-the-market in a quirky selfie, flashing a mᴀssive square-cut diamond ring on her wedding finger.

Though she did not caption the snap, her T-shirt said it all. She modeled a pastel blue tee that read ‘I’m taken’ in bedazzled lettering while appearing to be sitting in a bed.

And while it is unknown how long the pal of Taylor Swift and the tech entrepreneur have been dating, the lovebirds have been seen together at several events including this year’s Super Bowl game in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Sharing the post to her 352K followers, the HAIM bandmember’s fans flooded the comments in support of her and her now fiancé. 

Responding to a fan in the comments that wrote ‘oh she’s TAKEN taken,’ the No Body No Crime vocalist said, ‘TAKEN IS RIGHT.’

Later that day, the performer shared another post of herself showing off her half-moon tattoo on her chest, seemingly shading her former flames.

‘f*ck all my exes,’ she penned in the caption.

‘happy valentine’s day, i love you j,’ she penned over the snap. 

While she and her sisters Danielle, 35, and Alana – who are her HAIM bandmates – typically keep a low profile, Este has previously gotten candid about her journey with ‘self-love.’ 

She told The Cut in 2023: ‘I don’t think I truly understood self-love until the last three or four years.

‘There’s an air of confidence that comes from just loving yourself, the good and the bad.’

The star — who was an opener alongside her sisters on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour — also previously revealed the importance of surrounding oneself with strong female influences.

The blonde beauty specifically praised Swift, 35, for being a good support system when she just needs a friend to talk to.

‘She’s a true genius, and she’s also, like, the best friend and the best hang,’ she said of the Cruel Summer singer.

‘We had an amazing time at the U.S. Open … yeah I would do that like a jillion times over again. That was so much fun,’ she added.

Este did not tag Jonathon nor did she reveal any further details into her plans to exchange nuptials with her man.  

The Heroes Issue of British GQ is available via digital download and on newsstands on June 10.
