Cara and Minke met when they were students at the £52,000-per-year Bedales boarding school in Hampshire.
However, they only started dating in 2022 after being reunited at an Alanis Morissette concert. Cara has credited Minke with helping her stay on the road to sobriety.
She told Elle UK in 2024: 'My girlfriend has been really wonderful in introducing me to a lot of things and people.
'Being with my girlfriend, in this relationship, there are just so many things that came at once that have made me so happy and comfortable with who I am.'
Cara and Minke have kept a low profile since confirming their budding romance three years ago.
The supermodel, who came out as pansexual in 2020, opened up to Vogue last year.

'It was more that I just decided to put my cards on the table and say, "look, I'm in love, I'm in love with who I'm in love with",' she stated about 'coming out'
'I was done with being ashamed for who I loved and who I was. So for me it was more just being like, love is love, and we should be able to love who we want.'
Joan has previously admitted to being 'concerned' over Delevingne's party-loving antics and has described how she expressed her anxieties to Cara over the phone.

Making an appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show in 2015, Collins told how Cara's behaviour had all her godparents on edge.
She said: 'We do discuss her sometimes, there is one godmother who is quite famous and there was a period of time when we were a little bit concerned about Cara.
'So I talked to her about it and she said, "Oh don't worry about that".'
Collins added: 'She's very cavalier, she's a lovely girl and I'm very fond of her and she's an amazing actress!'
