Pop star Charli XCX has announced her marriage to George Daniel, the drummer from popular band The 1975, after a passerby captured a video that fueled speculation about their nuptials. The two were seen taking photos on the steps of Hackney Town Hall, with Daniel clad in a suit and XCX looking radiant in a stunning white gown. Shortly after, Charli shared the news on TikTok, which quickly garnered 3.9 million views and a flood of congratulatory messages celebrating "Mr and Mrs XCX."
Last year, Charli's album "Brat" became a cultural sensation, generating immense buzz on social media and earning critical acclaim, culminating in a headline performance at Glastonbury in June. In her TikTok post, Charli wore an elegant off-the-shoulder white dress accompanied by her signature dark sunglasses. She humorously pretended to be annoyed in the video, stating, "When George isn't crying when he sees me walking down the aisle," before adding, "Luckily he did xx" to punctuate the joyous occasion.
Further footage shared by Charli included playful moments of Daniel wearing her bridal veil, resonating with fans who dubbed the clips "bridal party energy." Evidence from outside the town hall pointed to a low-key ceremony, and the pair's public relationship has blossomed over the years, sharing their engagement excitement back in 2023.
The duo has collaborated musically multiple times, starting with Charli's track "Spinning" and continuing their partnership on songs for "Brat," where Daniel served as co-writer and co-producer. He also captivated audiences during a concert with a viral "Apple dance" alongside Charli, which played on massive screens to thousands of fans. Daniel is also known for his work with The 1975, whose hits include "Chocolate," and he has pursued solo projects in recent years.
