Boom, clap, the sound of … wedding bells? Charli XCX is engaged to George Daniel of The 1975, a match made in indie-pop heaven.
The news comes in the form of an Instagram post from the 31-year-old “Speed Drive” singer’s Instagram account, to which she shared a photo of a diamond engagement ring still in its box, presented on a tray in between two cups of tea. She also included a snap of her and the 33-year-old drummer exchanging a cinematic kiss, Charli wearing a white sundress.
“charli xcx and george daniel f–king for life!!!” she captioned the post.
Their rep also confirmed the engagement news to Billboard.
Within an hour, the announcement earned several “likes” and comments from a number of the couple’s famous friends, including Muna, Arlo Parks, Dominic Fike, Rachel Sennott and Kim Petras. Even Dua Lipa commented on the post — “aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!!! LOVE THIS!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ congratulations lovebirds!!!!!” — as did 1975 frontman Matty Healy, who simply wrote, “I cry🥺”.
The English musicians made their relationship Instagram official in May of last year, shortly after working together on Charli’s 2022 album Crash, which peaked at a career high No. 7 on the Billboard 200. Daniel also contributed production to “In the City,” Charli’s October duet with Sam Smith, as well as “Hot Girl” for A24’s Bodies Bodies Bodies soundtrack.
Fans online are also celebrating the news. “CHARLI AND GEORGE OH MY GOD THEY REALLY ARE GETTING ENGAGED,” wrote one well-wisher on Twitter.
“GEORGE AND CHARLI FOREVER,” tweeted another fan.
