Brat star Charli XCX confirms marriage to The 1975 drummer George Daniel
The TikTok read: 'When George isn't crying when he sees me walking down the aisle.'
Charli confirmed in the caption that 'luckily' the 35-year-old drummer did cry.
In a separate post captioned 'bridal party energy' Daniel could be seen wearing his wife's veil, while The Dare, who produced Charli's track Guess and whose real name is Harrison Smith, could also be seen at the party.
The wedding reportedly took place at Hackney Town Hall in London on Saturday, with the pair being spotted taking pictures with friends and family outside the venue, on social media.
The pair first shared photos of their engagement in 2023, and have worked together on a number of occasions collaborating on Charli track Spinning, before Daniel was credited as a co-producer and co-writer on two songs on Brat.
Daniel has also performed the viral 'Apple dance' at one of his wife's London shows.
Following the release of the Brat album, Charli's infectious electronic-pop tracks soared up the charts and inspired a trend, with fans embracing the 'Brat summer' cultural movement.
The accolades followed, and in March she dominated the Brit Awards, winning five categories including songwriter of the year.
She also secured album of the year, artist of the year, dance act, and song of the year for a version of her track Guess featuring Billie Eilish.
In February she picked up three awards at the Grammys and she was named songwriter of the year at The Ivors in May.
She recently performed at this year's Glastonbury Festival and at her own day festival in London's Victoria Park.
Daniel's band The 1975 are completed by singer Matty Healy, guitarist Adam Hann, and bass player Ross MacDonald, they are best known for tracks such as Chocolate, Love Me and The Sound.
The drummer has also launched an electronic solo career, releasing his first solo song Screen Cleaner in 2024.

Jess Glynne finally meets Jet2 voiceover artist taking over our summer
Jess Glynne and Zoe Lister – the two people behind the viral TikTok sound of the summer – have finally met in person for the first time. The London singer-songwriter, 35, and the Worcester actress, 43, had their work combined by budget airline Jet2 years ago for an advertisement campaign. Jess' 2015 UK number one song Hold My Hand has been the signature tune for Jet2 adverts – and onboard Jet2 flights – for many years now. Former Hollyoaks actress Zoe was later hired by the airline to produce the now-famous 'Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday' voiceover on a number of their TV spots. The sound clip of the Jet2 Hold My Hand mash-up has spread all over TikTok and beyond during the heatwave-hit British summer of 2025, becoming a viral sensation. To celebrate, Capital Breakfast with Jordan North got Jess and Zoe in a room together for the very first time on Monday morning, with the pair joining in on the meme fun. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video In a video posted to Instagram, host Jordan initially found it hard to contain his excitement, screeching at the top of his lungs that Jess and Zoe's meeting was 'finally happening'. 'It's happening! It's happening!' he screamed as Zoe entered the studio and gave Jess a massive hug, while there were calls for everybody to 'calm down' off-camera. Co-host Chris Stark asked Jess: 'You know what's coming, right? We've got to chat about it. Of course, talking about Hold My Hand… You always hear that song whenever you go on a plane. 'Then it's in the advert. And then, for reasons no one really understands, this summer, it just exploded on TikTok. Has it surprised you how massive this has all gone? Jess replied that she was grateful for the renewed interest in the song: 'Yeah, it's a massive surprise 100%. It's the most amazing thing to see though.' Jess then performed her own version of Zoe's famous voiceover, reading the full script out in the studio: 'Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday. And right now, you can save £50 per person. That's £200 off for a family of four.' Her rendition was greeted with massive cheers in the studio, including from Zoe herself, who laughed along to Jess' impression of her. Zoe then gave an impromptu live performance of her famous voiceover while Hold My Hand played in the background, once again being received by loud cheering from the hosts. More Trending Hold My Hand spent three weeks at number one in 2015 and spent 51 weeks in total on the UK charts, eventually being certified 3x Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. Zoe starred as Zoe Carpenter on Hollyoaks between 2006 and 2010, also appearing on Big Brother's Little Brother and T4 On the Beach around the same time. In the 2010s, she turned towards theatre – she was celebrated for her performance as Lady Macbeth during a 2012 run of the William Shakespeare play. Jet2 started using her voiceover in 2019 – four years after she married musician Rob Castell. Got a story?

What happened to Sylvanian Drama on TikTok? The legal fight over controversial viral clips explained
Social media account has frequently gone viral for its darkly comedic skits featuring Calico Critters TOY BATTLE What happened to Sylvanian Drama on TikTok? The legal fight over controversial viral clips explained Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A VIRAL TikTok account that featured toys getting drunk, doing drugs and committing violence is reportedly at the centre of a legal battle. Sylvanian Drama, launched by Irish content creator Thea Von Engelbrechten, is being sued by Japanese company Epoch. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Epoch is suing Sylvanian Drama for infringing its copyright The social media account, which has frequently gone viral for its darkly comedic skits featuring the small toys, mysteriously went quiet this year after it landed in legal hot water with the toys' maker. It is now being reported that Sylvanian Drama, which has 2.5 million followers on TikTok and 1 million on Instagram, is being sued for copyright infringement, trademark infringement and unfair competition. Why is the lawsuit only being reported now? Epoch's lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on April 7, initially went unnoticed but drew attention last week when some outlets reported on the situation. It came after reporters noticed months of silence from the account. The lawsuit, first reported by The Irish Independent, added that the site also uses a copyrighted image as Sylvanian Drama's social media profile picture. CCTV captures moment toy-loving boy crawls into claw machine The company claims that Thea Von Engelbrechten has been 'doubling her efforts to exploit Epoch's copyrights and trademarks for her own commercial gain' despite the company's attempts to work the issue out amicably. Sylvanian Families, also known as Calico Critters in the United States and Canada, are felt dolls in the shape of cute, anthropomorphized animals. They were first released in Japan in 1985. How did Sylvanian Drama become so popular? The creatures range from bunnies and kittens to squirrels and more, all with wide, black eyes and tiny clothing. The videos on Sylvanian Drama, all of which feature Calico Critters, often rack up millions of views each. Von Engelbrechten began posting Sylvanian Drama videos in 2021, when she was a 19-year-old multimedia student at Dublin City University. She told The Tab in a 2023 interview that her videos were meant to parody shows like 'Gossip Girl' and 'Pretty Little Liars.' 'I'm always surprised that I'm not already canceled for the stuff that I do,' she said. 'I don't mean any harm and also … a lot of the issues that I joke about are problems in my own life. 'There's a lot of stuff about weight and dieting and people struggling with that, and that's all just me joking about myself. So I'm not making fun of anyone.' Inspiration for content As reported by the BBC, the court document states that in an interview with influencer marketing company Fohr, Von Engelbrechten said her inspiration for the storylines came from "cringey TV shows and early 2000s comedy". She added: "I'm also really inspired by my cats because they are extremely sassy and self-obsessed and can be so cute, but they also have no morals when it comes to killing other animals. 'I try to embody that with the Sylvanians." Asked why she thought her videos were so popular she told Fohr: "Maybe it's because it's coming from the voice of a 22-year-old who struggles with the same things as [they do]. 'I have a lot of storylines about insecure people, diet culture, toxic men, and sustainability, which I think other girls my age are also thinking a lot about." Do you have a Sylvanian Families toy worth up to £500 in your house? Anyone who grew up in the 80s will remember the cute Sylvanian Families toys - and some could now fetch you a pretty penny on eBay. The furry animals come in neat family sets (mum and dad, son and daughter), all with old-fashioned outfits, jobs and homes. The cute characters were first introduced in the UK back in 1985, after being designed by Japanese firm Epoch. And it seems like the older and rarer your models, the more they might now be worth online. Last year, a collector sold a rare Japanese doll from 2003 for a whopping £500 - almost five times its auction start price of £99. Another vintage Sylvanian teddy bear from the 1980s sold for £456. A date has been set for August 14 for a pre-trial conference. This is when legal teams from both sides will meet to explore settlement options or prepare the case for trial. Von Engelbrechten and Epoch have yet to respond to press requests for comment.

Tourist expects stunning panoramic view from his hotel window.. but leaves viewers speechless when he pulls back curtain
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A TOURIST has left people in stitches after revealing the unique view he has from his hotel window. With the school holidays now just right around the corner, many Brits will be about to jet off on well-earned holidays abroad. 2 Ben expected a lovely panoramic view from his window Credit: TikTok/@bben9450 2 He was gobsmacked by how small the window is Credit: TikTok/@bben9450 When most of us go away, we long for a gorgeous sea view, or to be able to see the rolling countryside out of our hotel window. However, one holidaymaker didn't get quite what he was expecting on a recent break. Brad Ben, from Dublin, recently took a trip to Galway, and spent his time there in a modern looking hotel room. Sharing a clip of the inside of his room on TikTok, Ben used the audio from the famous Jet 2 advert, narrated by Hollyoaks' Zoe Lister, and featuring Jess Glynne's iconic hit Hold My Hand. It has become a popular trend in recent weeks to use the audio alongside a holiday 'fail'. In the video, Ben can be seen strutting across his hotel room, before opening up his thick floor length curtains. Where you would expect to see a large window, showing panoramic views, there was a teeny tiny square one, reminiscent of a ship's porthole. "Appreciating those views", he joked. The view has left people in hysterics, racking up an astronomical 239 million views on the video sharing platform. In a second video, Ben showed viewers what he could see through the window, placing his camera right up to the glass to show the Irish countryside opposite his hotel. People are only just realising who does the voice over for viral Jet2 advert From a distance, it looks like the window is a small painting on the wall. "She's giving Van Gogh", Ben Joked. TikTok users flooded the comments section of the video, to share their disbelief at the view. One person said: "Are you in jail?" Holiday packing tips Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday. 1. Write a list Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase. Or for complete ease, try Google's AI app - Gemini - which will create a list for you and help you not over pack. 2. Involve your kids Jemma said: 'My girls are getting older, they're 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say 'this is what you need' and they follow the list. 'And then I give them a rucksack each - and say to them 'you can have whatever you want in there as long as it's not liquid', and they can take that on the plane. And that's their 'home away from home' items.' 3. Try a hack or two She said: "I think they all work, but for different reasons - and you've just got to pick the right one for your trip. "Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you're trying to get a lot of items into your case, it's a space saver. 'Packing cubes are great - for example, I'm going on holiday with my three kids and we're all using the same suitcase for our clothes. "These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked. "I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we've arrived." 4. Decant beauty products Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets - which are much lighter and smaller. Or, if you'll be popping to the shops when you're abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive. 5. Get organised before you come home Jemma said: 'When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes. 'Also pack it in some form of order - so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person. "Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don't leave it." Another said: "They have a nerve to put a curtain over that." A third person exclaimed: "I was not expecting this one bit." A fourth added: "I dunno what I was expecting but it deffo wasn't that window."
