The couple met in 2019 at the GQ Men of the Year Awards, and started dating in 2022. They have collaborated a few times, with the first being on Filipino recording artiste No Rome's song Spinning (2021), which saw Daniel as co-producer.
In November 2023, Charli XCX announced on Instagram that they were engaged.
She has been on her Brat Tour since late 2024, and will be wrapping up her final show in South Korea in August.

Coldplay dedicates Nashville show to Ozzy Osbourne after his demise
Washington DC [US], July 23 (ANI): Coldplay dedicated a cover of Black Sabbath's soft-rock 1972 ballad 'Changes' to the late Ozzy Osbourne at their concert at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, reported People. John Michael 'Ozzy' Osbourne, the lead singer of British heavy metal band Black Sabbath, has died at 76. He breathed his last on Tuesday after a yearslong struggle with Parkinson's disease. Less than three weeks ago, Osbourne performed from a throne on stage at Villa Park, telling fans, 'You've no idea how I feel -- thank you from the bottom of my heart. 'The concert featured performances from Osbourne's friends, including Metallica and Guns N' Roses, and was billed as the heavy metal legend's 'final bow'. Before the show, a fan posted a video on X from outside Nissan Stadium, where the band could be heard performing 'Changes' during soundcheck. 'We'd like to dedicate this whole show to the incredible genius, talent, and character called gift to the world who was Ozzy Osbourne. We send our love to his family,' Coldplay frontman Chris Martin said in a fan-captured video from the concert shared on TikTok, according to People. Martin said remembering the legend, 'Ozzy, we love you, wherever you're going.' In his 2011 autobiography I Am Ozzy, co-written by Chris Ayres, the Black Sabbath frontman revealed that the lyrics were inspired by the end of guitarist Bill Ward's first marriage. Osbourne co-wrote the lyrics with Black Sabbath bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler, as per the outlet. 'I will never forget you - you will be in every single note I sing and with me every single time I walk on stage,' Yungblud wrote. 'Your cross around my neck is the most precious thing I own. You asked me once if there was anything you could do for me and as I said then and as I will say now for all of us the music was enough. You took us on your adventure - an adventure that started it all.' 'I am truly heartbroken. You were the greatest of all time,' concluded the rock star. Osbourne's family said in a statement on July 22, 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.' Osbourne is survived by his wife Sharon and six children, reported People. (ANI)

Liam Gallagher mocks Coldplay scandal, tells cheaters they're safe at Oasis show
Following Coldplay's now infamous "kiss cam" fail that put two tech execs on the Internet's viral hit list, other musicians are getting in on the joke. Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher extended a cheeky, profanity laced, welcome to unfaithful fans at the British rock band's reunion show in Manchester, England, on Sunday (July 20). "Do we have any lovebirds in the house?" he asked the crowd. "Don't worry, we don't got any of that Coldplay snidey (expletive) camera s—. Doesn't matter to us who you're (expletive) mingling with.... It's none of our (expletive) business." Country singer Morgan Wallen also reassured his fans at a concert in Arizona on July 18. "Anybody in here with their side chick, or whatever, I think you're safe here," he told the audience, in a video shared to social media. He added, however, "I don't condone cheating – anymore." That same night, Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger issued a warning before pointing a camera at fans during his Summer of '99 and Beyond Festival performance in Wisconsin. "Now if you're here with somebody you're not supposed to be here with, just duck," he quipped. American Idol judge Luke Bryan also referenced the incident during a tour stop in South Carolina on Thursday, July 17. "Who's here with their secretary tonight?" the singer asked the crowd as he warned them of cameras in the venue, as seen in a video shared to TikTok. "Don't get caught tonight." It all began on July 16, at Coldplay's Gillette Stadium show in Foxborough, Massachusetts, where a "kiss cam" zoomed in on a couple who appeared to be enjoying the concert while in a tender embrace. But after they abruptly pulled away and hid their faces from view as they realised they were on camera, Martin joked to the crowd that "either they're having an affair or they're just very shy." Internet sleuths quickly identified them as Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the company's chief people officer, Kristin Cabot – both of whom are married to other people. The incident eventually led to Byron's resignation. The New York-based company, which has offices in San Jose and San Francisco, confirmed the move Saturday (July 19), citing the importance of leadership accountability. "Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met," Astronomer said in a statement. As memes flooded platforms, sports mascots across the US. eagerly jumped on the trend too. At a Phillies game in Philadelphia on Friday, the team's mascot recreated the moment on the jumbotron with over-the-top drama. The Arizona Diamondbacks' D. Baxter the Bobcat embraced a Cardinals fan before mimicking the original duo's evasive manoeuvres. Even ESPN's SportsCenter anchors Randy Scott and Gary Striewski gave the bit a cold-open spin, complete with dramatic camera pans and mock heartbreak. At Coldplay's show at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin, on Saturday, frontman Chris Martin addressed the controversy with a wink. "We'd like to say hello to some of you in the crowd," Martin said. "How we're going to do that is we're going to use our cameras and put some of you on the big screen. So please, if you haven't done your makeup, do your makeup now." During The Jumbotron Song no couples were featured. Meanwhile, Astronomer's newly appointed interim CEO Pete DeJoy, a co-founder of the data software firm, attempted to smooth over the controversy. "The spotlight has been unusual and surreal for our team and, while I would never have wished for it to happen like this, Astronomer is now a household name," he wrote on LinkedIn. "But our story is very much still being written." DeJoy added that Astronomer has "never shied away from challenges." "And yet, we're still here," he wrote. "We're here because Astronomer is built by people who live to solve hard problems, stay late to fix what's broken, and care deeply about doing things the right way. We're here because our customers trust us with their most ambitious data & AI projects. And, most importantly, we're here because the mission is bigger than any one moment." – San Francisco Chronicle/Tribune News Service
