Charli XCX and The 1975's George Daniel Marry in London: Report

Charli XCX and The 1975's George Daniel have reportedly tied the knot. The 32-year-old pop star was seen in a stunning wedding dress kissing the 35-year-old drummer in London on Saturday (July 19), TMZ reports. Video footage shared on X captures the couple celebrating outside Hackney Town Hall, surrounded by close family and friends.

She styled her long hair down and completed the look with a flowing white veil. Daniel was dressed in a dark double-breasted suit paired with a light collared shirt. The ceremony was an intimate affair with around 20 close family members and friends in attendance, according to TMZ. Daniel's bandmates from The 1975 were reportedly present, with the exception of frontman Matty Healy. Billboard has reached out to Charli XCX's representatives for comment. Charli and Daniel began dating in 2022 and announced their engagement a year later. The couple made their relationship Instagram official in May 2022, following their collaboration on Charli's 2022 album, Crash, which reached at No. 7 on the Billboard 200. Daniel also contributed production on tracks including 'In the City,' her duet with Sam Smith, as well as 'Hot Girl' for the Bodies Bodies Bodies soundtrack. Charli took last summer by storm with the release of her sixth album, Brat, which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, her highest-charting album to date. From its meme-worthy lime-green cover to its surprising role in the 2024 U.S. presidential race, the project propelled her from cult favorite to bona fide pop A-lister. Following a successful tour in support of Brat, Charli has shifted her focus to onscreen opportunities, including a film she conceptualized for A24 titled The Moment. She also recently lined up a gig to star in and produce the next movie from Japanese horror director Takashi Mike (Yakuza Apocalypse).

Antiques Roadshow expert left 'shaken' after giving guest 'life-changing' news

An expert was left visibly shaken after delivering a jaw-dropping valuation during a recent episode of the BBC show. Jewellery specialist Geoffrey Munn, known for his calm manner and royal knowledge, became emotional while sharing the value of a set of rare heirlooms brought in by a guest. You may also like Antiques Roadshow star left stunned by 'one-of-a-kind' item in very rare moment Antiques Roadshow guest speechless as £1 vase turns out to be worth a fortune Royal cufflinks spark unexpected moment During the segment, Geoffrey was presented with a set of cufflinks and a brooch passed down through the guest's family. The items had originally belonged to her great-grandfather, who worked as a chef to Queen Victoria and Edward VII. According to the guest, her ancestor had been gifted the jewels by various members of European royalty, including Tsar Nicholas II and Wilhelm II, during his time working at Sandringham and Buckingham Palace. Geoffrey immediately noted the rarity of the pieces, describing the cufflinks as 'very, very Russian' and likely crafted using the samorodok technique, a style favoured by Fabergé. Though not confirmed to be from the famous house, he said they 'reeked' of the legendary jewellery firm. A surprise Fabergé find The real highlight came when the guest produced a brooch that had once been given by Tsar Nicholas II. Geoffrey confidently identified it as an authentic Fabergé piece due to the visible workmaster's initials, declaring it a 'full-blown Fabergé brooch'. The guest appeared emotional as she reacted: 'Wonderful. Because I wondered and half hoped it would be and that's marvellous.' Life-changing valuation Geoffrey began with a modest estimate for the cufflinks, placing their value at around £8,000. He explained that although not confirmed to be Fabergé, their provenance and style made them highly desirable. The cufflinks that had been turned into brooches were given a slightly higher valuation of around £9,000. However, it was the valuation of the brooch that left both the guest and expert speechless. After the guest guessed £10,000, Geoffrey replied: 'Well it is £10,000 and it's more than £10,000. It's £15,000.' At this point, Geoffrey held the guest's hand and said: 'You feeling calm? This is very, very good isn't it? Making me nervous.' The studio erupted in applause as the guest responded: 'My dear chap. Gosh. That's amazing. I never realised it would be as much as that, I must confess.' A collection to treasure Despite the significant valuation, the guest told Geoffrey she had no plans to sell the items. 'I don't really want to sell these,' she said. 'I want to keep them because they're family pieces.' Geoffrey agreed, adding: 'I think in a way they should be kept together as a collection.' Fans watching at home were equally moved by the exchange. Many praised Geoffrey for his kind manner and emotional sensitivity, with one viewer writing on X: 'Geoffrey Munn always handles these moments so well. What a lovely man.' Another commented: 'You could see how much this meant to both of them. Antiques Roadshow at its best.' Family ties to royalty The items' connection to the Imperial Russian family and European monarchs made the valuation especially significant. Geoffrey pointed out the imperial cipher and historic craftsmanship as crucial factors in determining the brooch's worth. The emotional moment served as a reminder of the rich stories often attached to family heirlooms.
