Here's why Matty Healy wasn't at Charli XCX's wedding
In style, of course. Charli wore a Vivienne Westwood dress and her signature wraparound black shades, seemingly confirming the news via a TikTok video where she joked that George shed a tear when he saw her walking down the aisle.
It was a relatively low-key affair involving what looked to be close friends and family – but still, onlookers were surprised to see that one person in particular didn't seem to be there.
That would be Matty Healy, the lead singer of The 1975: the band that Daniel is the drummer for.
The pair's friendship stretches back decades: they've been part of the same band for almost twenty years, spending much of that time either writing or touring together.
As it turns out, Healy was in LA, attending a screening for the film I Know What You Did Last Summer – which his fiancee, Gabbriette Bechtel (a model and actor, whom Healy has been dating since September 2023) appears in.
It looks like there was a scheduling clash with the wedding – though this is all speculation, and hasn't yet been confirmed by any of the parties involved.
However, he wasn't totally absent from the festivities: according to The Sun, Healy was at Daniel's stag do earlier this week. That took place in Ibiza, and Healy reportedly flew out on Tuesday
'George has been busy this summer, but his mates were determined to take him on a stag do,' a source reportedly told the Sun.
'He flew to Ibiza for a couple of days for a raucous knees-up with his closest pals – including his bandmates – and party girl Charli was all for it.'
Apparently, after their more low-key nuptials, the pair are planning to tie the knot again in spectacular fashion in Sicily later this year.
'Neither of us are particularly formal about marriage or care about the formalities of the ceremony or whatever,' Charli told Harper's Bazaar after the pair announced their engagement in November 2023.
'We just want to be together forever and have a party with our friends.'

Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid's Relationship Status Might Change 'In the Next Couple of Months'
Wedding bells might be ringing sooner for Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid. The "American Sniper" actor is reportedly gearing up to pop the big question soon, as he and the model become even more serious about starting their own blended family. The move comes months after Hadid was seen enjoying a stroll with Cooper's daughter, giving fans a glimpse into her future as a stepmother. Bradley Cooper And Gigi Hadid Want A Family Of Their Own Insiders claim Cooper and Hadid are on the same page about having a child together despite each having daughters from separate relationships. The "Maestro" actor shares a 7-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine, with his former partner, model Irina Shayk, while Hadid co-parents her 5-year-old daughter, Khai, with her ex-boyfriend, Zayn Malik. Cooper is "considering marriage and kids with Gigi," the source alleged. With their children around the same age and both families already blending, walking down the aisle seems like a natural next step. "He might pop the question in the next couple of months," the informant told Page Six. Gigi Hadid And Bradley Cooper Are In A 'Bubble' Despite a 20-year age gap, Hadid and Cooper have continued to grow stronger as a couple since they debuted their romance in October 2023. Their close bond even reflects in their children's relationship, as sources claim the kids spend time together and have playdates. As a result, Hadid and Cooper are keen on bringing an additional child or children into the mix. "They could picture a blended family with their daughters and their own kids," the informant noted. Luckily, the lovebirds' relationship is strong enough to withstand the adjustments that come with having more children, if that happens. Cooper and Hadid are "incredibly happy and are in their own bubble," added the source. Gigi Hadid Earns Praises For Future Stepmother Role Reports of impending wedding bells come almost a month after Hadid was spotted in New York City enjoying an affectionate stroll with Cooper's daughter, Lea. As The Blast reported, the model and Lea were photographed strolling leisurely in the Big Apple while sharing a keen conversation. The 30-year-old dressed casual for the outing in a white top, cardigan, and high-waisted jeans paired with Vans sneakers. Hadid accessorized with a tote bag, simple jewelry, and sunglasses. Cooper's daughter proudly represented her father, wearing a Metallica top that honors her dad's favorite band. The seven-year-old finished off her look with a floral-patterned skirt and grey sneakers. Although the "Silver Linings Playbook" actor was absent during the stroll, Lea looked super comfortable hanging with the model. The 'Ocean's 8' Star Is A Mother Figure To Bradley Cooper's Daughter The NYC outing got tongues wagging, with fans praising how easily the model integrated herself into Cooper's world. A source shared insight on Lea and Hadid's bond, saying the IMG model treats Lea "as if she were her own" and in return the preschooler "sees Gigi as a mother figure in return." Although Shayk remains in the picture, the Russian model reportedly approves of the relationship. Luckily, Cooper shared a similar bond with his girlfriend's daughter, Khai, and has the stamp of approval from Malik. "Lea has also become like a big sister to Khai, and the two girls share a strong relationship," the informant noted. "Khai has grown up with Bradley and Lea as a regular part of her life, and she sees Bradley as a father figure - something Zayn supports as well." Gigi Hadid's Family Gives Bradley Cooper Romance The Green Light Fans aren't the only ones excited about Cooper and Hadid's pairing, as the model's family is also very much on board. The Blast previously reported that a source told People Magazine that the Hadid family is extremely supportive due to how happy their daughter appears with the award-winning Hollywood star. "Gigi's family is so happy for her, and they absolutely adore Bradley. He is such a gentleman, and he blends so seamlessly into their family," the insider explained. "Gigi and Bradley have a lot in common, and his daughter, Lea, is so sweet and gentle with Khai." The source continued, "Bradley is different from any of Gigi's past relationships, and they've never seen her this happy with a partner before." Solve the daily Crossword

Matty Healy's Mom Has Nothing Against Taylor Swift, But Is ‘Glad' She's Not Her Mother-In-Law
Matty Healy's mom, the English actor and TV personality Denise Welch, barely tried to hold back when discussing her son's brief, tumultuous relationship with Taylor Swift on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live. Expert orchestrator of mess that he is, Andy Cohen pointedly asked Welch about her reaction to Swift's last album, The Tortured Poets Department, which contained several songs about her time with Healy (and the media firestorm it caused). Welch began her response diplomatically, saying, 'Obviously, on pain of death, can I talk about that episode?' before proceeding to, more or less, talk about that episode: 'But not being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost.'

But let's just say her tone left little doubt over what she actually meant, eliciting gasps from both Cohen and the audience. In extremely British fashion, Welch quickly couched her comment by insisting, 'Not that I have anything against her at all! It was just — it was tricky.' She went on to suggest that Healy and others were 'not allowed to say anything' about the relationship or break-up, but then Swift wrote 'a whole album about it.' Welch then said, 'Matty has taken it all in completely good grace. He's very happy with his amazing fiancée, Gabriella [who uses the stage name, Gabriette], who is gorgeous. So, we've moved on.' A rep for Swift did not immediately return a request for comment. Healy, for his part, has actually said a few things (although in often somewhat vague terms) about his time with Swift. And as for whether he had any songs about the relationship or break-up planned, Healy said on the Doomscroll podcast last year that he wasn't interested in mining those experiences for the next 1975 album. 'I think that that's an obvious thing to draw from. And I'm just not interested in it,' he said, adding: 'The idea of making a record about something that personally happened to me, that by the time I put it out is gonna be like two years old, I see people doing that as well, and it's not interesting.'

There Is No Concert Like Bad Bunny's Puerto Rico Residency
If Bad Bunny were your standard artist, he could have — and probably would have — orchestrated the kind of tour that guarantees superstardom and an ever-growing fanbase, filling up stadiums across the U.S. and the rest of the globe to rake in more attention and money. But precisely what's made him one of the most beloved and compelling figures in music in recent years is that he's never treated himself like the bottom line — instead, the goal for him has always been to show the world a little bit of Puerto Rico. This is part of the impulse behind 'No Me Quiero Ir De Aqui,' his 30-date residency in Puerto Rico's famed 18,500-person arena El Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot. The idea is not just intriguing from an artistic point of view, but genuinely poignant: Not only is it a celebration of home and roots and tradition, it's an invitation for fans outside of Puerto Rico to truly immerse themselves in the place he comes from. But on top of all of that, the residency is also a muscular three-hour, 30-song marathon, intensely high on spectacle and production, that functions as a full-voiced love letter to his country and his fellow Puerto Ricans. More from Rolling Stone 'Happy Gilmore 2': Hooray! Adam Sandler's Brawling Golf Bro Is Back Bad Bunny, Travis Scott, Saweetie, and All the Songs You Need to Know This Week Bad Bunny's Puerto Rico Residency Instantly Sold Out - Here's Where to Find 2025 Tickets Online That love and pride is reciprocal: In San Juan, a day before his show this Friday, bars and cars blasted his music on repeat. Giant murals with his face have gone up in the city; a few others feature Concho, the delightful toad character that's become a staple in videos and promo from his latest album DeBÍ TiRAR MÁS FOTOS, which the show is crafted around. Fans flooded the area outside of El Coliseo, which has turned into a mini-festival block, with food stands and pop-ups, touting flags and jibaro hats before rushing into the arena for the prompt 9 p.m. start time — no one wanted to miss a second of what Benito was about to put out there. Right on time, the lights went out, revealing the decadent stage, designed to look the untouched, undeveloped version of the island's oceans and mountains. Two dancers appeared onstage to talk about the history of Puerto Rico before the percussion of 'ALAMBRE PúA' boomed in. Bad Bunny debuted the song at the first show in the residency earlier this month, and on a Puerto Rican bomba rhythm that's allowed for traditional dancers to take the stage. From there, he bounced between songs from DeBÍ TiRAR MÁS FOTOS, like 'KETU TeCRÉ' and the Christmas cut 'PIToRRO DE COCO.' In between, little video snippets showed Concho the toad talking to Puerto Rican actor and filmmaker Jacobo Morales; both of them have been part of the album's storyline, with Morales playing an old man who has left home for a freezing cold, ice-filled new land and is constantly nostalgic for home. One of the best transitions of the night happens when Concho and Morales are reminiscing about the beaches in Puerto Rico, paving the way for the Puerto Rico band and guests Chuwi to lead the beach-loving chorus of the song 'Welita.' The traditional band Los Pleneros de la Cresta ends the section, giving the audience tons of plena. Also stunning is the range of the show: At one point, Bad Bunny pops up across the arena at a little pink house, known throughout the show as La Casita, and goes into raging house party mode, performing OG classics from his repertoire (like 'Bichiyal' and 'No Me Conoce', plus some of the most charged tracks off DeBÍ TiRAR MÁS FOTOS. Here, the crowd absolutely lost it when Young Miko came out of La Casita for 'Fina.' Following that segment, Bad Bunny remerged on the mainstage, this time with a full salsa band for a sped-up version of 'Callaíta,' and then his chart-topping salsa opus 'BAILE INoLVIDABLE.' For one of the verses, salsa legend Gilberto Santa Rosa came out, sending the audience into absolute chaos. At 62, the salsa bandleader sounded sharp as ever, leaving fans with a rendition of 'La Agarro Bajando' that left everyone screaming for an encore. Throughout the show, Bad Bunny reminded Puerto Ricans that so much of the magic of these shows comes directly from them (the first nine performances, save for some media invites, have been designed specifically for residents-only.) As the residency opens up to more tourists in later weeks, it's clear that the specific alchemy of Puerto Rico's spirit is going to be what creates once-in-a-lifetime experiences for attendees. The performance, yes, is undeniably powerful, but it's all mixed in with the energy and intimacy of being on the island and seeing so much of the experience behind the music firsthand. As the final thrum of 'LA MuDANZA' piped into close the show, Bad Bunny reminded Puerto Ricans that this was possible because of them, and he's done this all for them. Parting words came from bandleader and percussionist Julito Gastón as he exited the stage: 'Nunca paren de tocar su tambor.' 'Never stop beating your own drum.'
