The insider said: 'Charli and George fell in love with Sicily and knew they wanted to get married there. "It's incredibly secluded and romantic. There will be no expense spared. It's costing tens of thousands of pounds and visually it will be mesmerising. 'Charli and George said they wanted a massive party and there are no restrictions on when the bar has to close, so it can go on all night. 'They have both had such a busy summer with massive shows, but from mid-August they're able to slow down and focus on their big day.

Given there's no cut-off for the music or bar, I think this is going to be one epic celebration.

Charli XCX fears her next album will flop
The 32-year-old British singer released her smash album, Brat, last year - and the record proved to be the soundtrack to the summer. With the record being her second UK number one, and her highest charting album yet in the USA where it landed at number 3, she admits she has nerves about her next offering. She told Culted, "I don't really feel the pressure to create another record like Brat, because when I was making it, even though I really believed in it…'

Charli XCX Reveals ‘Brat' Follow-Up Plans
For the record, Charli XCX has no problem being a flop. We know she's nothing of the sort, as her album brat made waves and brought her artistry to the mainstream. The pop pioneer gained traction as songs like 'Von Dutch,' '360,' and 'Apple' found new audiences, making 2024 an undeniably brat summer. The project became her highest charting album as it hit No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, and it earned Charli her first three Grammy wins. Even now, an entire year after brat was released, new fans and OG Angels agree that brat summer is forever. According to the artist, she doesn't 'really feel the pressure' to chase the same commercial success with her next album. During an interview with Culted, she shared, 'I don't really feel the pressure to create another record like brat because when I was making it, even though I really believed in it and totally knew what I wanted to do with it, I had no idea how it would be received.' She added, 'I was really doing it for myself and marketing it in the way I wanted to for myself but I had no clue that people would kind of connect to it in the way that they did. So yeah, I don't really feel the pressure because I feel that you can never really do the same thing twice, and my next record will probably be a flop, which I'm down for, to be honest.' A few weeks before she dropped ^^^ this revelation, Charli opened up about not wanting to let go of brat in a candid TikTok video. 'It's really hard to let go of brat and let go of this thing that is so inherently me and become my entire life, you know?' she said in the clip. 'And I started thinking about culture and the kind of ebbs and flows of the lifespan of things and how when you get a level of success, you can kind of become oversaturated and then people want you to disappear, which I understand.' It's difficult to imagine Charli flopping anytime soon, as her 2020 track, 'party 4 u,' has reached new fans and is steadily climbing up the Billboard Hot 100. The song also went viral on TikTok with more than 2.9 million creator posts and 6.6 million views, and made its way into Spotify's Global Top 50 chart and U.S. Top 50 chart. Five years after its initial release, it's well on its way to becoming the song of summer 2025.

Charli xcx predicts Brat follow-up will 'flop'
Charli xcx predicts Brat follow-up will 'flop' he 'Von Dutch' singer is not feeling any "pressure" to top her chart-topping record (Image: AFP via Getty Images ) Charli xcx believes her next album will be a "flop" after the mind-blowing success of 'Brat'. The 'Von Dutch' singer is not feeling any "pressure" to top her chart-topping record which dominated mainstream pop in 2024 - but she doesn't anticipate her follow-up will do as well. She told Culted: "I was really doing it for myself. I had no clue people would connect with it the way they did. I don't feel the pressure because you can never really do the same thing twice. My next record will probably be a flop, which I'm down for." Charli recently admitted she is finding it "really hard to let go of" 'Brat'. The '360' hitmaker dominated pop culture with her 2024 LP and has admitted she would love to extend her 'Brat' era for as long as possible, because it's who she is, but she also understands that everything has a "lifespan". Addressing the future of 'Brat' in an honest TikTok, she began: "Yesterday I made this TikTok about, 'Summer again?' And I was kind of joking but also maybe serious. Article continues below "I don't know. Um, but it got me thinking about it is really hard to let go of 'Brat,' and let go of this thing that is so inherently me, and become my entire life." However, she admitted she likes the "tension of staying too long". She continued: "You know? I started thinking about culture and the ebbs and flows of the lifespan of things. Then, how when you get a level of success, you can become oversaturated and then people want you to disappear – which I understand, and I am sort of a believer in that. "I think it allows artists to retain their cool when they are so in everyone's faces, then they vanish. But I am also interested in the tension of staying too long. I find that quite fascinating in what that does." Hinting 'Brat' could stick around, Charli added: "But yeah, it's obviously hard to just be like, 'Ok. It's over now.' I kind of want it to go on and on and one because it is who I am. I've been thinking about 'Brat' long before the record came out. I've sat here on my own for two year prior thinking about how I'm going to communicate this record to the world. Not just the music but the whole visual identity of the album." Charli concluded: "I just kind of want it to keep going." Article continues below 'Brat' sparked a whole pop culture phenomenon with the 'Brat Girl' persona, while the sickly green colour used on the album cover inspired TikTok trends, fashion, and even a crossover into politics with the US presidential election when Charli branded Democrat Kamala Harris "Brat". The term was also crowned Collins Dictionary word of the year.
