Charli XCX Marries The 1975’s George Daniels In London
Charli XCX traded the title of “Brat” for bride this weekend.
The “360” singer tied the knot with George Daniel, drummer of the band The 1975, at London’s Hackney Town Hall on Saturday.
Looking understated and elegant in a Vivienne Westwood mini dress and white Jimmy Choo slingbacks, the bride was joined by her parents and several of her husband’s bandmates.
(The 1975’s polarizing frontman, Matty Healy, was not present, instead opting to attend the LA premiere of “I Know What You Did Last Summer” with fiancée and star Gabbriette Bechtel.)
Charli, full name Charlotte Aitchison, slyly acknowledged her nuptials in a TikTok post on Saturday.
Giving off her signature It Girl attitude in the video, the British pop star strutted into the room and struck a pose before swiftly turning back out the door.
Above her, white text said, “When George isn’t crying when he sees me walking down the aisle.”
“Luckily he did xx,” the caption below the TikTok said.

Charli and Daniel first met while collaborating on the 2021 track “Spinning” and announced their engagement in November 2023.
Beloved by die-hard pop fans for years, the “Apple” singer ascended to true diva status with the release of her sixth studio album, “Brat,” last June.
While summer 2024 was awash in her album’s iconic slime green hue, Charli ended up making an unexpected mark on the U.S. presidential race.
After declaring “Kamala IS brat” on X, supporters of Democrat Kamala Harris seized on the opportunity to align their candidate with the pop zeitgeist.
The phrase quickly became a meme, turning Charli’s campy, chaotic pop persona into a kind of political branding, one that tried to position the vice president as cool, uncompromising and, perhaps, just a little bit unhinged in the best way.
Months later, the Grammy winner told New York magazine that the post was never intended to be a political statement, but that, “To be on the right side of democracy, the right side of women’s rights, is hugely important to me.”
