The cameras flashed. The crowds gathered. But one familiar face vanished from sight. When Charli XCX tied the knot with The 1975’s George Daniel outside Hackney Town Hall on Saturday, fans noticed something startling. The band’s frontman was nowhere to be found.
The Brat queen looked radiant in her white mini-dress with a heart-shaped neckline. George beamed beside his new bride as they posed for photographs. Their intimate ceremony brought together just 20 close friends and family members. The couple walked to the venue, shunning Hollywood glamour for genuine simplicity.

A source tells me exclusively he flew "from the stag celebrations in Ibiza yesterday, to be with his fiancée, Gabbriette last night in LA where she has contractual commitments for her debut movie." https://t.co/Rs8NDVpptn
Healy chose to skip the ceremony entirely, opting instead to support his fiancée Gabbriette Bechtel at her movie premiere in Los Angeles. The timing couldn’t have been more awkward. While George celebrated his wedding day in London, Matty walked red carpets across the Atlantic.
The singer flew directly from the Ibiza stag celebrations to LA. He arrived at the “I Know What You Did Last Summer” screening dressed in his signature style. A leather jacket covered his white top with a red lightning bolt. Blue jeans completed the casual look. Sources close to the band revealed contractual obligations demanded Gabbriette’s presence at her debut film’s promotional events.
Ross MacDonald and Adam Hann attended the wedding ceremony, showing solidarity with their drummer. Their presence highlighted Matty’s notable absence even more starkly. The wedding photos tell the story – brotherhood intact, but one brother missing. Love conquered geography for some, but professional commitments won the day for others. The 1975’s dynamics continue evolving as personal relationships reshape their legendary friendship.
