The couple dated for around two years before tying the nuptial knot. They first sparked romance rumours in early 2024 and made their relationship public later that year. The singer confirmed their engagement in June 2025.
The couple held an intimate civil ceremony at London’s Old Marylebone Town Hall on May 31, 2026, surrounded by close friends and family. They followed it with a lavish celebration in Sicily.
