With hit tracks like "360,” “Guess” and "Apple,” we’re officially living in Charli XCX’s golden age. The 32-year-old Brit, born Charlotte Emma Aitchison, has been a pop-music figure for 15 years, having success with early singles like “Nuclear Seasons,” "You're the One" and the inescapable "I Love It" before her big breakthrough record Sucker in 2014.
A decade later, 2024 truly brought the singer-songwriter’s popularity to stratospheric new heights with the release of her rave sixth studio album Brat, which was everywhere this past year. We’re talking internet memes, awards ceremonies—Brat was nominated for nine Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year—and even the White House, with U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris' memorably adopting the Brat “aesthetic” for her presidential campaign.

And not only was the album a critical and commercial success but also a personal one, as Charli’s own fiancé/possibly husband was a producer on the smash record. With Charli XCX currently jet-setting around the world on her Brat Tour, you might be wondering about the man who will no doubt be in the airline seat next to her providing support. Here is everything we know about who Charli XCX is engaged to, as well as the star’s past romantic history.
Who is Charli XCX’s fiancé, George Daniel?
Charli XCX is officially engaged to (and possibly married to, more on that later) George Daniel, a 34-year-old British drummer, record producer and electronic musician. Daniel is best known as a member of the English pop-rock band The 1975, alongside bandmates Matty Healy, Ross MacDonald and Adam Hann. With the band, Daniel has received numerous awards over the years, including Brit Awards and a 2020 Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song for their single “Give Yourself a Try.”
In a December 2023 interview with the Spout Podcast, Charli XCX opened up about being in a romance with an equally musical partner: “It’s funny, I have never sort of been in a relationship with someone that I’ve worked with, so it’s like a whole new dynamic. But it’s cool. There will be a couple of songs that he’s worked on with me.”

That is the question. While the couple have not announced their marriage publicly. Several outlets reported that the pair had married in a private ceremony in Slovakia in January 2024. Charli posts on social media regularly and has not verified the information, so it remains to be seen if they are actually married or still just engaged.

Charli XCX first connected with The 1975 and Daniel in 2021 while working on the collaborative single “Spinning" with No Rome. Their romantic relationship started soon thereafter, with the pair publicly announcing their power-couple romance in May 2022. (Charli hard-launched her relationship status by posting photos of the duo vacationing together on her socials, but those have since been deleted.)

When did Charli XCX and George Daniel get engaged?
The pro musicians became engaged in November 2023, with the “Boom Clap” star announcing the news on her Instagram account. She posted a photo carousel showing the couple in the middle of a sweet smooch, as well as a snap of the diamond engagement ring, which was presented on a tray in between two cups of tea. “Charli xcx and george daniel f–king for life!!!” the bride-to-be excitedly captioned the post.
Which Charli XCX songs are about George Daniel?
Charli and her musical beau have collaborated creatively over the years, including on her culture-shaking Brat album, with the performer sharing on the Spout Podcast: “We’ve done a couple of things together. He's not really all over it, but we’ve got a few ideas in the works.” Though Daniel produced several of her tracks, including "Club Classics" and "Apple,” he didn’t work on the song “Talk Talk,” but Charli did reveal that the track was inspired by her famous fiancé.
In a June 2024 TikTok video, Charli XCX revealed that “Talk Talk” was inspired by a "very specific moment" with her now-fiancé, George Daniel, back at the 2020 NME Awards. “We were at the NME Awards, we were both sat on different tables, and we were like texting each other, but we weren’t hanging out,” the artist recalled. “But we were both looking over at each other—it was very like, one of us would look, and the other one would look away, and then just vice versa.”
She continued: “You know, when you just feel like someone is watching you, you can feel a hole burning in the back of your head or something like that. It was very much that moment.”

Prior to her engagement to George Daniel, Charlie XCX was in a long-term romantic relationship with video game developer Huck Kwong; they were on and off for the better part of a decade. Things seemingly got rocky between the twosome during the COVID-19 lockdown, when Charli was living in Los Angeles and Huck was across the country in New York City. The pop star revealed on Zane Lowe's podcast in May 2020: "We were living on separate sides of the country; even though we were physically far apart, we were emotionally quite distant as well."
During that podcast interview, Charli XCX shared that her song "I Finally Understand" was inspired by her relationship with Kwong. “I'm writing about what I know and we're quarantined together and our relationship wasn't in a brilliant place prior to quarantine.” They seemingly split up shortly after.
Is Charli XCX queer?
Despite the fact that the singer has a robust fanbase in the LGBTQ+ community, Charli XCX does not publicly identify as queer. However, she has been an outspoken ally for her queer fans throughout her career, regularly collaborating with queer artists—including Troye Sivan, Kim Petras, Brooke Candy and more—and even put on the queer-focused Go West Fest alongside Sivan, with proceeds benefiting the GLAAD organization.
“The LGBTQ community has shaped who I am as an artist today,” she told Billboard in a love letter to the LGBTQ community. “I am thankful every day for my friends, fans and collaborators, who belong to this very special community. Without you I’d be nothing.”
