Who is Charli XCX dating?

Charli XCX dated The 1975's drummer George Daniel for a year before they announced their engagement in November 2023.

The pair publicly broke the news with an Instagram post of the two embracing one another, captioned, "Charli XCX and George Daniel f******g for life!!!" and also included a photo of the engagement ring.

Per People, Charli "first quietly shared the news" via "a post of her engagement ring on her private Instagram intended for her fans" a day before announcing the engagement on her public account.

According to the publication, the musicians "first connected" while collaborating on the song Spinning in 2021.

Charli confirmed their relationship by sharing vacation photos of the pair on Instagram in May 2022.

As People notes, George is a "founding member" of The 1975, "the English pop-rock band that originated in Manchester during his early high school years in 2002."

He replaced Matty Healy as the drummer, the latter who had become the group's lead singer.

Charli was previously with her ex-boyfriend Huck Kwong for over seven years.

According to Yahoo via Life & Style, their romance was "on and off until some time before she got together with George in 2021 or early 2022."

The former couple began dating in 2014.

In 2020, the singer shared that quarantining with the video game producer during the coronavirus pandemic "saved" their relationship.
