International pop star Dua Lipa and actor Callum Turner tied the knot at a low-profile ceremony in London last weekend. The couple, who had been engaged since December 2024, held the occasion at a venue renowned for several famous celebrity weddings in the past.
Dua Lipa is indisputably one of the biggest British names in pop, already owning three Grammy Awards and seven BRITs, as well as two Guinness World Records for her incredible ticket sales and Spotify streaming figures. At the age of 30, she has already made multiple lists by publications like British Vogue and Time for most influential celebrities – outside of music, her philanthropic work and political outspokenness have made her a prominent figure in advocacy for peace initiatives and LGBTQ rights. Her now-husband Callum Turner, is an English actor best known for his roles in the Fantastic Beasts film series, and for his BAFTA-nominated performance in 2019 BBC series The Capture. 36 year-old Turner has been frequently rumoured to be a front-running candidate for the mantle of movie super-spy James Bond, following Daniel Craig’s retirement from the character in 2021.
The pair’s relationship was first reported in January 2024, when their appearances together started a paparazzi frenzy. Later that year, Lipa headlined Glastonbury Festival in June, before news of their engagement was reported by British Vogue in December. Lipa said to them at the time “It’s very exciting. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don’t know, be best friends forever – it’s a really special feeling.”
Reports came out yesterday that the couple had married in a private civil ceremony at London’s Old Marylebone Town Hall on Sunday the 31st of May. The venue previously held several celebrity weddings, including those of Sir Paul McCartney to Linda Eastman and Nancy Shevell, and Oasis’s Liam Gallagher’s marriages to Patsy Kensit and later Nicole Appleton.

Dua Lipa was reportedly wearing a Schiaparelli Haute Couture outfit created by American designer Daniel Roseberry, while Callum Turner donned a stylish navy-blue suit. The couple were surrounded on the day by their nearest friends and relatives, with an insider telling People magazine that “The London ceremony was exactly what they wanted. It was intimate and meaningful, and they were surrounded by loved ones.”
The next plans for the happy couple allegedly involve three days of celebrations in Sicily at the end of next week. As it stands, Dua Lipa has not released her own new music since 2024 album ‘Radical Optimism’, the touring cycle of which ended last December. However, her performance of ‘Dance The Night’ and ‘Electricity’ while celebrating Mark Ronson’s Lifetime Achievement Award at this year’s BRITs ceremony was a highlight of the year so far. As for Turner, GQ reported last week that auditions for James Bond are underway, and have confirmed the murmurs that he might be the top candidate.
