Dua Lipa and Callum Turner marry in intimate London ceremony
Pop phenomenon Dua Lipa and actor Callum Turner have finally said “I do” in a private London ceremony, just ahead of a lavish Italian celebration. Did anyone see this low-key vibe coming?
The wedding bells sounded for Dua Lipa and Callum Turner on Sunday, marking a joyful chapter for one of the most head-turning couples in entertainment. With the world’s press waiting for fireworks, the two stars chose a surprisingly intimate route: a civil ceremony at Old Marylebone Town Hall, London, witnessed by just eight friends and relatives. As the pair emerged, confetti flew and a black cab carried them off, outshining any blockbuster entrance they’ve delivered before.
Old-school romance and plans for a starry celebration
If you blinked, you could have missed it—yet no detail was left to chance. Dua Lipa, 30, stunned in a bespoke Schiaparelli gown by Daniel Roseberry, accessorised with a Stephen Jones headpiece, crisp white gloves and signature Louboutins. Callum, 36, chose a timeless navy suit, his tie matching the cool sophistication of the moment. Their love story began with a striking coincidence, both reading the same book while sitting together. Turner told The Sunday Times:
"We sat next to each other and realised we were reading the same book, which is crazy. It's called Trust, and I had just finished the first chapter, and I told her, and she looked at me and said, 'I just finished the first chapter too.' I said, 'So we're on the same page.'"
It’s rare you get a meet-cute this perfectly scripted—especially in showbiz.
According to The Sun, their married life is just beginning. Rumour has it they’ll enjoy three days of festivities in Sicily with a guest list including Charli XCX and Tove Lo, plus whispers of a performance by Sir Elton John. Fashion enthusiasts are excited as Simon Porte Jacquemus is expected to design at least one outfit for Dua for these celebrations. With Dua’s Radical Optimism tour grossing over £100 million from 81 dates, it’s clear why the Italian party was held back—balancing global fame with wedding plans is no small feat.
“I want to finish my tour, Callum's shooting [a movie], so we're just enjoying this period... I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding, or dreamt about what kind of bride I would be. All of a sudden, I'm like: 'Oh, what would I wear?'" she told British Vogue last June.
Marriage reflections and anticipation for the future
Behind the glamour and headlines, Dua Lipa’s personal reflections reveal a more intimate side. Sharing her excitement with British Vogue, she said she was "obsessed" with her engagement ring and found it "nice to know" that Callum knows her "very well". Timing remains a tricky topic for the couple; Dua explained:
“But it's like the constant question of when would there ever be a good time, how it would fit in with my job and how it would work if I went on tour, and how much time out I'd have to take.”
In the world of showbiz, love often contends with relentless schedules, yet the heart finds a way.
For now, London bore witness to the low-key magic of Dua and Callum’s union, but attention is shifting to Sicily where a starry, spectacular celebration lies ahead. Will fans get to see dazzling performances and jaw-dropping bridal looks? One thing’s for sure: this couple, who quite literally “started on the same page,” has plenty more chapters to write.
