LONDON, UK – Multiple UK media outlets have confirmed that global pop sensation Dua Lipa and *Fantastic Beasts* franchise star Callum Turner have exchanged vows in a quiet, low-key civil ceremony held in central London this Sunday. The small, private event, held at Old Marylebone Town Hall, was only attended by a tight circle of the couple’s closest family members and friends, aligning with their long-stated preference for keeping their personal relationship out of the constant glare of tabloid attention.
Leading British tabloids *The Sun* and the Daily Mail published candid photos of the newlyweds exiting the town hall following the service, giving fans their first look at the wedding day looks. Thirty-year-old Lipa, a multiple Grammy Award-winner and one of the UK’s biggest modern pop exports, stepped out in a custom ivory wedding dress and matching hat crafted exclusively for her by luxury Italian fashion house Schiaparelli. Turner, 36, who gained global fame for his role as Theseus Scamander in the *Fantastic Beasts* film series and is widely tipped as a frontrunner to take on the iconic role of James Bond, complemented his bride in a tailored dark blue suit.
According to reporting from *The Sun*, the couple is already planning a far more lavish celebration to follow their intimate civil service. Sources told the outlet that the pair will host a three-day, luxury celebratory party for their wider circle of celebrity friends and industry contacts at a venue in Sicily, scheduled to kick off at the end of next month. The couple have been linked romantically since early 2024, and Lipa first confirmed their engagement and plans to wed in an interview with *British Vogue* last year. Reps for both Lipa and Turner declined multiple requests for comment from Agence France-Presse when reached for confirmation of the news.
For Lipa, the wedding caps a years-long ascent from a young musician with Kosovo-Albanian heritage to one of the most recognizable pop stars on the planet. The daughter of Kosovo migrants who settled in London before she was born, Lipa earned her first mainstream breakout hit with 2016’s *Be The One*, and has since gone on to earn dozens of chart-topping singles, multiple industry awards, and a loyal global fanbase. Beyond her music career, she has also made frequent forays into high fashion, regularly headlining runways and collaborating with luxury brands like Schiaparelli. Turner, meanwhile, has built a decades-long career across film and television, with his star rising steadily enough in recent years that bookmakers have consistently ranked him among the top candidates to replace Daniel Craig as the next James Bond, a role that remains unconfirmed by studio Eon Productions.
