Former YouTuber Dani Cimorelli Expecting First Baby with Musician Husband Emmyn Calleiro
Dani was formally a member of her sisters' band, Cimorelli, while Calleiro is the lead singer for the band Games We PlayNEED TO KNOW Former YouTuber Dani Cimorelli and Emmyn Calleiro are going to be parents The Games We Play singer announced the news on his Instagram Dani was formerly a member of the band Cimorelli, which was started by her sisters and had a presence on YouTubeDani Cimorelli and Emmyn Calleiro are going to be parents! The Games We Play singer, 25, shared the exciting news on his Instagram, posting a few photos of himself and his wife Dani, also 25, who is best known for formerly being a part of her sisters' band, Cimorelli, which found fame on YouTube. In the first photo, Emmyn can be seen putting an arm around his wife and smiling. Dani smiled and leaned into her husband, wearing a cropped black T-shirt that showed off her belly. "In case you don't see me as much on here - wanted to fill you in that I'm going to become a dad this month and I'm also halfway done with my second album," Emmyn wrote in his caption. "If u miss me, play my music that's on Spotify and know that I'm changing diapers and writing new songs for you. Trying to make something special, see u soon ❤️." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Dani left Cimorelli in January 2020 after 10 years in the band. At the time, she said "she wants to pursue other career paths outside of music and has made the decision to move on from the band," per a statement released by her sisters. Dani and Emmyn got engaged in August 2018 and got married later that year when they were both 19. In a video posted to their shared YouTube channel, the couple spoke about how difficult it was to get engaged and married that young. "I'm not going to lie guys, it was probably one of the worst few months of my entire life," Dani said at the time. "August, September, October, November. Some of the worst times of my entire life. Not because of our wedding, but because again, like I said, it was really difficult being 19 and engaged." "Just because so many people don't approve or like it or say negative things or whatever on the Internet or in person," she explained. "Just so many things." Then in 2023, Dani and Emmyn shared on their respective Instagram Stories that they were no longer together. Although the image is no longer up, a fan posted their statement to TikTok. "Hey guys, we wanted to let you know that we are not together anymore. We still love each other a lot and are still each other's biggest fans. We are both okay and are still friends ❤️ — Dani and Emmyn," the statement read. However, in January 2024, the couple appeared to have reconciled when Emmyn posted a video to his TikTok about his band Games We Play's new song, "Girl-Shaped Crater." "I fell in love for the first time when I was 18. She was the most amazing girl I'd ever met. From the moment I met her, I knew she was the one for me," Emmyn wrote over the video, which featured his new song. "After almost 5 years, we split up for a while. Being apart from each other felt wrong. It only made me want her more." "I always felt like she didn't realize how amazing she really was. I wrote this song to tell her, and almost didn't get to show her," he continued. "It's how I felt when we were 18, and it's how I feel now. (We're back together now).

Prince William & Kate Middleton's Kids' Relationship Goes Beyond Royal Formalities, Says ‘Source'
Prince William and Kate Middleton's kids have always been on their best behavior in public. While onlookers have noticed the children suppressing giggles when together, most are not well aware of their dynamic. A palace source recently claimed that the relationship between the three siblings reportedly goes beyond royal formalities. For those unversed, the Prince and Princess of Wales share three children — 12-year-old Prince George, 10-year-old Princess Charlotte, and 7-year-old Prince Louis. Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are each other's 'security blanket,' says 'source' Prince William and Kate Middleton's kids — Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis — share a close bond. According to Rob Shuter's report, a source from the palace said that the trio is 'each other's security blanket.' Amid public and media scrutiny, their parents have 'worked hard' to teach them to rely on one another and 'find strength in each other.' Elaborating on the siblings' bond, the insider mentioned that they are like normal brothers and sisters. They also fight, make up, have 'little rituals,' 'inside jokes,' and funny nicknames for each other. George is the eldest and serves as the protective and responsible brother to his younger siblings. He is also next in line to the crown after Prince William. Charlotte, on the other hand, is said to be the one who can keep her brothers in line. Meanwhile, the youngest prince is 'constantly clowning around' and can easily 'lighten any tense moment.' Although they have different personalities, the dynamic between the little ones is 'very sweet — and very real.' 'They communicate in a way only siblings who really get each other can,' the source stated. On July 22, Prince George turned 12. The official Instagram account of the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a glimpse of the trio's bond. Initially, the video focused on William and Kate's eldest son, followed by smiling shots of all three kids. From goofing around to holding hands, the children gave the picture of a happy family.
