Real reason why Matty Healy wasn't at bandmate George's wedding to Charli XCX, after he's missing from pics
The Brat superstar and overall pop icon married her partner George Daniel in an intimate ceremony at Hackney Town Hall, London on 19th July 2025.
The inhabitants of East London were gagged to see music royalty on full display as Charli cosied up to George, the drummer in the band The 1975 and a producer and songwriter, in what appeared to be a white Cora mini dress by Vivienne Westwood, white Jimmy Choo slingback heels, wraparound black shades and white veil as the duo posed for pics on the town hall's steps.
It was a cute, cosy ceremony with twenty of the couple's close friends and family in appearance. However, some fans of The 1975 were shocked to see that George's bandmate and close friend Matty Healy was not in attendance.
After doing some sleuthing, it appears that Matty was in LA to attend a screening of I Know What You Did Last Summer, in which his fiancée Gabbriette stars.
It seems like Matty was supporting his partner during an unfortunate scheduling clash with the wedding, however, this is just speculation and has yet to be confirmed by any of the parties involved.
What we can say is that there appears to be no ill-feeling as Matty was reportedly in attendance at George's stag do, which allegedly took place in Ibiza, according to The Sun.
It is also rumoured that Charli and George are planning another, larger wedding celebration in Sicily later in the year - and it seems likely that Matty will be in attendance there.
One thing we can, for sure, confirm? Well, according to Charli's very own TikTok, George shed a tear when he saw her walk down the aisle!
Suddenly, we believe in love...

Actor Neal McDonough Breaks No-Sex-Scene Rule
Neal McDonough just broke one of his major acting rules, but the way he went about it might surprise you. There's a reason you've never seen Neal in any intimate scenes on the big and small screen. The 59-year-old actor, who also happens to be a devout Catholic, swore to only kiss the lips of his wife, and he's upheld that commitment throughout his 30+ years working in Hollywood. Neal married South African model, Ruvé Robertson, back in December 2003 after the two met in the United Kingdom while he was filming Band of Brothers. The couple celebrated their 21st wedding anniversary last year, and together they have five children — Morgan, Catherine, London, Clover, and James. 'I won't kiss any other woman because these lips are meant for one woman,' Neal said of his wife. Thankfully, Neal has been able to play some amazing roles despite the restriction, like when he landed a spot on the hit soapy drama Desperate Housewives. 'When [creator] Marc Cherry signed me, I said, 'I'm sure you know, but I won't kiss anybody,'' Neal said. 'He was like, 'But this is Desperate Housewives!' I said, 'I know.' He paused for about five seconds and said, 'All right, I'm just going to have to write better.' And we had a great time.' But not everyone in the business was willing to be so accommodating. Neal recalled getting fired from a show due to his refusal to shoot those scenes. He also felt like he was being blacklisted in the industry for a while because of it. 'I was [surprised], and it was a horrible situation for me,' Neal said of being "fired from Scoundrels" for not filming sex scenes with costar Virginia Madsen. 'After that, I couldn't get a job because everybody thought I was this religious zealot. I am very religious. I put God and family first and me second." "That's what I live by. It was hard for a few years. Then [Band of Brothers producer] Graham Yost called me and said, 'Hey, I want you to be the bad guy on Justified. I knew that was my shot back at the title.' And he's been on a roll ever since, starring in popular projects like Captain America: The First Avenger, Minority Report, Star Trek: First Contact, Sonic the Hedgehog, The Flash, and more. Well, it looks like Neal finally made an exception to his no on-screen kissing there's a twist. He revealed on TikTok that he convinced Ruvé to play the leading lady he'd smooch in his latest film The Last Rodeo, and it worked out perfectly. "Many people out there have asked me what it's like to have your first screen kiss, which I did in The Last Rodeo," Neal said on TikTok. "The reason it's so special to me, as everyone knows, I won't kiss another woman on screen, but now I get to kiss the one, the only, my best friend, and the love of my life — my wife Rose, in The Last Rodeo." He was referring to the name of Ruvé's character in the movie, Rose Wainright. "She was amazing. The film is amazing. But to have my first screen kiss and to actually play the hero, and kiss the girl in the end, is something that I've never done, but something I've always wanted to do my whole career. Now I get to do it. Comments were filled with people applauding him for staying true to his morals: The Last Rodeo is currently available to stream on select platforms. What are your thoughts on this? Let me know in the comments!

The Coldplay kiss-cam scandal explains why concerts aren't fun anymore
What happens at a concert no longer stays at a concert. Just ask Andy Byron. A week ago, most people likely hadn't heard of Byron or his tech startup, Astronomer. Now, after Byron, then the CEO, was filmed on TikTok getting cozy with his HR head Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay concert, the company has become "a household name," as Astronomer's interim CEO Pete DeJoy recently put it. (Byron has resigned.) The video, in which Byron and Cabot appear to embrace until they realize they're on the jumbotron and dodge the camera, was instant viral fodder last week. The internet reacted with characteristic hysteria, rushing to circulate the best parodies and snarkiest memes. Even brands like Netflix and StubHub got in on the fun. I understand why. This story has a lot of wacky, almost-unbelievable details that make it feel like a sitcom subplot somewhere between "The Office" and "Black Mirror." To be a CEO caught canoodling with your HR chief is one thing, but on the jumbotron… during a "kiss cam" bit… at a Coldplay concert? Absurd. To top it all off, the couple reacted so suspiciously during their moment in the spotlight that Chris Martin, the "Viva La Vida" singer himself, told the crowd of about 60,000 people, "Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy!" Screenwriters everywhere must be seething with envy that they didn't write this themselves. The problem is, these are not characters on a TV show. These are real people who were caught in a vulnerable moment, which a stranger filmed and decided to use as TikTok fodder. The original video has accumulated over 122 million views and 10 million likes — and that doesn't account for the many, many reposts on Instagram and X. To be fair, the original uploader, 28-year-old Grace Springer, never could have known that her TikTok would attract attention of this magnitude; the algorithm is a fickle beast. But its popularity proves that the internet's appetite for drama, even at the expense of non-famous people, is all too predictable. Springer has used the scandal to amplify her own social media presence, sharing a series of follow-up videos that show her celebrating the original TikTok's high engagement and poking fun at the personal and professional destruction left in its wake. "A part of me feels bad for turning these people's lives upside down," Springer told The UK Sun, "but, play stupid games… win stupid prizes." The threat of going viral is a byproduct of our smartphone-obsessed lives Springer's flippant attitude is exactly why it feels so risky to release your inhibitions in the modern world — even at concerts, where the entire point is to enjoy the raw, cathartic, often visceral power of live music without fear of judgment. Springer said in a follow-up video that she had her phone out because she was hoping to catch a glimpse of herself on the jumbotron, not to film a scandalous moment between coworkers. But while going viral wasn't the plan, it wasn't a fluke, either. Filming at concerts is practically second nature now — some fans even livestream full concerts on TikTok, start to finish, just for the clout. These days, it's safe to assume every moment of a major event has been preserved on at least one person's device. God forbid you do anything embarrassing. I'm not saying that it's OK for the CEO of a multimillion-dollar company to canoodle with his HR chief in the middle of Gillette Stadium. I am saying the human experience is messy, and it feels like we're losing our ability to respect that from a healthy distance. People at concerts have become way too comfortable milking strangers for content, even for the most harmless of perceived indiscretions: dancing. Concertgoers often go viral for dancing too much, dancing too little, or dancing in a way that others deem "inappropriate" for the setting. The irony, of course, is that dancing is only fun if it's freeing. Dancing that is carefully composed to suit an imaginary standard of behavior is hardly dancing at all. Live music is meant to be a balm for self-consciousness and shame, not a catalyst for those feelings. Yet the scourge of peer-sanctioned surveillance has made concerts, clubs, and parties feel like minefields. I'm not the only person who's noticed this shift — or the only person who's keen to resist it. On Sunday, rapper Tyler, the Creator previewed his new album, "Don't Tap the Glass," at a 300-person listening party where phones and cameras were forbidden. "I asked some friends why they don't dance in public and some said because of the fear of being filmed," he wrote in a social media statement. "I thought damn, a natural form of expression and a certain connection they have with music is now a ghost. It made me wonder how much of our human spirit got killed because of the fear of being a meme." Tyler reported that his phone- and camera-less night was a success. "Everyone was dancing, moving, expressing, sweating. It was truly beautiful," he continued. "There was a freedom that filled the room." Tyler could not have chosen a more appropriate time to push that message. Every time someone becomes the internet's punching bag, our collective "fear of being a meme" grows deeper. I don't want to live in a world of derealization, where I have to constantly perform perfection for cameras I can't see and self-righteous filmmakers I've never met. Does that sound fun to you?

Influencer Karissa Collins Apologizes for Video of Her 11 Kids Hitting Her Stomach Amid Miscarriage
Parenting influencer Karissa Collins has responded after a video showing several of her 11 children hitting her belly in the midst of a miscarriage sparked backlash. 'I apologize. When I posted that video, what was on other people's minds was not on my mind at all,' Collins, 41, said in a Thursday, July 17, TikTok video. 'I never thought of it that way. It was a cute moment with me and my children. I didn't think anyone would even watch it.' Karissa announced in a since-deleted video earlier in July that she and her husband, Mandrae Collins, were expecting their 12th baby. Days later, she revealed that she had suffered a missed miscarriage and wanted to let the fetal tissue pass naturally without medical intervention. At the same time, Karissa uploaded a TikTok clip of some of her younger children playfully smacking her belly. (All of the posts mentioning Karissa's pregnancy announcement and miscarriage have since been deleted.) 'I don't do clickbait. I don't like controversy,' Karissa said on Thursday, addressing the backlash to her belly video. 'I don't post offensive things for followers. I don't want followers like that. I'm not all about a following. I am just about sharing the message that God has given me, and the ministry that I have, which is that you can trust God with your womb. … We encourage women to trust God with how many children he wants to give.' Every Time Kourtney Kardashian Clapped Back at Pregnancy Rumors Over the Years The online creator also offered context behind the now-viral video, claiming that her kids were 'having fun' and showing off their own stomachs after a family meal. 'I said, 'Y'all want to see a big belly, let me show you my belly.' I have a big belly. I have extra chunk from being pregnant 15 times that I am currently trying to work off,' she explained. 'I shared the video because my kids saw my stomach, and they just started laughing. They were squeezing it like slime and Squishmallows. It was the funniest thing. I never wanted to forget that moment of them finding so much joy in my belly.' According to Karissa, her 4-year-old daughter did end up hitting her belly 'a little too hard.' @thecollinskids Apology and explanation. #family #faith #miscarriage ♬ original sound - karissacollins 'I did say 'ow' in the video, but they were not hurting me,' she stressed. 'They were not hurting anything inside of me.' Elsewhere in her apology video, Karissa clapped back at online criticism of her big family in general. Pregnant Jessa Duggar Addresses 'Rude' Comments About Big Family While Expecting 6th Baby 'If you haven't had 11 children, I don't feel like you have the right to say it's impossible or that you can't do it,' she said. 'I used to say that when I had five children. … I had no idea that God had planned for a big family for us. We simply believe that we are to live life of faith, and that children are eternal [and that] they have value. Lots of value.' Karissa further noted that she doesn't understand how certain social media users can 'degrade other families' by sharing online criticism. 'That's called clickbait, and it is what it is,' she said. 'I will not call out on my platform. My platform is just to share the messages that the Lord gives me and to share the blessings that he has given us, and to show other women that it is possible to trust God and to be joyful and enjoy motherhood.'
