Matty Healy & Gabbriette Bechtel marry at Madonna’s former estate

The world of music and high society was buzzing this weekend as Matty Healy and model Gabbriette Bechtel tied the knot in a ceremony that blended romance, celebrity glamour, and a dash of bohemian chic.

The wedding itself took place on Saturday, July 18, at the stunning Castillo del Lago—Madonna’s former estate in Los Angeles. The celebration was packed with stars, including Charli XCX and her partner George Daniel, along with a host of friends and family who turned the occasion into a truly star-studded affair.

The atmosphere was electric, capturing a moment for fans and attendees as the couple celebrated their union amidst the Hollywood Hills backdrop. Social media quickly filled with glimpses of the happy couple kissing at the altar and posing for photographs at the Spanish Colonial Revival Mansion.

Before the big day, Matty Healy had already been enjoying some festive moments; he recently performed at a Malibu stag do with a 1975 tribute band, showing off his connection to the iconic group before moving on to this monumental chapter of his life.

The engagement leading up to the wedding was well-documented. Matty and Gabbriette confirmed their engagement during a Charli XCX show in 2024, and Healy’s mother, Denise Welch, shared her delight, noting that she had known for a few weeks that her son had gotten engaged, adding that she couldn’t be happier about her daughter-in-law.

While the personal spotlight shone brightly, attention also turned to The 1975. The band has been actively creating, with whispers circulating that they are working on two new albums. One of these projects is rumored to be titled ‘DOGS’, a name that recently flashed by the band at their Glastonbury headline performance.

Manager Jamie Oborne recently commented on the forthcoming record, stating that it is already “pretty extraordinary,” suggesting that the band has earned the time and space needed to craft something exceptional. The history books are certainly in the making.

Their previous work, ‘Being Funny In A Foreign Language’, released in 2022, was highly acclaimed, earning four stars and being celebrated as “back to their very best.” This success sets a high bar for their next creative venture.

In a related move, the band’s momentum continues with collaborations. The 1975 have teamed up with Tiny Habits for the tender single ‘Anything He Was’ and are preparing to release their new album, ‘Keepers’, signaling that creativity remains at the forefront of their journey.
