Dua Lipa and husband Callum Turner’s famous friends have started arriving in Italy ahead of their second wedding, which is due to start later tonight
Dua Lipa and Callum Turner’s A-list pals have started arriving in Sicily ahead of their lavish second wedding. The 30-year-old pop princess and actor Callum, 36, tied the knot on Sunday at Old Marylebone Town Hall in London.
They had just eight close friends and family members in attendance. But their celebrations are continuing this weekend in Italy, and it’s claimed the couple have splashed out over £1million on the nuptials.
And while Dua and Callum have been enjoying some downtime with one another at the trendy Villa Igiea Hotel, which costs a whopping £6,000 per night, her friends have also been enjoying the sunshine. Pop star Charli XCX and her husband, The 1975 rocker George Daniel, have now arrived.
In pictures obtained by the Daily Mail, Charli opted for a casual look in a brown top and black jeans, carrying an oversized bag on her shoulder. Meanwhile, her husband kept hydrated, carrying his own bag and sipping on a bottle of water.
Tame Impala singer Kevin Parker and his wife Sophie have also been spotted at the location, where Dua and Callum have reportedly booked out an entire floor overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. The hotel “offers spacious privacy in fresh, contemporary surrounds adorned in local artwork with a separate living room and the added luxury of a breezy sea-view terrace, outfitted with lounges and sunbeds perfect for leisurely mornings and relaxing afternoons.
“Luxuriate in your super king-sized bed, which can be twinned as requested. Soak up the glamour of your spacious marble bathroom with a separate bathtub, walk-in shower and superb Irene Forte Skincare toiletries.”
It’s understood that Dua will don a custom-made Versace gown for her grand Italian occasion, given her intimate friendship with Donatella Versace, while fashion designer Simon Porte Jacquemus is creating at least one outfit for her celebrations.
Approximately 300 friends and family members are anticipated to descend upon Palermo, with private jet slots secured and a fleet of chauffeur-driven vehicles arranged for guest transportation. Tove Lo features on the guest list, with rumours swirling that Sir Elton John, her 2021 collaborator, might take to the stage during the festivities, according to reports.
“They have rented out multiple huge venues for the multi-event extravaganza,” a source revealed to the publication. Among the locations is Galleria Moderna, which will be shut for an exclusive cocktail reception on Friday afternoon, at a cost of €10,000. It’s understood that an additional €10,000 has been paid to Bagheria council, where Dua and Callum will host another reception on Saturday.
Callum popped the question to the Levitating hitmaker in December 2024, less than a year into their relationship. Dua subsequently confirmed the engagement during a British Vogue interview last June. However, the pair were in no hurry to arrange their nuptials, as Dua was midway through her colossal 81-date Radical Optimism Tour, which raked in over £100million.
She told the glossy outlet: “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 was “obsessed” with her engagement ring, noting it was “nice to know” that Callum, who she’ll be spending the rest of her life with, knows her “very well”. Yet while she and Callum would love to welcome children, the singer acknowledged she didn’t know when would be a “good time” due to their crazy schedules. She said: “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.”
