Newlyweds Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel shared a passionate kiss during a romantic date night at Carbone restaurant in Mayfair on Monday.
The 1975 frontman, 37, and the American model, 29, appeared closer than ever as they leaned in for a smooch before walking off arm-in-arm during their evening at the London celebrity hotspot. It appears that the honeymoon period is still not over for the couple, who could barely keep their hands off each other throughout the night.
Matty Healy cut a smart figure for the outing in a navy blazer, which he teamed with a dark grey T-shirt, light jeans and shiny black shoes. Gabbriette Bechtel glammed up in a chic black coat and black dress, styled with fishnet tights and towering heels as the pair enjoyed their night out.
Carbone is a high-profile Italian-American restaurant situated in Mayfair, an affluent district in the City of Westminster in central London. Known for its luxury hotels, high-end shopping and exclusive dining establishments, Mayfair is a popular haunt for international celebrities. The couple chose the acclaimed venue for their date night almost two months after tying the knot in California.
Hollywood Wedding Details
Matty Healy married Gabbriette Bechtel in a star-studded Hollywood ceremony in July, almost three years after the couple were first reported to be dating. The milestone wedding took place at Castillo del Lago, a historic 1920s Mediterranean Revival estate in Los Angeles previously owned by pop star Madonna.
A source exclusively told the Daily Mail that the lovebirds tied the knot underneath the famous Hollywood sign just as the sun began to set. The insider added that the bride walked down the aisle wearing a beautiful white dress and that the couple kissed at exactly 7 o'clock.
Celebrity guests cheering on the newlyweds included singer Charli XCX, model and actress Emily Ratajkowski, model Alex Consani and Healy's bandmates from The 1975. The bride was also joined on her special day by her in-laws, English television presenter Denise Welch and artist Lincoln Townley.
The wedding reception was also hosted at the property, where Healy entertained his guests and new wife by performing a musical set with The 1975. Castillo del Lago is perched high in the Hollywood Hills below Lake Hollywood, famed for its terraced gardens and nine-story tower offering panoramic views of the Los Angeles basin.
An official statement released by a representative for the couple to the Daily Mail confirmed the news: "Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel were married yesterday at a private ceremony in Los Angeles, attended by their family and close friends."
Relationship and Career Background
A separate source told the Daily Mail that the couple "work really well together" and are "absolutely in love with each other." The insider noted that "the right person came along that made him want to settle down," adding that it was not surprising because they are such a good fit that it makes sense. The source also described Bechtel as "the whole package."
Before achieving wider recognition as a model and social media influencer, Bechtel was the lead vocalist and songwriter for Nasty Cherry. The punk-pop band was formed in 2019 by English singer-songwriter Charli XCX. Bechtel was raised in Orange County, California, a suburban coastal region located directly south of Los Angeles.
It is believed that the couple may decide to live primarily in Los Angeles rather than residing at Healy's home in north London, allowing them to remain close to the bride's family.
Healy is best known as the lead singer and principal songwriter of The 1975, an English pop rock band formed in Wilmslow, Cheshire, in 2002. Alongside bandmates Adam Hann, Ross MacDonald and George Daniel, Healy has released multiple chart-topping albums in the United Kingdom and headlined major international music festivals.
Dating History and Parallel Romances
Healy and Bechtel were first linked in September 2023, following Healy's split from American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift that June. The couple were initially spotted enjoying a passionate public display of affection in New York City.
The pair announced their engagement in 2024 following a whirlwind nine-month romance. The announcement came shortly after Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce went public with their own relationship. A source noted that Healy and Swift "started dating these people at the same time; it's not that unusual."
Just two weeks before Healy and Bechtel held their wedding ceremony in California, Swift married Kelce at a lavish wedding hosted at Madison Square Garden, the iconic multi-purpose sports and entertainment arena in Midtown Manhattan, New York City.
