Matty Healy and Gabbriette's Wedding Set for July—Mom Confirms

The 1975 frontman Matty Healy is walking down the aisle sooner than you might think. During a Thursday, May 21 appearance on“Tom’s Hirschsprung’s Podcast,”Healy’s mom Denise Welch dropped the timeline everyone’s been waiting for: her son gets married in July.

Welch, 68, kept the announcement brief but enthusiastic, telling listeners she’s thrilled about the upcoming nuptials. The wedding will bring together Healy and his fiancée Gabbriette Bechtel, 28, who got engaged in June 2024 when Bechtel first revealed her custom black diamond ring on Instagram. The couple went public with their relationship back in September 2023, not long after Healy’s high-profile split from Taylor Swift.

What’s striking about Welch’s revelation is how grounded it feels—no tabloid speculation, no cryptic hints. She’s simply a proud mom sharing family news. When the engagement first broke, Welch was equally candid on U.K.’s“Loose Women,”calling Bechtel“absolutely gorgeous”and someone who’s“everything that I would want in a daughter-in-law.”It’s the kind of enthusiasm that suggests this wedding isn’t just happening—it’s being genuinely celebrated.

Bechtel has been plenty vocal about her own vision for married life. In a July 2024 British Vogue profile, she painted a picture of the future centered on presence and connection:“When I have kids, it’s going to be: dinner every night — no phones — to celebrate the smaller things and recognize people’s happiness.”And come February 2026, when she teamed up with Jimmy Choo for a bridal campaign, she shared her playful wedding-day philosophy with characteristic charm, noting that this is“a celebration, not a performance”and that looking good is important—but ultimately,“this is about love — and looking hot. But mainly about love.”

From a relationship that started quietly in Los Angeles to an engagement announced on Instagram to a July wedding, Healy and Bechtel seem to be moving at their own pace, unbothered by the noise. With his mom already counting down the days, it looks like the celebration is on.
