The $30 million Italian getaway
Dua Lipa and Callum Turner are set to marry in style in Italy, with a three-day wedding extravaganza that promises to be the showbiz weding of the year.
The singer, 30, and the movie star, 36, have booked an entire floor of suites at the luxurious Villa Igiea hotel overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The ceremony is expected to take place at the 17th-Century Villa Valguarnera , perhaps the most sumptuous of the villas in Bagheria, an idyllic town ten miles away from the capital.
An echo of Sydney's 2024 institutional buy-up
Observers reckon it could be the island's most high-profile marriage since Al Pacino's Michael Corleone wed Apollonia Vitelli in 1972 classic The Godfather.
The guest list is shapiing up to be a 'Who's Who' of the celebrity universe, with Sir Elton John , Mark Ronson, and Charli XCX among the music stars billed to attend.
Donatella Versace and Simon Porte Jacquemus from the fashion world are also expected to make an appearance.
Who is the unnamed buyer?
According to sources, Dua will say 'I do' to Turner during the three-day wedding extravaganza, which is reported to begin on Thursday.
The singer has previously spoken of how happy she is in her relationship with Turner, telling Harper's Bazaar last year: 'I'm happier than ever, so it feels like I'm doing a disservice by not talking about it.'
When you're a public figure, anything that's very personal is very vulnerable. It's not like I don't want to share it.'
A familiar pattern from the 2019 crash
New Rules singer Dua has previously spoken of how she fell in love with their wedding location during a visit to the Italian island on holiday .
On Friday, the Grammy winner was spotted in Rome as the countdown began for her nuptials.
Sources said Sir Elton, who Dua collaborated with on the 2021 song Cold Heart, could be among those set to perform for the wedding party.
