From a Rejected Date to Baby on the Way: Inside Their Private Relationship
Harris and Hope have known each other for more than 15 years. Their story dates back to the early-2000s, when Hope turned down Harrisâs invitation for a date. At the time, she was 19 and he was 24, fresh off the success of his track âAcceptable in the 80s.â In an interview with You Magazine, Hope recalled the moment and said, âItâs something that we laughed about on our first proper date. We still laugh about it now.â
Before settling down with Hope, Harris was romantically linked to several high-profile figures, including pop superstar Taylor Swift. The two dated for over a year before their public split in 2016. Harris was also previously connected to singer Rita Ora and model Aarika Wolf.
The pair reconnected years later and eventually began dating. By 2022, they were engaged, and they tied the knot in a private ceremony in September 2023 at Hulne Priory in Northumberland, England.
Much like their engagement and wedding, the couple chose to keep their pregnancy out of the spotlight. Hope has yet to publicly speak about the news beyond the Instagram post, and Harris has stayed silent online. In a recent interview with The Independent, Hope explained her stance on privacy, saying, âMy private life is my private life, my personal life is my personal life â itâs sacred.â
