Full Story
Tom Grennan has opened up about his enduring relationship with Danniella Carraturo, whom he met several years ago during a night out. The couple briefly separated during the Covid pandemic but ultimately reconciled, leading to their engagement two years after they first connected.
The singer-songwriter, 30, shared that their initial meeting took place in an elevator in 2020, where they struck up a conversation while heading out for a cigarette. In an appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O Show, Grennan recounted the moment, saying, “Bonded over a ciggie and that was it.” However, he humorously admitted to misinterpreting the situation, as he leaned in for a kiss, only for Danniella to respond with confusion. He recalled turning the awkward moment into an opportunity by asking her to exchange phone numbers.
While their romance blossomed initially, it faced challenges, and they separated for a period. Grennan suggested that the pressures of lockdown contributed to this split, stating he felt unprepared for the commitment. Their connection reignited when he saw a photo of Danniella online, prompting him to reach out with a compliment that led to him having to “grovelling” to win her back.
In a past interview with Rolling Stone Australia/NZ, Grennan revealed that his single “Remind Me” was inspired by Danniella, calling her his “best mate” and expressing that the song was about re-establishing ties with someone meaningful. He also reflected on how their relationship had transformed his life for the better.
In June 2022, Grennan and Carraturo were spotted at Wimbledon shortly following their engagement announcement, with Danniella displaying her engagement ring. The couple wed in May of the following year in a charming ceremony in Majorca, surrounded by family and friends. Attendees later described the celebration as filled with a euphoric atmosphere, with photos shared across social media capturing the joy of the event.
Grennan later confirmed their marriage via social media, posting a picture of the couple in a scenic field, with the heartfelt caption, “Life starts now.” During a subsequent appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O Show, he revealed that he composed a song for Danniella, replacing a traditional wedding speech, despite his struggles with dyslexia.
In a recent announcement, Grennan celebrated the success of his album “Everywhere I Went, Led Me to Where I Didn’t Want to Be,” which topped the UK charts, marking his third consecutive number one. In the same post, he shared the joyous news of becoming a parent, expressing gratitude for his achievements and the forthcoming journey of fatherhood. His heartfelt words highlighted the significance of these milestones, stating that while music has provided purpose, fatherhood offers everything he could ever wish for.
He ended with a message of appreciation to his fans for their unwavering support and expressed excitement for his upcoming tour.
