Chart-topping artist Anne-Marie is known for her discretion when it comes to her personal life, but the December 2024 rape trial of her husband, rapper Slowthai, thrust their relationship into the limelight.
Now the couple, who secretly tied the knot in 2022, have revealed they are expecting their second child together. Anne-Marie shared the news in a video on social media this evening that featured her singing Don’t Panic, which she shared a clip of.
She wrote in the caption: “Surprise”. Anne-Marie is already a parent to a one-year-old daughter with Slowthai. Slowthai, whose real name is Tyron Frampton, faced potential criminal charges for three counts of rape in 2024. After over 10 hours of deliberation, Oxford Crown Court cleared the Grammy-nominated star of all charges related to alleged incidents on September 8, 2021.
Anne-Marie discussed what she described as her “hardest year” on social media at the end of last year. “2024 the most beautiful yet hardest year of our lives. God is really trying to understand my strength, haha. You all are special to me, and I love you all the more than you will ever be. You’re probably going to be sick of me because I have so much to offer you in the new year. Take the best break possible and see you soon.
Here’s what we know about Anne-Marie and Slowthai’s love story as they prepare for the arrival of their second baby. The exact timeline of Anne-Marie and Slowthai’s relationship remains unclear, but it’s believed they started dating around mid-2022. Prior to his relationship with Anne-Marie, Frampton was engaged to model Katya Kischuk, with whom he shares a child, before they parted ways early in the same year.
The Mirror captured Anne-Marie and her boyfriend in May 2022 when John Legend performed an intimate set at Ronnie Scott’s jazz club. After being seen fighting with a bouncer before riding into a taxi together, the pair became more aware of their whereabouts.
Up until February 2023, fans were frightened of Anne-Marie’s relationship status with Slowthai. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Slowthai hinted at their closeness, admitting he spent loads of time in Essex, Anne-Marie’s stomping ground. He shared that they “talk and vent about stuff” and noted how being with Anne-Marie made him feel elated, saying: “You either get on like a house on fire with some people, or you don’t. And some people feel like they’re part of the furniture, that they’ve always been around and known you”.
Even so, this did not officially confirm their relationship. The following month, Anne-Marie released a TikTok video of them singing along to Slowthai’s song “Happy,” which definitively confirmed their romance.
The official announcement of their relationship sent fans into a frenzy, with the video racking up over 1.3 million views, 100, 000 likes and more than 1000 comments. Fans expressing their happiness and congratulations to the couple and Anne-Marie’s happiness for the most part received these. Despite the fact that Frampton was seen wearing a silver wedding band, many people became aware that the singer had been sporting a diamond ring on her ring finger.
In March of this year, they revealed their relationship and a potential wedding. The pair secretly exchanged vows in Las Vegas two years prior to Anne-Marie’s lengthy tour, according to an insider who spoke to The Sun.
“Anne-Marie and Slowthai got married in secret two years ago”, the source revealed to the newspaper. She and her husband, who they married, took an eight-week break from their tour. The couple tied the knot on July 26, 2022, just six days after getting married, according to the source.
Snapshots of Anne-Marie and Slow Thai taking a stroll with a baby buggy were only recently released via MailOnline after the couple’s secret engagement was revealed a few days later. A source disclosed, “Anne-Marie and Slow Thai have had a baby daughter they’ve named Seven”.
Further details emerged as they added: “It is Anne-Marie’s lucky number, and she even has 0707 tattooed on her because she sees them as her angel numbers”.
The couple’s surprise when they welcomed their first child was quite shocking, especially considering that rumors suggested the little one was already a month old, which implied Anne-Marie was skilled at hiding her pregnancy, to the point of performing during her “Unhealthy” tour while pregnant.
The news of Anne-Marie’s second pregnancy comes just days after she and Slow Thai celebrated their daughter’s first birthday. Alongside photos from the celebrations, she wrote in a post on Instagram on Monday: “Our baby is 1!! The most stunning souls are together for a year. I’m happy to see you have enjoyed your life so far. Our precious little book worm, you are so clever and funny. We are eager to share our lives with you for the rest of ours.
