I will wear this ring that I was always supposed to wear as a sign of my unconditional love to you.”

Tom, who found fame in the band Stereo Kicks in 2014, and Dani were originally supposed to get married in September 2020, but the couple postponed their nuptials due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“To think of what today should have been is strange, but we count ourselves incredibly fortunate that a wedding date is all we’ve lost,” she wrote online at the time. “Everyone has a story from 2020 – I’m just grateful you’re so heavily featured in mine….. I can’t wait to marry you, but the world has other plans.”
They revealed in June 2021 that Dani was pregnant with their first child, and welcomed their son, Bowie, in October 2021.
