Following months of speculation, Ed Sheeran confirmed in December 2019 that he had married Cherry Seaborn the previous January.

"Back in high school, Ed & Cherry were crushing hard. They made out at the Castle on the Hill. A few years ago they reconnected, there were fireworks, they married in January 2019," the clip read.

January is a very special month for Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden. Not only did they announce the birth of their baby girl, Raddix, in January 2020 but it is also the month they tied the knot. The couple married in an intimate ceremony at their home on 5 January 2015, seven months after they started dating after being introduced by Benji's sister-in-law, Nicole Richie. "We got married in our living room in front of our friends," Cameron told radio host Andy Cohen the following year. "Had a little party in our backyard on the tennis court and yeah. Otherwise it would have been something else."
