The Script’s Danny O’Donoghue has announced his engagement to his girlfriend Anais Naing after several years of dating. Danny , who rose to fame in Irish rock band The Script, and events manager Anais have been dating since 2020, after bumping into each other in their neighbourhood during the COVID lockdown in London. With the former Voice UK judge no stranger to talking about his love life in his songs, including the Man Who Can’t Be Moved and Breakeven, Danny will be writing about married life in the near future.

He told the Sun. ‘We hiked up to the top of a mountain to face the most beautiful waterfall in the world, The Seven Sisters. It’s our favourite place on earth.

‘I nearly passed out from exhaustion carrying up all the champagne, glasses and food for if she said yes. I had to do it all without her knowing.’ Currently in the midst of promoting his band’s seventh studio album Satellites, Danny recently opened up about his relationship with Anais and how he knows she’s the one.

Danny explained to the Sunday World: ‘When you know, you know...

I knew when it wasn’t right, but now I know whatever that is, that it’s one hundred per cent right. ‘She’s great. I met her during Covid and if you’ve been with anybody through Covid it’s like you compress ten years into those years.

.. ‘You learn everything, all the good bits, mostly the bad bits, and if you get through those moments.

.. I don’t know if it’s a rite of passage, if you’ve made it.
