AJ Tracey secretly marries influencer girlfriend in spectacular ceremony in front of celeb pals and family
RAPPER AJ Tracey has secretly tied the knot with his stunning girlfriend in an epic ceremony.
The Ladbroke Grove hitmaker, 32, has said ‘I do’ to model and influencer Liva, also 32, who is also known as Yung Peppermint on social media to her hundreds of thousands of followers.
The Sun can exclusively reveal the lovebirds made their union official in front of family and friends on September 12.
No expense was spared on the big day with a source telling The Sun that AJ, whose real name is Che, went all out to impress for the occasion.
The pair, who have aimed to keep their years-long romance under wraps, shunned the usual tradition of splashing photos from the big day online and ensured that all their guests were under strict instructions to not share any footage of the nuptials.
An insider told The Sun: “It was an epic wedding day fit for one of the UK’s most popular rappers.
“AJ and Liva quietly got engaged earlier this year and then wasted no time on planning an incredible wedding celebration.
Our source continued: “AJ and Liva have always aimed to keep their romance out of the public eye and have rarely ever shared snaps of one another online.
“They asked all their guests to keep news of the wedding under their hats and insisted that no photos were to be shared.
“Despite being one of Britain’s most recognisable rappers, AJ has always been keen to keep his home life under wraps.
“But he had the most fantastic day marrying Liva earlier this month and was telling his pals he felt like the luckiest man alive.”
The Sun first revealed that AJ and Liva were dating earlier this year.
The couple had managed to keep their connection quiet for years before Liva gave a rare glimpse into one of their date nights on her social media page at the time.
They are understood to have first connected after both being signed to the same modelling agency years ago and romance very quickly blossomed.
Our source said at the time: “AJ’s known for being a charming man in the industry so it’s no surprise he has swept Liva off her feet.
“Everyone is really happy for them and their pals hope the romance continues to go the distance.”
AJ has been one of the leading faces of UK rap for close to ten years.
His 2019 hit Ladbroke Grove became a platinum hit and reached number three on the UK Singles Charts.
The star’s second album, Flu Game, became his biggest success reaching number two in 2021.
His track, Crush, featuring Jorja Smith was nominated for Song of the Year at this year’s MOBO Awards.
Last year, he also transitioned into television appearing alongside his cousin, TV presenter and chef Big Zuu, in their own Sky Max travel series titled Big Zuu and AJ Tracey’s Rich Flavours.
Meanwhile, Liva has built up her own following with the German-born model having developed a lucrative career as a social media influencer after moving to London after the Covid pandemic.
