Since their tattoo shop meet-cute in 2019, Elle King and Daniel Tooker have had a relationship full of ups and downs, from their engagement in 2020 to the birth of their son after several miscarriages to their eventual split in 2023. The pair announced in September 2024 that they were willing to give their romance […]
“We’re back together,” King told People at the time. “We had to grow. I don’t know. I’ll try anything twice.”
The “Exes & Oh’s” singer and Tooker started dating in 2019 after they met when she stopped by his studio for some new ink. Tooker proposed one year later before the pair sparked split speculation in May 2023 when King sported a jacket that read “Single” during her Stagecoach Music Festival set. The pair never addressed the rumored split until King confirmed their reconciliation.
“This is worth trying. This is worth wiping a slate clean,” King added to People. “This is worth all the effort in the world. My family, this is what deserves all the energy and effort.”
Prior to welcoming Lucky and Royal, the couple suffered multiple miscarriages.
“We are very excited to share the news that we are pregnant,” King wrote via Instagram in March 2021. “This news comes with a great deal of fear, and I hope that all mothers-to-be, in whatever sense that may be, know that I am trying to be very sensitive. You see, this miracle baby comes after two very big losses.”
