Love Island

The BRIT Awards

Becky made it two-for-two - winning Best Dance Act yet again at the BRIT Awards 2023! Once again, Becky gave an incredible and emotional acceptance speech as she picked up her award, winning over the likes of Bonobo, Calvin Harris, Eliza Rose and Fred Again.
She said: "I want to thank the BRITs' committee for putting me on the shortlist of the Dance Act for another year, and it is such an honour to be nominated especially alongside the amazing Eliza Rose, and the incredible RAYE who are an inspiration for women and people of colour in such an underrepresented scene."
Becky also performed at the awards show alongside David Guetta, Ella Henderson and Sam Ryder as they performed 'Remember', 'Crazy What Love Can Do' and David's smash hit with Bebe Rexha, 'I'm Good (Blue)'.
2022
The BRIT Awards 2022 with Mastercard were certainly great for Becky Hill! After winning the award for Best Dance Act (her first ever BRIT Award), Becky had us all in tears with her emotional acceptance speech.
The singer gushed: "I love dance music, I have been a little drum and bass raver since I was 12-years-old, I love dance music, to be up against people like RAYE, Joel, Fred, Calvin is an honour for me. It’s been 16 years since they had a dance category and I am so honoured to win this award tonight."
Becky Hill's first album
Becky released her debut album 'Only Honest on the Weekend' in August 2021, featuring songs like 'Better Off Without You', 'Heaven on My Mind' and 'My Heart Goes (La Di Da)'. No stranger to a collab, Becky worked with the likes of MNEK, Ella Eyre, Sigala and David Guetta on the record!
It peaked at Number 7 in the UK and has been certified Platinum by the BPI with 300,000 sales.
Becky Hill's second album
Becky's second album is called 'Believe Me Now' and was released on 31st May 2024. The singer previously told BANG Showbiz back in 2021: "I’m going to start writing again and experimenting with new sounds and new phase of music for me, I'm very excited about that."
She went on to reveal: "I have a love for dance music and always have done since I was a child. I would love to experiment with more instruments, namely live instrumentation in dance music so you can get that live stage feel while being on the dance floor.
"I’ll definitely be upping the budget on album two and making sure there’s lots of live instruments on there, I think it could really be a breath of fresh air for dance pop music."
Then in May 2023, in an interview with Sam Thompson, Becky revealed a bit more about her album, she said: "There's lots of proper club records on there which I'm really excited about. I've been back in writing more drum and bass as well. I actually think I've written one of the best drum and bass records since I've written 'Afterglow', which I'm really excited about.
"I wrote it with Chase & Status as well, so that's really exciting! There should be new music out quite a lot this year! I just want to see how this next year goes, you know, I've got to go out to America and try and break America, and I've got to really plant my feet."
In December 2023, Becky announced she would be releasing a new song on 19th January 2024, this turned out to be a banger called 'Never Be Alone'. Then, also in January 2024, Becky revealed the album's title and release date.
Becky's third album
Becky has not revealed much about her third album, however she did tease it in an Instagram post after The BRIT Awards 2025. The singer told her fans: '2025 marks my 13th year in the music industry & my 4th year nominated for best dance act at the @brits …i will never not feel grateful, proud & lucky to be recognised for my work & every year inspires me to have ‘that year’ which i will one day ☺️ right then, back to writing album 3'. (sic)
Then in January 2026, Becky wiped her TikTok account and started to share some clips of a new song called 'Hands On Me'. Many fans believe the song will be on her upcoming third album.
Who would she like to collaborate with next?
Becky is the queen of collabs, having worked with many big artists including Sigala, David Guetta, Jonas Blue, and she even teamed up TWICE with dance DJ Wilkinson, but who else would she really like to work with?
Speaking in 2021, Becky told Hits Radio's Jordan-Lee all about it. Revealing how she'd already joined Joel Corry in the studio - with the pair later releasing their banger 'History' - Becky went on to tell us how she slid into Kwabs' DMs.
"I slipped into his DMs, and we need to do a dance song together, your voice is incredible and he's back. He's just on a new Regard song called 'Signals'."
Becky continued: "And it's really lovely to hear Kwabs’ voice back on record. So, I've been chatting to him and I'm hoping that will happen."
However, there's one DJ who hasn't seen her messages - Calvin Harris.
"Someone that I have been going on for probably the large part of my career is Calvin Harris who hasn't seen my messages," Becky explained laughing: "It's his loss."
Becky as a solo artist
Despite doing a lot of collaborations, Becky has revealed that in 2023 she was going to: 'step out as my own artist'. The singer didn't want to have people featuring on her songs, and would be returning to her 'raver roots'.
On 12th May 2023 she released her first solo song in over a year called 'Side Effects', the music video was also released and featured the singer in various locations including a nightclub, a bed and on stage. In June that year, Becky performed at Glastonbury.
In March 2025, Becky once again said she was keen to be seen as a dance artist in her own right. In an interview with DJ Mag she said: "I'm more than just a vocalist, I'm a dance artist and I want to be up there with the kind of 'Fishers' and 'Dom Dollas' and 'the Calvin Harris', 'the David Guettas' and no woman has actually done that yet."
Is Becky Hill a songwriter?
Yes, Becky has co-written a number of songs both for herself and others. Becky has co-written Jax Jones' 'All Day and Night' with Martin Solveig and Madison Beer, MNEK's 'Crazy World' and Oliver Heldens' 'Last All Night (Koala)' featuring KStewart.
She's also co-written a song for DJ Alesso and singer Zara Larsson. She took to Instagram to tell her fans: 'i need to also tell u about a new writing cut me & @kazpoole have with @alesso & @zaralarsson! kaz, i love writing with you & being around your incredible talent ❤️ what do u guys think? another dance banger?? 👯♀️ ' (sic)
Becky also co-wrote songs that she has performed including 'Remember' with David Guetta, 'Crazy What Love Can Do' with Ella Henderson and David Guetta, and 'My Heart Goes (La Di Da)' with Topic.
Is Becky Hill engaged?
Not anymore, she's married! Becky was engaged to long-term partner Charlie. Becky announced her engagement in January 2022 and also spoke about it in an interview with us. In the interview, Becky admitted the proposal came as a surprise.
"I should have known when he took me to a ring shop, but I didn't," she admitted. Becky recounted how she spent a bit of money on some sapphires in Sri Lanka on a holiday with Charlie, but they then split up. While on a break when she wrote 'Wish You Well' and 'Better Off Without You' she decided to make them into a couple of rings.
The couple got back together and while on holiday in the Maldives, she wanted to look at some jewellery, so they popped to a ring shop. Looking at the rings Charlie started to haggle, but it turned out the ring was for him!
However, Charlie had a surprise in store for Becky. "We went to some little desert island, and it was all just a little bit weird," she revealed. "We were shooting content for the resort weirdly. They were getting us to run down the beach and they'd drawn like a heart in the sand and they were like, can you guys lie in the heart and do a heart with your hands!"
Becky then told how he popped the question saying: "Out of his bag, he pulled a ring and he got down on one knee and I told him to shut up a couple of times and burst into tears! It couldn't have been more Becky and Charlie if it had tried."
Why was Becky's wedding on hold?
The singer told fans in January 2024 that she had finally confirmed a date for her wedding. But it was later postponed again due to work commitments.
Becky previously said her wedding was on hold as she got engaged back in 2022. And then in an interview with us she explained: "I really need to make sure this next album works, to work out what kind of wedding I can have, and what kind of life I can have after it!"
She continued: "This is my literal future, I'm 30 next year, if it doesn't go well this year it's... in the music industry it's never given to you, like any minute, the rug can be ripped from under your feet. It's like the least secure job, I think we definitely all saw that through lockdown and stuff.
"I just want to make sure that this album goes well, and then I can kind of relax a little bit, and do some life stuff."
Her hen do
Thankfully, Becky's wedding went ahead in September 2025, and a month before, in August she shared photos from her hen do at Lake Como. The singer told fans: 'i got a gig through that paid for my hen do in lake como..! safe to say the girls were much happier as we were going to snowdonia 😂
'lucky for love, lucky for friends, lucky for job, lucky for life 💞'.(sic)
Becky and and Charlie's wedding
The pair tied the knot in Falmouth, Cornwall in September 2025. It was attended by MNEK, Ella Eyre and Gareth Gates, along with the friends and family of the couple.
Becky shared some stunning photos from the big day, telling her fans: 'i didn’t believe them when they said it’s the best day of your life, but wow…' (sic)
