Prior to today's news, Chester French was known as the group of two Harvard grads signed to Pharell's Star Trak label.

The group's profile has been raised now, as it's being reported that 19-year-old British socialite Peaches Geldof the daughter of Bob Geldof married Max Drummey, a member of Chester French, in Las Vegas.

A statement released on the couple's behalf said: "Peaches and Max Drummey are delighted to announce their very happy marriage. The couple tied the knot in a simple, low-key ceremony in Las Vegas last week, whilst holidaying in America."

It added that "Peaches and Max did not want unnecessary publicity but, following growing media speculation, have decided to set out the facts. No further comment from either will be forthcoming."

 

A friend explained: "When Peaches went out to the US I'm not sure she planned to get married, she just wanted to spend some more time with Max. They have been together since the iTunes festival but not many people knew about it, only their close circle of friends and family. Peaches' dad knew about the wedding and he is perfectly happy."
