Josh Zerker is finally engaged to his long-time girlfriend, Freya Nightingale.
Zerker, often known as Zerkaa, is an English YouTuber and one of the Sidemen members who has gained popularity through his vlogs, challenges, and gaming videos.
On January 21, 2024, Zerkaa took to Instagram and Twitter to reveal that he was engaged to Nightingale. He posted two photos: one of him with Nightingale, where she was showing off her left hand, and another of just Nightingale’s hand to show off her beautiful engagement ring.
In the caption, he wrote, “After 13 years we finally did it. We’re engaged!” Friends of Zerkaa could not help but be happy for the couple on their engagement.
As a result, they took to the comment section to share their excitement for the newly-engaged duo. Ethan Payne commented, “Amazing amazing amazing, so happy for you both wow amazing so sick,” with a heart emoji.
Danny Aarons gushed, “Congratulations to you both,” and KSI exclaimed, “HES DONE IT!!!!!!!!!!!”
Elz noted, “Not the ring matching the nails as well… this is perfect, so happy for you both,” and in another comment, she wrote, “This has literally made my DAY.”
Many Sidemen members like Vikram Barn, Payne, Tobit Brown, and KSI, along with gamers and streamers like Valkyrae, Jacksepticeye, Josh Ellum, and Ali-A commented by giving the duo best wishes on their engagement.

Similarly, fans and followers of the couple also gave their congratulations to the newly-engaged pair. The news of their engagement was shared on Reddit on r/Sidemen, the Official subreddit for the Sidemen.
Initially, many did not believe and claimed that they had to open Instagram and Twitter to check if the engagement news was real. One Redditor commented, “I honestly thought this was fake, went to Instagram and confirmed it myself.”
Many were happy that the duo got engaged but pointed out that the engagement or wedding would not change anything between the duo. This was because they had been dating for over a decade, so a wedding was simply making their relationship official.
“I genuinely thought they weren’t gonna do it and just stay together forever how they were. After 13 years what does a wedding really change?” one Redditor questioned.
Similarly, another noted, “Realistically, it doesn’t change anything for them; they both seemed perfectly happy without being engaged. Seems like more of a formality than anything, maybe seeing the other boys weddings cause them to rethink it cause before neither of them seemed to really care about getting married.”
Regardless, all of them are happy for Zerkaa and Nightingale. The duo had been dating since 2010 and were living together after Zerkaa left the Sidemen house back in 2019.
Regardless of being together for so long, Zerkaa and Nightingale kept their relationship private. So, not much detail is known about it.
Fans and followers of the duo have been following up with the duo since 2013, when Zerkaa joined Sidemen. Since then, they have wished nothing but the best for the couple.
In March 2023, there were rumors that Zerkaa and Nightingale broke up. Nightingale had said that they broke up, but she only did that because someone was spamming her about her relationship.
She only said that to shut him up, but in reality, Zerkaa and Nightingale were still dating. The two often shared pictures of their dating life on Instagram — from going to different weddings and their date nights to celebrating each other’s birthdays and special occasions like Valentine’s Day.
Their relationship quickly became a fan favorite, and now that they are engaged, netizens can’t wait for their wedding.

Lily Allen ‘Happy to be Alive’ After Terrifying Car Accident: Singer’s Porsche Run Off Road by HGV
Lily Allen reveals she is “happy to be alive” after a terrifying car crash involving an HGV.
Pop icon and West End Girl singer Lily Allen has left fans stunned after revealing she was involved in a serious road collision in early January 2026. The singer took to Instagram to share photos of her damaged luxury Porsche, following a frightening encounter with a Heavy Goods Vehicle (HGV).
While the damage to her vehicle was significant, Allen reassured her followers that she escaped the ordeal physically unharmed—though her signature wit remains as sharp as ever.
“Happy to be Alive”: The Details of the Accident
Sharing the news with her millions of followers on January 19, 2026, Allen posted a series of images showcasing the aftermath of the crash. The photos revealed extensive scraping along the side of her Porsche and damage to the wheel arch, suggesting a side-swipe encounter at high speeds.
In her characteristically blunt style, Allen captioned the update:
“Could have done without an HGV running me off the road but other than that a relatively good start to 2026. Happy to be alive and to not be posting any photos taken in 2016.”
The “four-word update”—happy to be alive—quickly trended across social media, with fans and fellow celebrities flooding her comments section with messages of relief.
Shaking Off 2025: A Fresh Start for Lily
The accident comes at a pivotal moment for the 40-year-old artist. Following her high-profile separation from Stranger Things star David Harbour in early 2025 and her subsequent return to the music scene with the critically acclaimed album West End Girl in October, Allen has been vocal about her journey toward healing and sobriety.
Her mention of “not posting any photos taken in 2016” is a direct jab at the “10-Year Challenge” currently sweeping Instagram, where users compare their current selves to photos from a decade ago. For Lily, 2016 was a notoriously difficult year marked by personal struggles—and she clearly has no interest in looking back.
What’s Next for Lily Allen?
Despite the automotive setback, 2026 is shaping up to be a massive year for the star:
- UK Tour: Her “Lily Allen Performs West End Girl” tour is set to kick off in March 2026, with dates already sold out at the London Palladium.
- Festival Season: She is confirmed to headline several major European festivals, including Lollapalooza Berlin in July.
- Podcast Success: Her hit BBC podcast Miss Me? continues to dominate the charts as she remains one of the most unfiltered voices in British media.
