Italian singer Damiano David, frontman of Måneskin, and American actress Davi Cameron took part in a romantic photoshoot in Rome for the October issue of Vogue Italia ahead of their wedding. Instead of the usual tourist postcards, the magazine's editors invited the couple to immerse themselves in the city's "hidden corners" — places where the musician spent his youth — and turn the shoot into a kind of road movie. The couple not only posed at various locations but also spoke candidly about their relationship and wedding preparations.
Behind-the-scenes route: from Monte Verde to Villa Sciarra
The shooting route began in the Monte Verde Vecchio district, where Damiano grew up, before the couple moved on to Trastevere — including the Samovar pub and the legendary Bar San Calisto. Scenes were also filmed on the grounds of the American Academy in Rome and at Villa Sciarra. This choice of locations allowed the issue's creators to move away from the standard "postcard" aesthetic and show the city through the eyes of a resident rather than a tourist.
A relationship beyond the cameras
Despite constant public attention, Damiano and Davi try to keep part of their lives out of frame. The couple currently lives between Rome and Los Angeles and plans their work schedules to minimize time apart. "We don't want to be in a long-distance relationship. We do everything we can to make it feel normal," Davi said. Damiano, for his part, noted that his idea of home has changed: Rome will always remain his home city, but the feeling of home is now tied above all to the person close to him. "Even if we're on tour, say in Baden-Baden, in Germany, I feel at home. We really need each other," the artist said.
A proposal without the fuss
The musician deliberately shunned grand romantic gestures: he proposed at home, while the couple was packing their suitcases for a trip. At that moment the actress was wearing an oversized T-shirt, with wet hair and no makeup. According to Damiano, their life is already full of impressive moments, and true romance for them lies in simple things: doing household chores together, cooking, and growing old side by side. "Online, people only see the big moments. But in between, there were two months when we were just grocery shopping, cooking, and trying to figure out how our new juicer works," Davi shared.
Conflicting data
The timeline of the relationship is not fully consistent across open sources. According to the main text, the couple confirmed their relationship in 2024 and announced their engagement in early 2026. At the same time, a number of specialist publications covering the engagement dated the relevant reports to autumn 2025. Thus, the exact moment of the public engagement announcement varies across sources, although the fact of the engagement and the preparations for a wedding in the coming months are confirmed by all of them.
