Danielle Williamson’s work
Danielle Williamson is a talented singer and we’re not exaggerating.
She’s a hidden gem in the thick mud of depression and anxiety. It was 2016 when Danielle stopped doing what she hoped would one day be her career. “I stopped auditioning, I stopped performing, I stopped putting effort into anything I did,” she says.
Singing and performing has been a lifelong dream of Danielle’s, and she’s not giving up! Danielle recorded her first video since her hiatus in March 2019, and also took the time to reveal that she was “slowly (but surely)” getting her voice back. She was also taking music lessons at the time.
Danielle Williamson and Elliot Fletcher: Dating, how did they meet?
Although Danielle Williamson and Elliot Fletcher first revealed they were dating on Valentine’s Day 2018, it seems like they’ve been together for quite some time. The earliest post we could find of the couple was on June 12, 2017, on Danielle’s IG with the caption, “the male version of me except with better teeth.”
Since then, the couple has been flooding social media with pictures of each other — traveling, celebrating Halloween, and hitting the beach.
Sharing a bit about her love life, Danielle said Elliot is her “heart and soul”. He is her “home”, and the person who makes her laugh so hard she “pees her pants”.
Also, on Elliot’s 2019 birthday, Danielle mentioned on IG that it was her third birthday with him, meaning they’ve known each other since 2016. However, how they first met remains a mystery to us.
In 2018, Danielle and Elliot even made it onto Seventeen magazine’s list of “Cutest Celebrity Couples.”
In case you didn’t know, Elliot identifies as transgender. He first came out as transgender when he was 17 and even graduated from high school as the first openly transgender person. He then went on to play a transgender man named Noah on MTV’s Faking It, which eventually catapulted him into the spotlight.
