“Luke Hemmings! On lead vocal and lead handsome.” 🫠
I feel like it gets better at every time 🥹
i was at the fonda (night 1) when luke referred to sierra as his wife. however, no wedding band. i'm sure someone else has mentioned that, but i haven't seen anyone else talking about it. this weekend's fashion display by luke in milan..sierra nowhere to be found. he does have a ring on his left hand, but it doesn't seem like a wedding band to me. and if it were, why didn't he have it on at the fonda? rhetorical question. anyhow, this is a very lengthy way to ask your take on it all, and do you think they are married or was it a planned "announcement"..which he didn't seem to make mention of night two?
OK, ready?
Luke saying “my wife Sierra” at his solo show at the Fonda in LA
Pardon the delay in my response, I wanted to wait a beat to see what happened after.
First, Luke was wearing his matching ring with Ash. Ash was wearing his the prior couple of days of events and with fans. Luke hasn’t ever worn a matching ring with her, which therefore there’s nothing to construe as a wedding ring for them. Ever. Luke and Ash have been wearing theirs ever since the band Twitch stream. Check out my various black onyx ring tags. Also, since Youngblood era (stars rings), Luke and Ash have worn various matching rings. They’re sneaky about it. Sometimes they both will wear it, sometimes only Luke, sometimes only Ash. Ash doesn’t wear any rings when drumming.
Released his album with Sony (known for using stunts and people’s personal lives as promotion. Example: all of the Spidermen and Mary Jane’s have “dated”). He’s also managed by Matt Emsell/Ben Evans, who have managed the boys all throughout Modest days.
No article or anything afterwards, which would typically happen with these things…. instead there’s a mystal pregnancy announcement to overshadow it. (Which don’t even get me started on THAT whole thing….)
Luke hasn’t mentioned it anywhere else or made a formal announcement. There was a big deal made about the engagement (along with the standard PR article in People, Ben earning his money) so if the marriage was real, wouldn’t there be one? Luke said some lovely words in his ig post but nothing about any marriage? HELLO?
I truly 100% don’t think they’ll ever get married. Luke and Ash remain devoted to one another. The time is ticking on the Lierra breakup. (Side note: Notice how Ash nor any of the other boys nor anyone on their team nor family members have acknowledged it either??)
Another side note that I find entertaining: I find it very reassuring that the fans actually don’t favor the duet (Older), which was supposed to be this beautiful love PR move between the stunt. Caramel is intensely much better of a song. The gays tend to do a much better job at it. (Hello Elton John and so many others.) Ash would never think of trying to overshadow Luke, like S tried to at London ONO.
Luke’s been flying solo to events ever since the guys were in Aussie. She wasn’t at Fashion Week either. (I’m including video clip proof he was solo.) [Theory: A couple fellow Lashies believe it was some sort of trade off that he had to say the marriage thing at his show so he could be sans Sierra at Fashion Week. Fashion is his. He wants to be himself whenever he can. One day Ash will be next to him though, cheering him on proudly.] Luke has been at events with bandmates, family members (his brother), or is solo ever since they were in Aussie at the end of Take Me Home Tour? Which we need to acknowledge how much Luke absolutely SLAYYYYYED at Fashion Week!! Multiple of different outfits! Get it!!
Ash needed to be next to him. 🥺❤️
There’s just so many reasons it was a flat out lie.
Hey Siri, play “Lie to Me”. Actually, seriously, stream Lie To Me, it’s a banger. Writing credits of Luke and Ash, so, of course it is.
i was listening to Lover of Mine, as I do, and i was thinking about the first part of the chorus
"I'll never give you away /'Cause I've already made that mistake/ If my name never fell off your lips again/ I know it'd be such a shame"
If it is supposedly about Sierra, which no, the first two lines don't make a lot of sense. To me, it's as if the lyrics about breaking up then getting back together, which I don't think Lierra has done. But could be possible for Lashton
Yup.
The narrative was Luke and Sierra were seen publicly, then very quickly were “together”. They’ve never given any indication since then that there’s been any breakup.
But on the other hand, Luke and Ash have had a long history, of now over a decade, and the struggles of a closeted gay relationship in the music industry has plenty of struggles and obstacles to get through.
So much of LOM points to Luke and Ash.
The rainbow of the visualizer…
Anytime her name is in the song credits it’s automatically about her with Luke. :eye roll:
Meanwhile…. Lol
Dancing around the living room. LASHTON
Keeping secrets. CLOSETING
Both having to lie to be together. GAY AND CLOSETING

Um did Taylor just confirm lashton?
i’ve missed them so much
Lashton Timeline Masterpost; using 5sos and solo albums for eras
Using 5sos albums to show an overview/condensed relationship era timeline, using selected tracks. Release date is in parenthesis. Keep in mind, albums are recorded AT LEAST 6-8months before released, more typically closer to a year earlier.
A note I do want to make is that the affection between members of the band, and the fact they knew, and even created their pairing names, normalized and arguably fed into the "shipping" culture that happened. This has caused confusion throughout the fandom in delineating what friendship looks like and what a relationship looks like. Friendship is where the best relationships are based. How many times have you heard couples say that their partner is their best friend. All of the boys are best friends as well as soulmates, as themselves have stated.
Now with that out of the way....

Luke's mom is Ashton's maths teacher 2009- 2010 school year.
Then at some point Luke and Ash are both at the cinema where Luke is getting bullied by some kids and Ashton steps in and defends Luke (knight in shining armor anyone???). I will make another post about the timeline of the band and Lashton. For this timeline though, I will be focusing on their music.
(December 2012) “Somewhere New” first EP
“Out of My Limit” [Luke songwriter] - Special attachment to this song as it was performed in 10th Anniv YT Show. The lyric referencing 2 years matches up with how long Luke and Ashton knew each other. Calum and Michael met in 3rd grade, Luke went to the same school with Cal and Michael. Also, Ash was the only one to have jobs to help with expenses. [[Side note: Something that’s been on my mind is how “meet split ends” could be a double meaning to reference the band Split Endz (same lead singer is in Crowded House. SE was prior to CH. Lead singer is known in the industry for his songwriting skills. Ash is a fan of Crowded House.)]]
“Beside You” [Luke songwriter] - It’s a song of longing. During an interview, Ash attempted explaining the meaning is one can of beans is with another can of beans, but there’s another can of beans that wants to be with one of them. He lost confidence in his explanation so he didn't continue on with it. 🥺☹️
Luke at it again!
Introduces Ashton as “😉sweaty boy…. Ashton Irwin!” for te Feeling of Falling Upwards show in London.

Ashton and Marg breakup saga
What if there was a world where people took a second to pause and look at what was being shown, and then saw how the narratives that were being presented are so toxic and didn’t actually make sense…
This latest “breakup” narrative for Ash, once again, makes the guy look like a horrible person to the woman. This closeting stuff makes people ultimately look bad (usually the man being closeted) and also gives this super toxic pictures of what relationships look like. Anyone who could jump to conclusions about what kind of polar opposite of an image these toxic breakup narratives show are so bad.
Every time during the TMH tour, when Luke and Ash did something that could be seen as very couple-y, the way it's manufactured to be so that fans are less likely to suspect anything actual romantic going on between them is to have a female that, even if not confirmed as a partner, is used to disregard the possibility. It can’t possibly be couple-y because they are both supposedly attached to women. The number of times people say to rebut the possibility that Luke and Ash are actually together… mind you, I DO NOT support hating on anyone, but I do support people not blindly accepting things they are shown. And if I see things going on that bring on any hate towards Luke or Ash, I will defend them.
Anywho… continuing on what I was saying… As soon as the guys get home from tour, the fake relationship with a woman who was only pictured a few times anywhere near Ash does a toxic breakup (we're talking high school level) by posting an ig story of a woman scorned, where she insinuates he was lying or whatever narrative is in the fandoms heads that’s created (example: I saw a few “fans” even try to suspect he had cheated or some bullshit like that, gtfo). While on tour, she tried posting a happy 1 year anniversary, but doing the math of it, that timeline didn't even line up, and plus he totally ignored it (rightfully so).
Ashton posts a song to his ig story of a song that doesn't even have a connection with her (it's literally on the clubhouse candle company playlist), then they unfollow each other on ig,
She never did anything to support the candle company venture, yet Luke and Andy Deluca interacted with the very first post. See where the support is.
It's the way both her and kk both still interact with the 5sos team social medias, that's what makes it appear even more like the “relationships” with Ash were just contracts/PR. It’s the “I’m seen around you so I get followers to my socials (even if your fans know nothing about me or anything in my background that’s problematic) and the powers that be use it to excuse anything that could be perceived as less than straight”.
us lashies have been so fed with luke wearing ashton’s glasses now being confirmed 🥹😭 !!
So true bestie 🫶❤️💙
5SOS “Older” promo observations
September 7, 2022 - Today the new song 5SOS song “Older” drops, Ashton reposts only the promo videos with Luke and doesn’t include any tags. This morning he also posts a Peter Gabriel song “Sledgehammer” (which albeit an iconic song with great musicality) which is “about sex and the lyrics are loaded with phallic symbols. The title of the song and various other references throughout it are a euphemism to the male genitalia.
Luke’s posts regarding “Older”. Posts clips of acoustic Luke only performing the song. Only reposts the videos (which don’t include her voice anywhere) and doesn’t tag her anywhere.
Compared to Michael, who has pushed the stunts numerous times and has brought up the stunts even when not asked about during interviews, includes S in his tags. Luke, Ash, or Cal don’t tag her in anything. The videos are of Luke singing acoustically by himself, which is so pretty on its own merit, and full on I wish that was the version we got on the album. S’s voice just wasn’t necessary, imo. The boys Like Sierra’s ig post but none of them put it to their own ig stories. There’s so much shade in this song drop!
Crystal (Michael’s supposed wife) is the reason Sierra was brought into the picture. Crystal’s profession is PR. She is the one who setup Luke with Sierra, Ashton with Kaykay (also applies with Marg, no longer narratively together yet she still stays friends with Ash’s work friends, this is weird because typically when you breakup with someone they don’t stay in your friend connections, which supports those whole “relationships” were a PR/bearding stunts contracts. They seem to stay connected with the other women because it’s all business, albeit toxic business.).
Then Sierra on HER OWN IG ACCT makes a post trying to convince us that this is her choosing to “stay behind the scenes” and letting the fans use a story about how Michael told them to finish a song that she and Luke had started on a voice note of Luke’s (which Luke had shared as a joke *hint hint* meaning he didn’t feel much of an emotional connection attachment to it) Luke shared it as a joke and now she’s narratively putting it across as a very meaningful Lierra love song. HONEY. Stop trying to make fetch happen 😂
She’s saying she stopped pursuing an artist career (doesn’t discount the amount she has used Luke’s career as solo and with 5sos for a paycheck and PR for herself), yet since she was put together with Luke, she has written and/or appeared on EVERY RECORD LUKE IS ON INCLUDING HIS SOLO. The engagement was announced at the same time his solo record was announced (even though supposedly it had happened months before. Why wait? Oh yes…. The PR for herself! Use the attention for his projects to gain attention to yourself.)
S making this type of statement for this song sounds so disingenuous. She’s insisting she wants to stay Behind The Scenes yet she’s one of the songwriters and her airy vocals are mixed so high in the track that hers pretty much overshadow Luke’s. The title of the song is “Older (featuring Sierra Deaton)”. If you want to stay bts, this doesn’t look like how you would do it. This is such irony. And again, her narrative of the song uses the PR relationship for attention.
