On Saturday, March 21, Amelia took to social media to reflect on the journey of her marriage, posting a series of images from their wedding. In her caption, she expressed her love, stating, “Three years 🤍🤍🤍 married to my best friend 🤍🤍🤍.” The nostalgic photos feature the couple during various moments of their wedding, including Amelia in her stunning long-sleeved floral dress, as well as moments of intimacy, such as embracing and sharing kisses.
Amelia’s twin sister, Eliza, was quick to convey her affection in the comments, celebrating her sister’s happiness. She wrote, “The best day ever 😍🥰♥️. Happy Anniversary my Mealsy and Grizzle♥️ I love you both so much.” The twins are the daughters of Charles Spencer, the 9th Earl Spencer, and his first wife, Victoria Aitken. They also share a strong bond with their siblings, Kitty and Louis.
The wedding venue held special significance for the couple, as it is not only where they exchanged vows but also where they first met during their time at the University of Cape Town. For Amelia, marrying in South Africa, a place rich with childhood memories, made the occasion even more profound. Speaking with Hello! magazine shortly after her wedding, she remarked, “It means so much to get married here. Growing up here together for the last 14 years, all of mine and Greg’s happiest times as a couple are here. It’s even more special now.”
Amelia’s bridal attire was a sight to behold, crafted by renowned designer Atelier Versace. The gown, taking over two months to create, was embellished with Swarovski crystals and intricate floral designs. Emphasising her excitement about the dress, she shared, “I have always loved Versace, and so it was a very easy decision and a dream come true.” The dress featured a remarkable two-and-a-half-metre train and a silk tulle veil to complete the look.
Greg, who balances his roles as an estate agent and fitness trainer, opted for a custom black suit tailored by Atelier Versace. The couple’s wedding was a family affair, with Greg’s father, Dave Mallett, officiating the ceremony. A joyous Asili choir performed the song “Hallelujah,” adding to the emotional atmosphere, while readings were delivered by their mothers and Greg’s sister and grandmother, which were personally chosen for the occasion.
The couple’s love story began over a decade ago, with Amelia and Greg dating for 11 years before becoming engaged in July 2020. The proposal itself was a romantic surprise, orchestrated at Clouds Estate in Stellenbosch, nicely intertwined with memories of their relationship. In a poignant gesture, Greg presented Amelia with a series of smaller boxes, each containing a photograph representing significant moments in their relationship. It culminated in a heartfelt proposal that took her completely by surprise, leading to an emotional “yes” response from Amelia.
Their relationship, although considerably private, often shines through in the glimpses they share on social media. Both have expressed a desire for intimacy in their lives away from the public eye, while allowing their followers to partake in their journey of love and togetherness.
As they celebrate this anniversary, their journey together showcases not only love and commitment but also a connection deeply rooted in shared experiences and cherished memories. It is a reminder of how love can bloom in familiar surroundings, making moments of joy even more treasured. Lady Amelia and Greg’s narratives resonate with themes of affection, familial bonds, and a celebration of enduring love.
