After meeting and getting engaged in South Africa, Spencer and Mallett announced they were relocating their lives to the UK two years ago, but it's clear the country still holds a very special place in their hearts.

"It means so much to get married here," the 30-year-old bride told Hello! magazine.

The couple teased the upcoming nuptials in a joint post on social media last Thursday, saying "Not long now".

Fitness and nutrition coach Greg, who is the nephew of former South African national rugby coach Nick Mallett, proposed to his bride at Clouds Wine & Guest Estate, a vineyard east of Cape Town, in July 2020.

The groom joked in a social media post on the anniversary of his proposal last year that the couple were "taking scenic route" to their big day.

Amelia is the daughter of Diana's brother, Charles, and his first wife, former model Victoria Lockwood.
