Lady Eliza Spencer, the elegant niece of the late Princess Diana, is officially engaged to her longtime boyfriend Channing Millerd.

The announcement came via a heartwarming Instagram post, where Eliza—dressed in a flowing red gown—showed off her sparkling diamond ring against a breathtaking sunset backdrop.

In the images, Spencer is seen placing a hand on Millerd’s cheek, with a radiant smile on her face, as the golden hour casts a romantic glow over the sea. The caption was simple yet powerful: “Forever and Ever.” The moment, captured against one of the world’s most iconic views, reflects the timeless elegance associated with the Spencer family.

Eliza Spencer is the daughter of Earl Charles Spencer—Princess Diana’s younger brother—and former model Victoria Aitken. At 33, Eliza has made a name for herself not only as a member of British aristocracy but also as a fashion model alongside her twin sister, Amelia Spencer. The twins live in London and have been featured in various high-fashion campaigns.

Amelia Spencer, who tied the knot in 2023 with her longtime partner Greg Mallett in Cape Town, shares a close bond with Eliza. Their younger brother Louis, Viscount Althorp, and elder sister Lady Kitty Spencer are also part of this extended aristocratic family, along with half-siblings Lady Charlotte, Lady Lara, and Ned Spencer.

Eliza and Channing Millerd’s love story began in 2016 at a dinner party in South Africa. Introduced by mutual friends—including Amelia and Greg Mallett—the couple quickly formed a strong bond. Raised in Cape Town like Eliza, Millerd is a South African entrepreneur and businessman.

Speaking to Hello! magazine earlier this year, Spencer opened up about their bond, calling Millerd her best friend. “We understand each other so well, and no matter what life brings, we’re always there for one another,” she said. The couple is said to be planning a destination wedding, continuing the romantic thread woven through their love story.
