Reality television star Amy Child offered a stunning preview of her intricate lace wedding gown on Monday, radiating elegance as she prepares to finally walk down the aisle with fiancé Billy Delbosq. The 35-year-old TOWIE personality, who was forced to postpone her original wedding plans last year following her mother Julie's serious health crisis, shared the captivating glimpse with her followers on Instagram.
Elegant Preview of the Wedding Dress
Amy looked absolutely sensational in the off-the-shoulder dress, which featured a daring plunging neckline and graceful bell sleeves. She accentuated her natural features with flawless makeup and chose to forgo a necklace, instead opting for a pair of vintage-inspired pearl earrings that added a touch of classic sophistication. The bride-to-be captioned the brief clip simply with the heartfelt words, "I'm getting married," signaling her excitement and anticipation for the upcoming nuptials.
Family Background and Previous Postponement
Amy and Billy, who is 42 years old, are parents to 18-month-old twins named Billy and Millie. Additionally, Amy is mother to daughter Polly, aged eight, from her previous relationship with builder Bradley Wright, and son Ritchie, aged five, from another former partner. The couple's wedding was initially scheduled for last year but had to be called off due to the sudden and severe health issues faced by Amy's mother, Julie.
In May 2025, Julie suffered a heart attack that required emergency hospitalisation and surgery, a shocking event as she had displayed no prior symptoms. This medical emergency understandably took precedence, leading Amy and Billy to delay their big day. Amy had previously explained to New! magazine that they planned to reschedule, aiming for a celebration the following year after getting through the summer.
Wedding Planning and Future Aspirations
Despite the pressure being off with the postponement, Amy revealed that she had nearly everything sorted for the original date except for the most crucial element: her wedding dress. She had begun searching for the perfect gown, consulting designers and even enlisting a stylist for assistance. However, her mother's health crisis turned her life upside down, forcing her to prioritise family care over wedding preparations.
Billy expressed optimism about the delay, suggesting that the extra time would allow them to plan an even more spectacular event. He mentioned ideas such as a two-day celebration in England or a week-long destination wedding abroad, highlighting their desire for a memorable and amazing occasion.
Mother's Recovery and Ongoing Support
Thankfully, Julie has since recovered well after having a stent inserted and is now in good health. Amy has been by her side daily, juggling the responsibilities of caring for her children while ensuring her mother's wellbeing. She shared that they were in Tenerife when the heart attack occurred, and she immediately flew home to be with Julie during the critical period.
Julie, who is known to fans from her appearance on Amy's 2011 reality show "It's All About Amy," is expected to discuss her health journey in upcoming scenes on TOWIE. This update comes just days after Amy and her daughter Polly made a rare red carpet appearance at the Hoppers UK premiere in London, showcasing their continued public engagements amidst personal challenges.
