Lady Eliza Spencer, the niece of the late Princess Diana, is officially off the market after her tech executive boyfriend popped the question during a lavish getaway to the idyllic Greek island of Santorini. The romantic proposal marks the culmination of a decade-long love story between the royal relative and her now-fiancé.
A Fairytale Proposal in Santorini
The couple, who have kept their relationship largely private, chose the sun-drenched cliffs of Santorini for the life-changing moment. Surrounded by the Aegean Sea’s turquoise waters and the island’s iconic white-washed architecture, the tech executive got down on one knee to ask for Lady Eliza’s hand in marriage.
Sources close to the pair describe the proposal as "utterly magical," with the sunset providing a cinematic backdrop to the intimate occasion. The engagement ring, reportedly featuring a dazzling diamond, has already sparked admiration among royal watchers.
A Decade of Love
Lady Eliza, 30, and her fiancé have been together for an impressive 10 years, navigating their romance away from the public eye. The couple’s low-key approach has drawn comparisons to the late Princess Diana’s own desire for privacy in her personal life.
As the daughter of Charles Spencer, Princess Diana’s younger brother, Lady Eliza has maintained a relatively quiet presence within the extended royal family. Her engagement, however, is sure to draw attention given her connection to one of Britain’s most beloved figures.
What’s Next for the Happy Couple?
While wedding details remain under wraps, insiders suggest the ceremony will be an elegant yet understated affair, reflecting the couple’s preference for discretion. Given Lady Eliza’s royal lineage, however, it’s likely to include some notable guests from aristocratic circles.
The engagement adds another chapter to the Spencer family’s story, coming years after Lady Eliza’s older sister, Lady Kitty Spencer, married billionaire Michael Lewis in a lavish Italian ceremony in 2021.
