Let’s take a look at how the Spencer sisters are living like modern-day princesses, and why they’re already dominating the London scene before two of them have even made their big move.
The Spencers: from Cape Town to London
All three sisters were born in London to Princess Diana’s brother, Earl Charles Spencer, and former model Victoria Aitken, before relocating to South Africa where they grew up in Cape Town.
They have a brother Louis Spencer, Viscount Althorp, and three step-siblings from their father’s other marriages, Lady Lara Spencer, Edmund Charles Spencer and Lady Charlotte Diana Spencer. After Earl Charles Spencer and Victoria divorced in 1997, Victoria had a son with Jonathan Aitken – Samuel Aitken – whom the girls are close with.

Meanwhile, their older sister Kitty, 32, has been a prominent figure on London’s high society social scene since 2016.
Luxury fashion fixtures
What’s more, all three sisters have managed to carve out a name for themselves in the fashion industry.
Kitty is a brand ambassador for Dolce & Gabbana, and walked for the fashion house back in 2018. She also appeared in several Bulgari campaigns that year, too.
Meanwhile, the twins have signed with Storm Model Management (the same agency as Kitty, and celebs like Behati Prinsloo, Mia Regan and Riley Keough), and have already worked with brands including Dior, Versace, Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors and Chaumet.All three attend fashion weeks from Milan to London.
Jet-setting schedules
Considering their wealthy upbringing, it’s hardly surprising to hear that the girls are used to travelling the world in style.
Eliza and Amelia have posted snapshots of their glam trips to NYC, Venice and Düsseldorf, while Kitty always seemed to be on the go before the pandemic, appearing in campaigns from Puerto Banús to Provence.

Enviable wardrobes
In the realm of high fashion, the Spencers reign supreme.
With access to the most exclusive events and designer collections, all three siblings are known to step out in fashionable ‘fits. From Alberta Ferretti and Zimmermann, to Jimmy Choo, Chopard and D&G.
Beautiful homes
Amelia and Eliza are much more private about their personal lives. They did, however, grow up with their sister in the wealthy suburb of Constantia, Cape Town, where high-end houses can go for about US$4 million, per Christie’s Real Estate.
Diana “did come and visit us in South Africa on a few occasions. She stayed with us, just before she passed away, at my father’s house here in Cape Town. We were very fortunate to have spent that time with her,” Eliza told British media.‘I actually worked’: Princess Siri of Thailand on her 18-year fashion career
Eliza currently lives in a gated home in the South Africans suburb of Claremont, according to British media. And let’s not forget the Spencer family’s historic 5,200 hectare Grade I listed stately home of Althorp in Northamptonshire in England, where the girls would spend time during the holidays.
Long-term loves
All three aristocrats are taken – and they have been for a while.
Kitty has found her happily ever after too, as she married 64-year-old millionaire Michael Lewis last year in what was described as a fairy tale wedding.
Royal events, of course – but will they be at the king’s coronation?
The girls occasionally show up to royal events, including the weddings of Prince William and Kate Middleton and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle (though Amelia reportedly didn’t attend the latter).
But will they be at the coronation of King Charles – their aunt’s ex-husband – in May? Only time will tell …
