Lady Kitty Spencer is reportedly engaged to her 60-year-old beau, Michael Lewis.

Kitty, who is Princess Diana's 29-year-old niece and a first cousin of Prince Harry and William, is said to be marrying the multi-millionaire, who is 31 years her senior.

While Kitty hasn't confirmed the news yet (and she's quite active on Instagram, where she has more than 500,000 followers, so if true expect to see a dazzling ring in a post soon), the Daily Mail reports that Lewis proposed to her during engagement season right before Christmas.

She was visiting Cape Town for the holidays with her family when he popped the question and was spotted wearing a diamond ring.

Lady Kitty grew up in Cape Town, and Lewis is also from South Africa. He's 61, which means he's older than her father, Earl Spencer. Lewis is the chairperson of fashion brand Foschini and is said to be worth more than $150 million. He is reportedly divorced with three grown up children.

If she is getting married, the wedding dress will surely be a glamorous one. The model is a Dolce & Gabbana ambassador and also works with Bvlgari.

The couple was first spotted together in May of 2019 when they went for a walk in New York City. Before she linked up with Lewis, she was dating Italian property tycoon Niccolo Barattieri di San Pietro​, who is also an older gentleman at 51. He went on to date Elizabeth Hurley.

Lady Kitty's upcoming nuptials should be quite a regal affair as she is a first cousin of Prince Harry and Prince William and attended both of their weddings. She also has a whole slew of celebrity friends, including Ellie Goulding, and plenty of fashion designers in her inner circle, so prepare for the next big royal wedding (besides Beatrice, of course).
