Spice Girls singer Melanie Chisholm is officially off the market after saying “I do” to fiancé Chris Dingwall.
“I love weddings [and] when I go to other people’s I always have good craic, but I wasn’t a girl who grew up dreaming about her dress,” Chisholm, 52, told British Vogue in a Sunday, July 19, profile, announcing her nuptials. I was always just focused on my career. I think even relationships took a backseat for me because I’ve been so driven to do what I love, which is performing.”
She continued, “I’d gotten to the point in my life where I just didn’t think it was going to be a part of my story.”
Chisholm, mom to 17-year-old daughter Scarlett whom she welcomed during a previous relationship, changed her tune once she met Dingwall in 2024 via celebrity dating app Raya.
“The spark was immediate. I was 49 when I met Chris and I was in a really good place,” the singer recalled to the outlet. “We had a date in Australia, and it’s been difficult to separate us ever since. He’s been such a beautiful addition to mine and my daughter’s life.”
Chisholm gushed that it’s been “a beautiful dynamic” welcoming Dingwall into her family.
“I’m a single mum. My daughter is 17, and we’re pretty resilient, the two of us, we’re a team,” she stated. “For anybody coming into our world, it was going to be tough, and he just fits perfectly.”
Dingwall ultimately popped the question during the couple’s July 2025 Mallorca, Spain, vacation. The pair wed in a simple legal ceremony in Australia, followed by a relaxing celebration in Cumbria this summer.
“I didn’t feel like a big traditional wedding was right for me,” Chisholm acknowledged, revealing that she picked out a bridal gown from former bandmate Victoria Beckham’s eponymous label.
Spice Girl Melanie Chisholm says she made a “conscious” choice to keep her daughter out of the spotlight. Chisholm shares daughter Scarlet, 16, with ex-partner Thomas Starr, but despite her mom’s global fame, the teenager has no plans on following in her footsteps. The singer told The Times of London in an interview published on […]
“I was actually having dinner with Melanie and asked her what she was up to. She very casually told me she was leaving for Australia in two days and getting married!” Beckham, 52, told Vogue. “When I asked what she was wearing, she mentioned she had actually ordered one of my dresses but that it didn’t quite fit, and she didn’t have time to get it altered before leaving. I happened to have that exact dress in my own wardrobe and offered to lend it to her.”
Chisholm wore Beckham’s Lace Cami Dress to her Australian ceremony and the fashion designer also offered to make a bespoke creation for her friend’s lavish party in England.
“Victoria wanted to make it much more personal to me. She found some gorgeous vintage lace, and everything was really delicately dyed to the perfect shade,” the bride gushed. “It’s very flattering, open at the back.”
