Much of the couple’s romance has been kept under wraps. In an interview withTown and Countryin May, Spencer said discussing her love life in public leaves her feeling “vulnerable.”
“I just think, ‘Really, what’s that got to do with anyone else?’ It shouldn’t make a difference to anyone’s day. Who I love or don’t love, or have a crush on or don’t have a crush on, or go on a date with, I don’t know why that should be what somebody reads over their cornflakes,” Spencer said. “As long as I keep it sacred, then it can remain so. As soon as I don’t, I don’t think you can get it back.”

Italy has a special place in Spencer’s heart, too. On top of studying in Florence for three years, the model made her catwalk debut for Dolce & Gabbana in 2017, though she almost declined the offer.
“It was terrifying!” she toldTown and Country. “I was 26 and working full-time for a charity, and I loved it, but it’s very different from that world of style. I went home and spoke to my family, and my mum said, ‘Well, why don’t you?'”
