The nieces of Diana, Princess of Wales, Amelia and Eliza Spencer, were seen at the Melbourne races in Melbourne. Reports noted their appearance on the day of the event.

Princess Diana’s nieces, Lady Amelia Spencer and Lady Eliza Spencer, were invited to judge the Fashion on the Field competition. The sisters arrived wearing red dresses complemented by matching headbands, drawing attention from attendees and photographers alike.

The Melbourne Cup, a storied race held at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne, has taken place on the first Tuesday in November since 1876. The Fashion on the Field competition is a long-running highlight, drawing hundreds of spectators each year who hope to win the Best Dressed or Best Costume titles. The judging takes place prior to the race’s start, creating a sense of anticipation among attendees.

Amelia and Eliza are the daughters of Princess Diana’s younger brother, Charles Spencer, from his first marriage to Catherine Victoria Lockwood. Charles Spencer has a sister, Kitty, and a brother, Louis, along with a half-brother, Edmund, and sisters, Lara and Charlotte, stemming from his later marriages to Caroline Victoria Freud and Karen Gordon.

Amelia Spencer tied the knot with real estate professional Greg Mallett in March 2023. The marriage registration occurred atop a mountain near Cape Town, the capital city of the Republic of South Africa, marking a memorable ceremony in a dramatic setting.

In related coverage, Diana’s extended family continues to be highlighted in public appearances, with ongoing interest in how they carry forward the late princess’s legacy at major events and fashion-focused occasions.
