The ceremony followed a private wedding in Sydney, Australia, though the date of their first celebration has not been publicly disclosed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sporty Spice admitted that although she loved attending other people\u2019s weddings, she didn\u2019t grow up dreaming about her wedding day. At one point, she even thought she would never walk down the aisle. Mel C and Dingwall started dating in 2023, and she said, \u201cThe spark was immediate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For her legal ceremony in Australia, Victoria Beckham came to the rescue. The two were having dinner when Mel C shared that the Victoria Beckham-designed dress she ordered didn\u2019t fit well, and there was no time to alter it. Beckham had the exact dress in her wardrobe in the right size and lent it to her friend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The singer said she loved the simplicity and femininity of the number, telling <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.co.uk\/gallery\/melanie-c-wedding-victoria-beckham-dress\">British Vogue<\/a><\/em>, \u201cVictoria\u2019s dress was my something borrowed.

The singer shared that she was in a \u201creally good place\u201d in her life at that time, and the filmmaker\u2019s calming presence was just what she needed. The couple has been inseparable ever since.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The former Spice Girl also revealed how Dingwall fit well in her and her daughter\u2019s lives. She shares her 17-year-old daughter, Scarlett, with her former partner, Thomas Starr. \u201cWe\u2019re pretty resilient the two of us, we\u2019re a team.

Afterward, they headed back to their room, where she was met with a spread of lit candles. \u201cIt was beautiful, just the two of us.
