Princess Diana’s niece is far from the royal life, living an ultra-private life with her billionaire husband. Lady Kitty Spencer, 35, bears a striking resemblance to her aunt and some say she is living the dream Diana never could.
Kitty is the eldest daughter of Charles, the 9th Earl Spencer, and model Victoria Lockwood. She keeps her husband Michael Lewis, 67, and their three-year-old daughter Athena, out of the public eye, rarely sharing photos and attending events solo.
The Lady Spencer travels the world, visiting the Hamptons, Cape Town, the French Riviera, and Florence. She was seen partying with A-listers at Cannes Film Festival and with Princess Charlene and Prince Albert of Monaco at the Bal de la Rose charity gala.
Last week, Kitty shared photos of the “sweetest summertime” in the Hamptons with her family, including a video of Michael and Athena playing in the sea.
In other photos, she showed herself in a bikini, family trips to the supermarket, footprints in the sand, and Athena feeding farm animals.
Kitty met Michael in 2018 through mutual friends and married three years later in Italy. Two years later, in 2023, the couple welcomed Athena, only announcing her birth in 2024.
Lady Kitty is a first cousin to Princes William and Harry, which means that Athena is a second cousin to Princes George, Louis and Archie as well as Princesses Charlotte and Lilibet.
Princess Diana reportedly once dreamed of a similar life, with friends suggesting she wanted to move to America for a quieter life with her two children, Prince William and Prince Harry.
In 2020 Diana's former butler, Paul Burrell, told CBS News: 'I remember she set out in her sitting room, the plans of a home in Malibu…and she said to me: "I'm buying this house, to give William and Harry a new perspective on life."'
