Speaking about her wedding dress designer, Mel told WWD earlier this year: "I found an amazing bridal boutique called Evelie in London and in one incredible afternoon, I found two perfect dresses." She added: "One beautiful classic dress by Josephine Scott, a British designer and one stunning dramatic dress by a U.S. designer, Justin Alexander."

And speaking of the type of ceremony she has organised, she explained that it will be "regal." She said: "This will be a very formal, English wedding where I want to feel regal and very proper. " She added: "All the ladies will wear hats or fascinators. Then, I'm having a second ceremony abroad, which will be more informal, sexy, and beautiful." Mel went on to say: "It's so important to feel completely in control of myself, from the way I look, to the place I live, to the people I surround myself with and the clothes that I wear." She continued: "My clothes, paid for with my money and chosen by me."

"So my dressing reflects where I'm at right now, and it's a call out to let all women who have been through abuse know that you can heal, you can start to recover and you can find yourself again." Mel - whose ex-husband Stephen Belafonte denied her claims of abuse - went on to reveal she how uses her outfits to reflect her healing.

She has been dating Rory since 2018.
