At a country house in Cumbria, Melanie Chisholm — once the world's Sporty Spice — exchanged vows with Australian model Chris Dingwall on a quiet Saturday, three decades after pop stardom first made her name. Three of her former Spice Girls bandmates bore witness, and Victoria Beckham, absent but present in thread and fabric, dressed the bride. The ceremony was less a celebrity spectacle than a considered arrival: a woman of 52 choosing stillness, partnership, and a new home in Bondi over the perpetual motion that defined her life's first act.
