Davy and the royal were in a serious long-term relationship, which lasted from 2004 to 2011.
Here is a look at how Chelsy Davy became the person she is today.
Her family owned a farm in the country, and Davy grew up surrounded by wildlife and nature.
As she toldTatler, her childhood was like something out of a dream for the most part.
“There were often monkeys on the tennis court, jumping up and stealing the ball.”
Legislation created by Mugabe didn’t leave a lot of room for negotiation for the families who left.
All the good teachers left.
“So I came to school in England.”
She seemed immune to that common affliction sometimes called throne syndrome."
Harry himself has admitted as much.
In turn, he didn’t understand why she couldn’t support his goal of going to war.
I believe Chelsy found this even more difficult to deal with when she lived in England.
… Everyone has a limit as to what they can endure."
Harry worried more about what his family would expect from her.
Or the British public.
And the last thing I wanted was for Chels to change to accommodate them."
“But she wasn’t sure she wanted to have a chronic illness,” he wrote.
Ultimately, the couple parted ways.
Davy started AYA after training for a year at the Gemological Institute of America.
Davy returned to Africa, where the company ethically mines for gemstones.
Davy is particularly connected to the continent where she grew up.
In 2016, Davy toldTatlerthat she was inspired to start AYA while visiting her brother in Zambia.
As she put it, “I don’t think there are many out there.
I wanted it to be from Africa and made in Africa, but still high end.
And in 2022, she tied the knot herself.
Very few people knew about the wedding.”
The family is also believed to live in London.
As she described the vision toTatlerin 2020, Davy creates luxury trips throughout Africa for her clients.
I’m very knowledgeable about parts of Zambia and Cape Town."
“We want to curate the trip to fit with your definition of luxury.'
Slow fashion, high passion.”
