The meeting sparked a love affair which grew to become a romantic and culminated in a marriage proposal in 2003 in a Paris bar, and they married a year later, in a ‘talk of the town’ wedding in Paris. It was reported that Chris gave Vicky a Harry Winston diamond ring; Chris’ best man was agent Jeff Kwatinetz.
