Mel and Rory have been dating since 2019 and, in 2021, Rory proposed with a £100,000 engagement ring.
One insider told the Sun hat Mel said 'yes' immediately, adding: 'But it was incredibly emotional because after everything she has been through, it was a really big moment for her.'
Mel has previously said: 'Because I have an MBE I can get married at the same place Princess Diana married Charles. I'm still waiting to here back from St. Paul's Cathedral in London.
'We have put all our forms in and we are just waiting on them to give us the day.'
The chapel at St Paul's Cathedral is reserved for exclusive use by those with an MBE or OBE. Mel received an MBE in 2022 for her services to charitable causes and vulnerable women.
Mel has also also delighted fans by revealing that a certain Spice Girl would be designing her wedding dress.
'Once I get the date, I will go wedding dress shopping. Victoria Beckham wants to make me a dress,' she said.
Mel has been married twice previously, first to Dutch dancer Jimmy Gulzar and second to film producer Stephen Belafonte.

She has three children: Phoenix, 24, with Jimmy, Angel, 15, with American actor Eddie Murphy, and Madison Belafonte, 12, with Stephen.
Mel revealed that her fellow Spice Girls have given her fiancé the seal of approval and even cried at the news of their engagement.
The pair have known each other for many years, with them both being from Leeds and Rory being best friends with Mel's cousin, Christian Cooke.
She and Rory are thought to have been reintroduced through friends in LA, including celebrity make-up artist Renee Camilleri.
Their relationship then became more serious when Mel returned to the UK for the Spice Girls reunion tour.
