His sisters have recently made the move from Cape Town to London, and Samuel Aitken could soon follow into their footsteps.
The 18-year-old son of Lady Kitty Spencer told Tatler’s March issue he has his sights on joining Edinburgh University, which was previously attended by his brother Louis Spencer, 27.
Samuel is the son of Victoria Aitken – who was previously married to Princess Diana’s brother Earl Spencer – and her second husband Jonathan Aitken
His sisters Amelia and Eliza Spencer, 29, have already taken the leap and moved to the UK in June last year, settling well into London’s social circles.
Samuel, who confirmed in October he was dating South African beauty Noa Duckitt, said walking Kitty, 31, down the aisle during her glitzy wedding to business tycoon Micheal lewis, 62, in July was one of the ‘proudest moments’ of his life.
For the interview, the socialite, who just graduated from Bishops Diocesan College in Cape Town, flashed his toned physique in a topless picture and posed with his mother, admitting he is an ‘unashamed mummy’s boy.’

Contemplating a possible future in the UK, the socialite said: ‘I would like to end up at Edinburgh University. That’s where Louis was, so I would like to follow in his footsteps.’
And the socialite teased he rarely covers up his abs, saying: ‘Most of the time when I’m at home I rarely even have a T-shirt on: I’m just in my shorts as it can get quite hot. I’m like Tarzan; I’m hardly in much.’
Kitty, Eliza and Amelia all played a very important part in Samuel’s childhood, and he admitted he was ‘spoilt’ by his siblings.
He said he ‘liked to think they were my mum sometimes. I was the most looked after, most spoilt, most loved: I got all the attention. I was like the little prince of the family.’

Dubbing himself an ‘unashamed mummy’s boy,’ Samuel said he was closest to his mother, Victoria, left, who married his father in 2005 and was previously married to Earl Spencer, with whom she shared four children

However, his mother Victoria, 56, who married his father in 2005, is the person he is closest to in the family.
‘I am an unashamed mummy’s boy. I’m very grateful to her for providing me with this life and education; she is so giving. I’m closest to her out of anyone. She has just done the most for me by miles,’ he said.
Samuel caught the attention of the world when he stood next to Kitty and their brother Louis during the model’s wedding.
The heir said he has a close bond with his sister and admitted he didn’t except the moment to be emotional.
‘Kitty is so close to both of us, so it was natural that we were both by her side,’ he told the magazine.
‘I didn’t expect it to be emotional, I’m not really an emotional person, but walking her down the aisle was also one of the proudest moments of my life.
‘I was very touched to have been asked, together with my brother, Louis. It was a spontaneous and beautiful moment,’ he added.
Samuel, pictured with his sister Kitty on her extended honeymoon in Milan, said that his older sibling and her twin sisters treated him ‘like a prince’ when he was growing up
Edinburgh singletons hoping to seduce the South African heir might be in for a tough awakening.
Samuel confirmed he was as happy in love as his eldest sister this summer, when he declared his love for Noa Duckitt.
The teenager, who recently signed with 20 Model Management, declared his love for the brunette beauty in a gushing Instagram post for her birthday. It is thought the couple had been together for six months at the time.
‘I will not let you have me without the madness that makes me. If our demons cannot dance, neither can we. Happy Birthday my Noa, I love you,’ he wrote.
The relationship has the support of their family including Lady Kitty, who shared her own birthday message to Noa.

Samuel, brought Noa as his date to an end of year prom in August, sparking speculation they might be more than just friends.
Noa, a budding performer, looked stunning in a red evening dress, while Samuel dressed up in a navy double breasted suit and open collar shirt.
Proud Samuel shared photos of the event on his public Instagram account, where he boasts more than 7,000 followers, with the caption: ‘Unbelievable time with the most incredible date @noaaa.duckitt.’
Excited Kitty, 30, was among those who commented on the snaps, saying: ‘You guys @samuelaitken_ @noaaa.duckitt most beautiful couple!!’
Greg Mallett, who is engaged to Kitty and Samuel’s sister Amelia, added: ‘Power duo this. Yowza.’
