@iamchelseagray commented: "Beautiful couple. It’s super lovely to see you so happy Faye", while @valentinamentessi added: "What a beautiful and gorgeous photo of you both".

Fans were also quick to admire Faye's beautiful green gown. @sophietehrani said: "Omg Faye that dress," with a heart-eye emoji while @iamkateliving added: "Goddess in green," with a green heart emoji.
