Then, on Valentine’s Day 2022, Bella posted on her Instagram, “15 years since we first met 💘,” revealing that they met in 2007. However, the couple definitely didn’t date during those years. Because, before Bella started dating Richard, she was engaged to film director Andrew Dominik. However, they called it quits by September 2018.

Richard Stampton’s work
As a young architect, Richard Stampton honed his skills working for Peter Corrigan in Melbourne and renowned Italian architect Renzo Piano in Paris. He then founded his own firm in 2009, Architect Richard Stampton. The studio is still active and based in Phillip Island. Richard always wanted his workspace to reflect his lifelong connection with the ocean and he is absolutely delighted with how it turned out.
Richard shares that while their work is primarily built in Melbourne, their studios are located on Phillip Island and Gipsy Point. (Gypsy Point, because Christy Bryar, a talented architect who has worked for Richard since 2011, is based there.) Richard muses that he and his team particularly enjoy switching between these settings.
Yet, despite all the greatness of his work, Richard himself has stated that he is not interested in standing out. That he is not particularly interested in publicity. He prefers to maintain a much quieter, slower and less ‘extreme’ approach to building design. But this certainly does not stop him from getting more and more attention as the days go by.
In 2019, Richard was instrumental in the renovation of a heritage listed building in the suburb of Collingwood, reimagining the Victorian space as ‘Simhanada’, an Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga studio.
Ultimately, Richard credits his success to his great teachers and mentors, noting that working for Peter and Renzo Piano both had a huge impact on him in very different ways.
