A British couple, Jamie Ray Greenlaw-Meek and Fiongal Greenlaw-Meek, co-founders of the popular spiritual wellness brand, The Wellness Foundry, shared a heartbreaking video just moments before boarding the doomed Air India flight that tragically crashed shortly after takeoff on Thursday.
The couple, known for their wellness and spiritual offerings, were among the 242 passengers aboard the flight, which went down shortly after departing. They were returning home after completing a 10-day wellness retreat in India, which they described as a “magical experience.”
The Final Video
In the video posted to their brand’s Instagram account, Fiongal, who previously worked as a fashion designer, can be seen saying, “We are at the airport, just boarding. Goodbye India.” His husband, Jamie, jokingly remarks about the long 10-hour flight ahead. The video captures the pair’s excitement and optimism as they prepare to head back home to London.
The couple had promised to share a vlog of their “mind-blowing” journey through India, with Jamie reflecting on their final night in the country, “We really have been on quite a journey. We just spent the last night here in the most amazing hotel and had the most delicious Thali. It was the perfect way to round off the trip.”

Devastating Loss
The crash, which left only one known survivor, has deeply shaken their family and the public. Jamie’s brother, Nick Meek, shared that the couple was expected to return that evening, with plans to collect their dog from their mother’s house. “We were expecting him to land at 6:30pm, then drive up to collect his dog from our mum’s house,” Nick said. “She’s not in a good way. It’s all very raw. We only found out a couple of hours ago.”
