=2021–22 season: Pairs debut with Digby
Vaipan-Law began contemplating switching to pair skating after suffering a knee injury and undergoing surgery. She officially began her pair skating career in December 2019 when she teamed up with fellow singles skater, Luke Digby.
Vaipan-Law/Digby made their international debut as a team at the 2021 CS Finlandia Trophy. They finished twelfth overall and recorded personal bests in all three segments of competition. The team competed at three more events throughout the fall, winning the 2021 Tayside Trophy and finishing fourth at both the 2021 Trophée Métropole Nice Côte d'Azur and the 2021 CS Warsaw Cup respectively.
At their first British Championships in November, Vaipan-Law/Digby narrowly took the title ahead of the long-dominant team Jones/Boyadji. Jones/Boyadji initially received the assignment to Great Britain's single berth in the pairs' field at the 2022 European Figure Skating Championships, but after Jones recorded a positive COVID-19 test shortly before the event, Vaipan-Law/Digby were assigned to replace them.
Vaipan-Law/Digby set a new personal best in the short program at 2022 Europeans but finished eighteenth in the segment and did not advance to the free skate.

Vaipan-Law/Digby began the 2022–23 figure skating season with a tenth-place finish at the 2022 CS Finlandia Trophy and a silver medal at the 2022 Tayside Trophy. On the 2022-23 ISU Grand Prix, they were the host-picked pair team for the 2022 MK John Wilson Trophy in Sheffield, where they finished seventh. Following this, the pair finished seventh at the 2022 CS Warsaw Cup.
Vaipan-Law/Digby went on to defend their title at the 2023 British Championships and were selected to compete at the European and World Championships.

Making their World Championship debut in Saitama, Japan, Vaipan-Law/Digby qualified for the free skate after placing seventeenth in the short program and went on to place sixteenth in the free skate, finishing in sixteenth place overall.

Beginning the season with two Challenger series assignments, Vaipan-Law/Digby came eighth at the 2023 CS Lombardia Trophy and fifth at the 2023 CS Autumn Classic International. They received an unexpected opportunity to compete on the Grand Prix when reigning world champions Miura/Kihara withdrew from the 2023 Skate America. They finished seventh at the event.
Vaipan-Law/Digby were ninth at the 2024 European Championships. At the 2024 World Championships, they attempted a more difficult jump in the short program than at the European Championships. Despite a mistake on it, they qualified for the free skate, and they ended in twentieth place.
