Fashion magnate John Robinson, who used Kate Middleton before she wed Prince William, has won a three-year fight to host wedding events at his Cotswolds estate.
The multi-millionaire creator of style chain Jigsaw needed to overcome objections from locals about sound pollution and overloaded roadways. He was provided 4 months' notification in 2022 to stop hosting occasions at his ₤ 12 million residential or commercial property, Euridge Manor.
But, after a nine-day public inquiry, Robinson, 77, has actually been approved authorization to continue hosting occasions on the stretching 450-acre estate, where Poldark star Eleanor Tomlinson exchanged promises with rugby player Will Owen.
'Euridge Manor Weddings is pleased at the grant of planning approval,' a spokesman says.
When Robinson bought Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, sheds and 3 homes. But the magnate extended the estate, acquiring 250 acres of surrounding land, and constructing an orangery with 2 bed rooms and an indoor pool.
He married now ex-wife Belle at Euridge in 2004. After their divorce in 2014, Robinson registered business Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and began hosting ceremonies.
