Fashion tycoon John Robinson, who employed Kate Middleton before she wed Prince William, has won a three-year battle to host weddings at his Cotswolds estate.

The multi-millionaire founder of style chain Jigsaw had to overcome objections from locals about sound pollution and overloaded roads. He was offered four 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 given approval to continue hosting occasions on the sprawling 450-acre estate, where Poldark star Eleanor Tomlinson exchanged pledges with rugby player Will Owen.

'Euridge Manor Weddings is happy at the grant of planning authorization,' a spokesman says.

When Robinson bought Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, sheds and 3 cottages. But the magnate extended the estate, acquiring 250 acres of surrounding land, and constructing an orangery with two bedrooms and an indoor swimming pool.

He wed now ex-wife Belle at Euridge in 2004. After their divorce in 2014, Robinson registered company Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and began hosting ceremonies.

Neighbours grumbled about traffic, music and firework display screens lasting into the little hours and said the estate did not have authorization for 'change of use' in order to host wedding events.

After two preparation applications and an appeal, preparing authorization has now been granted based on a range of conditions to control noise and address highway safety issues.

No cut prices for Stella's clan

You might believe the name McCartney would open doors and curry favours - particularly for a relation of Sir Paul.

But comedienne Sophie McCartney, a cousin of the former Beatle, states it does not cut any ice with Sir Paul's daughter, fashion designer Stella.

'When I was more youthful, my Nana took me to Paris due to the fact that I wanted to be a designer as I was doing fabrics GCSE,' says Sophie.

'We went to go and see Stella. She was at Chloe at the time. I did get some and a Chloe [bag] But that's it.

'But no I have actually never had any Stella McCartney discount.

'I 'd take 25 (per cent).'

Lily's good friends get a wake-up call as star states she ranks them

Anyone receiving unanticipated FaceTime calls from Lily Allen for catch-up talks perhaps shouldn't feel too honoured or excited - up until they have actually worked out its period and the period considering that the last one.

'I develop lists of people who I like in order of how much I like them,' the pop singer, 40, reveals. 'I send out that list to my assistant and ask her to arrange the time for me to have FaceTimes with them.'

In March, I exposed that Lily's husband, Stranger Things star David Harbour, had been having an affair with a coworker. 'David cheated on Lily,' an associate informed me. 'They fulfilled on a film they did together.'

Having been a pop star herself in the 1980s and '90s, Cathy Dennis went on to make up hits for Kylie Minogue, with Can't Get You Out Of My Head, Britney Spears (Toxic) and Katy Perry (I Kissed a Woman).

Now, however, she's fed up with composing for others. 'I am finished with that,' states Dennis, 56.

'There have been lots of [tape-recording] sessions where I've been asked to enter into a box and one day I simply believe, "No, no more". I will continue to write, but I am not writing music in the very same way.'

Duckface is a punchy guest

She knocked Hugh Grant's character flat out after being jilted in Four Weddings And A Funeral, and 'duckface' Anna Chancellor is practically as pugnacious in real life.

The actress, 60, confesses she lost her cool at Arizona's Grand Canyon. 'I behaved quite terribly,' she tells Travel Secrets podcast.

'I booked a "1930s cabin" - when I acted I was like, "This is s ***". I said, "You require to move me". I'm capable of kicking up a hassle.'

The Ritz played a key function in King Charles's life when he and Camilla Parker Bowles were envisioned leaving the London hotel in 1999 in their very first public look together as a couple.

And His Majesty was, I hear, fast to contact us earlier this year when The Ritz was awarded great dining's desirable honor.

'I got a nice little letter from King Charles, congratulating me on getting two Michelin stars,' John Williams, executive chef at The Ritz, tells me at the National Restaurant Awards, where The Ritz was crowned best in the UK.

GP error? You can blame Lesley!

Opera vocalist Lesley Garrett was a panellist on ITV's Loose Women for 4 years, but her hubby, retired GP Peter Christian, intervened.

' [It's] the only time he's ever asked me to stop doing something,' she exposes. 'He said, "At the surgical treatment I've got ten minutes with each client. And eight minutes is taken up with what you've said the day previously. I'm concerned I'm going to misdiagnose somebody, so please could you stop?'

Former 'It-girl' Tamara Beckwith's wild partying days aren't completely behind her if this picture is anything to go by

Tamara still has very bad routines!

Former 'It-girl' Tamara Beckwith's wild partying days aren't completely behind her if this picture is anything to pass.

Tamara, 55, attended the expensive dress tenth wedding event anniversary party of Sofia Barattieri Weinstein, co-chair of the London Air Ambulance, and her spouse, Brian Weinstein, in Sicily at the weekend.

Beckwith can be seen surrounded by fellow partygoers impersonated priests and nuns in these images she shared online.

'It was a magnificent example of when friends demonstrate how much they like their hosts,' says Tamara, who is married to Italian businessman Giorgio Veroni. 'Incredible dresses, head-dresses, naughty lace, brocades and captivated gardens filled with candlelight.'
