Described by The Times as the “most royal non-royal wedding of the year”, Hugh Grosvenor, one of Britain’s wealthiest men, is due to marry Olivia Henson today, Friday, 7 June, at Chester Cathedral in a spectacle reminiscent of a modern-day episode of Bridgerton.The 33 year old Duke of Westminster inherited his title - and the immense family fortune - when he was just 25 following the death of his father, the sixth Duke, in 2016.
Hugh benefitted from the ancient rule of primogeniture, meaning that he took priority over his older sisters because he was the male heir.
At the time of his succession, he inherited an estimated wealth of £9 billion and gained several new estates. He is also known by the titles of Marquess of Westminster, Earl Grosvenor, Viscount Belgrave and Baron Grosvenor.
