Background on the Duke and Duchess
Hugh Grosvenor, the 7th Duke of Westminster, is a prominent British aristocrat and businessman. Born on January 29, 1991, he inherited the dukedom in 2016, becoming one of the UK’s wealthiest individuals. The Grosvenor family estate encompasses significant portions of London’s Mayfair and Belgravia districts. Hugh maintains close ties with the British royal family, serving as godfather to Prince George of Wales and Prince Archie of Sussex.
Olivia Grosvenor, née Henson, was born on September 1, 1992, in London. She attended Marlborough College, the same school as the Princess of Wales, before graduating from Trinity College, Dublin, with a degree in Hispanic Studies and Italian. Professionally, Olivia has been involved in the sustainable food and drinks industry, working with companies like Belazu and Daily Dose.
Their Relationship and Marriage
The couple began their relationship in 2021 and announced their engagement in April 2023. Hugh proposed at Eaton Hall, his family’s estate in Cheshire. They wed on June 7, 2024, at Chester Cathedral, with notable attendees including the Prince of Wales, who served as an usher, and Princess Eugenie. Olivia’s wedding gown featured embroidery inspired by her great-great-grandmother’s 1880 veil, and she wore the 1906 Grosvenor diamond tiara by Fabergé.
Anticipation of the New Arrival
The announcement of their first child has been met with widespread joy. Given Hugh’s close relationship with the royal family, there is speculation that the Prince of Wales may be chosen as a godparent. The forthcoming addition to the Grosvenor family is eagerly awaited, marking a new chapter in the legacy of one of Britain’s most esteemed aristocratic families.
