Overview
- Ella Mountbatten married Fergus Wright at St Luke’s Church in Milland in a ceremony held on Thursday that was described by family sources as emotional and private.
- Lord Ivar Mountbatten walked his eldest daughter down the aisle and his past 2018 same-sex union has been used in coverage to frame the family’s modern profile.
- Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, attended the wedding and Prince Edward is reported to be Ella’s godfather.
- Geo News reported that Prince Edward signed the marriage register and that about 200 guests attended, but those specific details have limited corroboration in other outlets.
- Ella gave a reception speech that broke with long-standing wedding custom, the engagement was first revealed by Lord Ivar on Instagram in July 2025, and the family’s Bridwell Park estate was sold and vacated in 2024.
