Prince William’s cousin Phoebe Knatchbull has tied the knot in a stylish ceremony in London. 

The 29-year-old Mountbatten heiress, who is the great-granddaughter of the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma, looked the epitome of bridal perfection as she was pictured sharing a kiss with her investment banker husband Leopold Glover on Saturday. 

The newlyweds oozed glamour as they stood amid a shower of confetti on steps outside the a registry office in Chelsea and Kensington – where the likes of Crown Princess Marie Chantal of Greece, Judy Garland, and Wallis Simpson once celebrated their own nuptials. 

Despite her royal connections, Phoebe is known for largely shying away from the spotlight – a sentiment that was reflected in the lowkey registry nuptial on Saturday as the couple appeared to be in the company of just close friends and family. 

The Prince of Wales – who is Phoebe’s third cousin – was not in attendance, as he and Kate are visiting the Caribbean paradise of Mustique – a trip that also saw him miss Sunday’s BAFTAs. 

The newlyweds were pictured in a slew of snaps posted to Instagram by Phoebe’s sister, Daisy, on Saturday. The bride herself currently has her Instagram account set to private.

Phoebe, who works as the global account development director at Freuds+ in New York, looked radiant in a casual but stylish ensemble featuring a cream tuxedo-style mini dress from Daisy’s brand, Knatchbull, formerly known as The Deck.

She finished the look with a set of beige slingback stilettos and held a dainty bouquet of white roses in her left hand.

The heiress wore her thick blonde tresses curled into soft mermaid waves that cascaded down her back.

Phoebe’s great-grandfather is the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma, making her a third cousin of Prince William and Prince Harry.  

Phoebe and her new husband got engaged in January in New York earlier this year, where they have reportedly been living for just over a year.

She told The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden that the pair had known each other since they were at £28,000-per-year Garden House preparatory school together in Chelsea. 

The nuptials offered the chance for the distantly related royal to enjoy time among close friends and family members, many of whom have royal connections. 

During her childhood, Patricia, and her younger sister, Lady Pamela Hicks, enjoyed playing alongside the future Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret.

Then, as she reached adulthood, Patricia married Lord Brabourne in 1947, where Princess Elizabeth, Princess Margaret, Lady Pamela, and Princess Alexandra of Kent all served as her bridesmaids. 

The couple spent a long and happy marriage together, raising eight children in total.

Who are the Mountbattens and why do they share a surname with Prince Harry’s kids? Meet some VERY bohemian Royal relatives including one on a houseboat, a Made in Chelsea star and someone who married a mermaid!

The Mountbattens share a relationship so close with the British monarchy that Prince Harry’s children, Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie, carry its surname (hyphenated with Windsor).

It total there are 29 Mountbatten great grandchildren, all of whom have go on to lead drastically different lives – with many, including Phoebe opting to step out the spotlight.

Phoebe’s parents, Philip and Atalanta, separated when she was young. Her father then went on to marry Wendy Leach, with whom he went on to have two children: Freddy, who is known for his appearance on Made in Chelsea, and Rocky. 

Freddy, who is just 21-years-old, previously told Tatler that he shares a close bond with his sister. He told the publication the family enjoy an annual holiday together in the Bahamas, describing the tradition as ‘magical’. 

Freddy is also a student and model who was signed to the Select agency after being spotted walking down London’s Oxford Street. 

Phoebe’s uncle is the current Earl of Mountbatten, who lives at the family seat, Broadlands with Penny – who was known to be Prince Phillip’s closest friend.

Her ties to Prince’s William and Harry come from her relation to 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma, who is her great-grandfather.

Phoebe and her husband announced their engagement in January earlier this year, sharing a loved-up picture on Instagram in Central Park in New York where the two have recently been residing. 

The excited bride-to-be held up a set of perfectly manicured fingernails, showing off a gleaming sapphire ring to the camera. 

At the time of their engagement, the cousin of Prince William told The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden that already had plans to ditch the traditional white gown and instead hoped to borrow a suit from her sister, Daisy’s brand, Knatchbull, formerly known as The Deck.

She said she’d be ‘crazy not to’, adding all brides who dress in Knatchbull suits look ‘incredible.’
