Fashion tycoon John Robinson, who employed Kate Middleton before she wed Prince William, has actually won a three-year battle to host wedding events at his Cotswolds estate.
The multi-millionaire founder of style chain Jigsaw had to get rid of objections from residents about noise pollution and overloaded roads. He was provided four months' notice in 2022 to stop hosting events at his ₤ 12 million residential or commercial property, Euridge Manor.
But, after a nine-day public inquiry, Robinson, 77, has been given consent to continue hosting occasions on the stretching 450-acre estate, where Poldark star Eleanor Tomlinson exchanged swears with rugby gamer Will Owen.
'Euridge Manor Weddings is thrilled at the grant of preparing consent,' a spokesperson states.
When Robinson bought Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, outbuildings and three cottages. But the magnate extended the estate, purchasing 250 acres of surrounding land, and building 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 signed up company Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and began hosting events.

Neighbours complained about traffic, music and firework screens lasting into the little hours and said the estate did not have authorization for 'change of use' in order to host weddings.
After two planning applications and an appeal, planning consent has actually now been approved based on a variety of conditions to manage noise and address highway safety concerns.
No cut costs for Stella's clan
You might think 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 doesn't cut any ice with Sir Paul's child, fashion designer Stella.
'When I was younger, my Nana took me to Paris due to the fact that I desired to be a designer as I was doing textiles GCSE,' states Sophie.
'We went to drop in Stella. She was at Chloe at the time. I did get some sunglasses and a Chloe [bag] But that's it.
'But no I have actually never had any Stella McCartney discount rate.
'I 'd take 25 (percent).'

Lily's good friends get a wake-up call as star states she ranks them
Anyone receiving unforeseen FaceTime calls from Lily Allen for catch-up chats maybe should not feel too honoured or excited - up until they have actually exercised its duration and the interval given that the last one.
'I produce lists of people who I like in order of how much I like them,' the pop vocalist, 40, reveals. 'I send that list to my assistant and ask her to schedule the time for me to have FaceTimes with them.'
In March, I revealed that Lily's spouse, Stranger Things star David Harbour, had actually been having an affair with a coworker. 'David cheated on Lily,' an associate told me. 'They satisfied on a movie 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 Lady).
Now, however, she's fed up with composing for others. 'I am done with that,' states Dennis, 56.
'There have been lots of [taping] sessions where I've been asked to enter into a box and one day I just think, "No, say goodbye to". I will continue to compose, but I am not composing music in the very same method.'
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 genuine life.
The starlet, 60, admits she lost her cool at Arizona's Grand Canyon. 'I behaved rather badly,' she tells Travel Secrets podcast.
'I scheduled a "1930s cabin" - when I acted I was like, "This is s ***". I stated, "You need to move me". I can kicking up a hassle.'

' [It's] the only time he's ever asked me to stop doing something,' she exposes. 'He stated, "At the surgery I've got 10 minutes with each client. And eight minutes is taken up with what you've stated the day previously. I'm concerned I'm going to misdiagnose somebody, so please could you stop?'
