Lord Mountbatten, the great-great-great-grandson of Queen Victoria made history when he became the first member of the Royal Family to reveal he was gay in 2016.
Although his extended Royal Family know of his plans to marry and are “really excited”, Lord Mountbatten revealed they will not make the wedding.
He said: “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”
The wedding ceremony will take place in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon with just close friends and family in attendance.
However the wedding reception will be a an intimate affair with 120 guests.
Meanwhile, the wedding will go against the tradition – and not include a first dance, wedding dance or white doves.
Speaking about his to marry again, Lord Mountbatten said it wasn’t for him because he has “been there, done that” but more for James.
He said: For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.
“James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that.”
