Hugh Grosvenor to wed Olivia Henson and ‘build our lives together’ in cathedral city
The Duke of Westminster has revealed he will move from London to Chester after getting married in the city.
Hugh Grosvenor, the 7th Duke of Westminster, will wed duchess-to-be Olivia Henson in what is expected to be a grand occasion for Chester with invitations sent out to members of the Royal family.
The scenes are expected to echo the marriage of Lady Tamara Grosvenor and Edward van Cutsem at Chester Cathedral in November 2004, where thousands of onlookers lined the streets as they saw royal guests including Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Prince William and Prince Harry arrive.
Preparations for the big day on June 7 are well under way and the Duke acknowledged it was likely to be nerve-racking but added he was “unbelievably excited”.

The Duke told local paper The Standard: “We’ve obviously got a long association with the cathedral as a family so we were here for my father’s memorial, my sister’s wedding and every Remembrance Sunday that I can attend is here.
“But I’m unbelievably excited and I also wanted to make it very clear how unbelievably helpful people have been, how supportive they’ve been so far, which I’m unbelievably grateful for because I do realise that it’s going to be a big, big thing for the city.
