Prince Harry married Meghan Markle in the medieval splendour of St George’s Chapel, Windsor, in front of hundreds of guests ranging from Queen Elizabeth to chat show queen Oprah Winfrey, as well as a global television audience of millions.
His ex–girlfriend preferred something more intimate.
Chelsy Davy, 40, whose on–off relationship with Harry lasted for seven years until 2011, has revealed she exchanged vows with Norfolk hotelier Sam Cutmore–Scott, 40, on a beach in Mauritius.
And while the Sussexes moved to Meghan’s native California, she and Sam plan to emigrate from Chiswick, west London, to ‘paradise’ on the Indian Ocean archipelago.
‘We got locked down on the island while visiting my parents during Covid and, while we were here, we got a bit further under the skin of the place from a non–holidaying perspective,’ the Zimbabwe–born jewellery designer explains. ‘We’re now in the process of moving out here [semi] full time.’
She adds of Mauritius: ‘Many people think of it as just a holiday destination, but it’s so much more than that. My parents are based there full time now and, since spending more time visiting them with my kids recently, I’ve discovered there’s a much deeper world which sets it apart from other tropical destinations like the Maldives or the Seychelles.’
I disclosed in 2022 that the couple had married in secret, but the venue was never known. She and Sam, who was in the year above Harry at Eton College, have a son, Leo, and a daughter, Chloe.
While former actress Meghan’s Givenchy bridal gown cost an estimated £200,000, Chelsy says: ‘I bought my wedding dress from a hotel boutique the day before my wedding and was very pleased with it.’

Cameron’s mother leaves £1m
David Cameron’s mother, Mary, who died in February aged 90, has left a fortune of almost £1million.
Newly published probate documents show that Mrs Cameron, who served as a magistrate for 30 years, bequeathed a total of £957,000, which has been put in trust for her family.
She made headlines in 2016 by signing a petition against planned children’s centre closures in Tory–run Oxfordshire after budgets were slashed by the government of which her son was prime minister.
Will the fur fly over Freddy’s party outfit?
Freddy Brazier is said to have dumped his pregnant girlfriend in a row over his beloved dog, Pablo.
But he seems to be less protective when it comes to another four–legged creature.
The model, 21, who competed alongside his father Jeff on the BBC’s hit show Race Across The World, wore what appeared to be a vintage mink stole, pictured right, as he arrived at Claridge’s in Mayfair for the unveiling of the Burberry–sponsored Christmas tree.

Fergie’s cash goes vVoosh
Stripped of her Duchess of York title by King Charles, Sarah Ferguson has suffered a new blow.
I hear she’s been left £50,000 out of pocket from the collapse of vVoosh, the London tech start–up founded by soldier turned film producer and entrepreneur Manuel Fernandez.
The pair were pictured in the south of France, Spain and at the chalet she co–owned with Andrew in Verbier, Switzerland, in 2015. She even took him along to Bob Geldof’s wedding. Fergie, 66, declared Fernandez, 57, a ‘wonderful person’, a ‘friend’ and a ‘business partner’, and introduced him to investors with deep pockets.
Her company, La Luna Investments, is listed as a loan creditor in a newly published statement of affairs for vVoosh, which offered a ‘revolutionary’ service connecting people with shared interests. It’s one of five such creditors owed a total of £270,000.
Why Ruth won’t get tweakments
Ruth Wilson is resisting getting cosmetic treatments because they fail to leave women looking younger, she says.

‘It’s really hard because the pressure is on,’ admits the Luther star, pictured. ‘Everyone does something to their face. I don’t think it makes you look younger, it just makes you look like you’ve had stuff done.’
Ruth, 43, adds: ‘You look at people who are 60 or 70, and someone has had work and someone hasn’t, they don’t really look different ages.’
