On Saturday, September 22, Lord Ivar Mountbatten tied the knot with partner James Coyle, in a private ceremony amongst the lavish greenery of Bridell Park, Devon.

Same-sex marriage has been legalized in the United Kingdom since 2014, with the exception of Northern Ireland. Soon after, in 2016, Mountbatten came out as homosexual. Despite being a member of the extended Royal family, being a third cousin once removed of Queen Elizabeth II, Mountbatten is making history with the first ever same-sex marriage associated with the British Royals.
