Phoebe Knatchbull marries childhood sweetheart in Portugal

Phoebe Knatchbull and long-term partner investment banker Leopold Glover toasted their union during a multi-day fête held at the Solar da Levada estate in Portugal. The party followed an intimate London civil ceremony.

The 30-year-old healthcare agency director-who is stepdaughter to former Curzon Cinemas CEO Philip Knatchbull and is related to Lord Mountbatten- invited friends and family for the multi-day celebration.

Knatchbull and Glover’s relationship began when they met in school at Garden House School in Chelsea and have continued to have a fairytale life together, with Glover proposing in Central Park with a sapphire trilogy ring.
