Fashion magnate John Robinson, who employed Kate Middleton before she wed Prince William, has won a three-year battle to host wedding events at his Cotswolds estate.

The multi-millionaire creator of fashion chain Jigsaw needed to overcome objections from locals about sound pollution and busy roadways. He was offered four months' notice in 2022 to stop hosting occasions at his ₤ 12 million residential or commercial property, Euridge Manor.

But, after a nine-day public questions, Robinson, 77, has actually been granted consent to continue hosting occasions on the stretching 450-acre estate, where Poldark star Eleanor Tomlinson exchanged pledges with rugby player Will Owen.

'Euridge Manor Weddings is thrilled at the grant of preparing permission,' a spokesman says.

When Robinson purchased Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, sheds and 3 homes. But the magnate extended the estate, acquiring 250 acres of surrounding land, and developing an orangery with 2 bed rooms and an indoor pool.

He married now ex-wife Belle at Euridge in 2004. After their divorce in 2014, Robinson signed up company Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and started hosting ceremonies.
