WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Lady Marina Windsor marries Nico Macauley in fairytale royal wedding

In a HELLO! world exclusive, we can reveal that Lady Marina Windsor has married Nico Macauley in a joyful ceremony on Saturday 20 June. The couple, who announced their engagement last summer, tied the knot in front of close family and friends at a church in the UK.

In an exclusive photograph shared with HELLO!, Lady Marina – the granddaughter of the late Duchess of Kent – looked radiant in an elegant white gown, while her new husband looked dapper in a dark suit. They were surrounded by proud relatives, including the bride’s grandfather, the Duke of Kent.

The custom wedding dress was created by sustainable atelier designer Larissa Von Planta, paired with a striking veil made of antique Hapsburg lace.

Completing the look was a tiara steeped in royal history. The exquisite heirloom once belonged to her great-grandmother, Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark, who inherited it from her mother-in-law, Queen Mary. Lady Marina’s aunt, Lady Helen Taylor, previously chose the iconic headpiece for her own 1992 wedding to Timothy Taylor.

The inclusion of the statement jewellery was particularly poignant following the sad passing of Marina’s grandmother, the Duchess of Kent, in September 2025 at the age of 92, who had also worn the headpiece. 

Lady Marina, 33, who works as an events manager, is the daughter of George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews, and Canadian academic and historian Sylvana Tomaselli, who both watched proudly from the pews. Her sister, Lady Amelia Windsor, and brother, Lord Downpatrick (known as Eddy), were also in attendance to celebrate the nuptials.

Meanwhile, Nico, 32, an account executive at a software company, is the great-grandson of legendary newspaper publisher William Berry, 1st Viscount Camrose.

The newlyweds originally shared their engagement on 8 June last year with an adorable selfie on social media. Marina took to Instagram to break the exciting news, writing, “Very happy!” alongside a series of photos showcasing her new engagement ring.

The announcement date held a deeply sentimental meaning, falling directly on her grandparents’ wedding anniversary; the Duke and Duchess of Kent famously said “I do” on 8 June 1961 in York.

Lady Marina supports Princess Eugenie‘s Blue Marine Foundation, where she works and advocates for ocean conservation. She attended the premiere of OCEAN alongside Sir David Attenborough at the Royal Festival Hall last year, praising it as “an extraordinarily important and breathtaking film.”
