Kirstie Allsopp marries partner of 21 years in 'elegant and lowkey' ceremony inside Love Actually chapel


Location, Location, Location star Kirstie Allsopp has married her partner Ben Andersen after 21 years together. The pair exchanged vows in a secret ceremony inside the Love Actually chapel

Kirstie revealed that the pair surprised their guests with a wedding ceremony at Grosvenor Chapel in London's Mayfair, which features in the film Love Actually as where Keira Knightley and Chiwetel Ejiofor’s characters say ‘I do’. The location of their nuptials also had a special significance for Kirstie, as it was it where a memorial service for her late father, Charles Henry Allsopp, 6th Baron Hindlip, took place following his death last year. "We already had a big party planned to mark Ben’s birthday, so most of our guests thought that’s what they were coming to celebrate, and we did just that, with lots of food, drink, and dancing and all my nephews and nieces running around, having a ball."
