Channel24 reports that Lord Ivar Mountbatten, Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, is set to marry his partner, James Coyle, in what will be the first same-sex marriage in British royal family history!
Lord Ivar first revealed his relationship with James in 2016 when he came out. He was previously married to a woman named Penny and has three children with her. The former couple are still friends and Penny is even going to give Ivar away when he marries James.
