The Marquess of Granby and Claira Miesegaes: some background

For several years one of Britain's most eligible bachelors. the Marquess of Granby, has been seen out and about in the company of the lovely Claira Miesegaes.

Having just spent a day at Belvoir Castle I came home to investigate further the lineage and background of the lady who might become the next Duchess of Rutland.

Granby and Claira.

Charles John Montague Manners, styled Marquess of Granby was born 3 July, 1999, the fourth child and first-born son of the 11th Duke of Rutland (born 8 May, 1959), of Belvoir Castle, near Grantham, and the Duchess of Rutland (the former Rachel Emma Louise Watkins, born 2 September, 1963).

Charles is heir to his father, and to Belvoir Castle, near Grantham, and and impressive array of peerages: the Barony of Roos of Belvoir, co. Leicester [U.K., 1896]; the Marquess of Granby, co. Nottingham [E., 1703]; the 19th Earl of Rutland [E., 1525]; the 11th Duke of Rutland [E., 1703];  & the Baron Manners of Haddon [E., 1679]. 

Charles has a younger brother, Lord Hugo Manners (born 24 July, 2003), and three older sisters, the high profile Manners girls, Lady Violet (born 1993), Lady Alice (born 1995), and Lady Eliza (born 1997). Lady Violet, the eldest sister, married in 2025, Viscount Garnock, son and heir of the Earl of Lindsay.

Claira Emma Miesegaes (born in London in 1996),  is a partnership manager at the Jockey Club has an impeccable family history. The snob in me was hoping to find a coronet in her family tree. Sadly, none have been found as yet, but I can state that the beautiful Miss Miesegaes is descended from several landed gentry families and more importantly, is a great-niece of the great Betty Kenward, MBE (1906-2001), the magazine columnist famed as the editor of 'Jennifer's Diary', originally in Tatler and subsequently in Queen magazine.

Betty Kenward's obituary in The Daily Telegraph described her as "insufferably snobbish and crotchety", recounting her ferocious treatment of her assistants (many of whom resigned in tears), her propensity for long-running feuds (including, particularly, with Margaret, Duchess of Argyll), and her persistent snubbing of Tatler's social editor, Peter Townend. What would she think of her great-niece now associating with Margaret, Duchess of Argyll's great-grandson?

Claira Miesegaes (pronounced 'Meezygas') is the daughter of Simon James Victor Miesegaes (born 1964), former High Sheriff of Warwickshire, and his wife the former Lucinda Claire Bourdillon (born 1968). 

Claira has a brother James (born 2001), and a sister, Harriet (born in 1998).

Through her mother's family Claira is descended from the landed gentry families of Kemp-Welch, Hunter, Stormonth Darling, and Macdonald of Vallay. 

Claira is also descended from Henry Holland (1745-1806), the great architect to the nobility.

North Yorkshire wedding for Lady Marina Windsor and Nico Macauley

 The marriage will take place on Saturday 20 June, 2026, at All Saints' Church, Hovingham, North Yorkshire, between Mr Nico Macauley and the Lady Marina Windsor, granddaughter of The Duke of Kent, and the late Duchess of Kent.

The wedding breakfast took place at Hovingham Hall, seat of the Worsley baronets, and birthplace of Lady Marina's late grandmother, the Duchess of Kent.

Lady Marina's grandmother, the then Katharine Worsley married at York Minster, 8 June, 1961, HRH The Duke of Kent, cousin of Queen Elizabeth II. The wedding breakfast, following the first royal wedding in Yorkshire since the Middle Ages, took place at Hovingham Hall, with the late Queen attending along with many members of the Royal Family, and members of European royal families.

Nico Julian Macauley (born 6 April, 1993), is the elder son of the late William Francis Macauley (born 30 Sept, 1953), and his wife the former Nicola Jane Thompson. 

Nico's mother, Mrs Nicola Macauley, lives in the village of Stonegrave, just two miles from Hovingham Hall. The hall, a Palladian-style country house has been the seat of the Worsley family for 450 years, and is currently the home of Lady Marina's cousin, Sir William Worsley, 6th Baronet.

Nico's father died 16 June, 2019, aged 65. He was a grandson of the newspaper magnate, William Berry, 1st Viscount Camrose (1879-1954).

Nico was educated at the top Catholic school Ampleforth College, just seven miles from Hovingham and then at Newcastle University.

Nico's grandfather, William Perine Macauley (who died in 1990), of Ballward House, County Wicklow, married 7 April, 1948, the Hon Diana Phyllis Berry (1924-94), fourth daughter of the 1st Viscount Camrose. 

It is not known when Lady Marina and Nico started dating though the socialite cousin of the King was first linked to the cyber security account executive in 2023, when she posted a selfie with Nico to mark his 30th birthday. Lady Marina recently as shared images on Instagram featuring Nico in a loving embrace at last year’s Glastonbury festival.

The 1st Viscount Camrose started his working life as a journalist and established his own paper, Advertising World, in 1901. Berry made his fortune with the publication of the First World War magazine The War Illustrated, which at its peak had a circulation of 750,000. In partnership with his younger brother, Gomer Berry, 1st Viscount Kemsley (the elder brother was Seymour Berry, 1st Baron Buckland), he purchased The Sunday Times in 1915 and was its editor-in-chief until 1937. In 1919 the pair also purchased the Financial Times.

In 1924 the Berry brothers and Sir Edward Iliffe set up Allied Newspapers and purchased the Daily Dispatch, the Manchester Evening Chronicle, the Sunday Chronicle, the Sunday News, and the Sunday Graphic, as well as a string of other newspapers across the country. In Cardiff they merged four newspapers into the Western Mail. In 1927 they purchased The Daily Telegraph from the 2nd Harry Levy-Lawson, 1st Viscount Burnham, with William Berry becoming its editor-in-chief. In 1937 they purchased its rival, The Morning Post.

In 1926, the Berry brothers/Allied Newspapers purchased Amalgamated Press (AP), which had been started by Alfred Harmsworth, 1st Viscount Northcliffe, in 1901 (Harmsworth had died in 1922).

Berry bought out his partners in 1937 and amalgamated The Morning Post with The Daily Telegraph, with himself as chairman and editor-in-chief. His sons Seymour, the 2nd Viscount, and subsequently Michael, continued to run the newspaper until 1986; in addition, Seymour was Vice Chairman of Amalgamated Press from 1942 to 1959 (when AP was acquired by the Mirror Group).

Camrose provided financial assistance to Sir Winston Churchill after the Second World War. He and ten other wealthy well-wishers each donated £5,000 to the Churchills, allowing them to keep their home, Chartwell, on the condition that it would be presented to the nation upon their deaths.

One of Nico's great-aunts, Sheila, Countess of Birkenhead (nee Berry) (1913-92), was a lady-in-waiting to Lady Marina's great-grandmother and namesake, Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent from 1949 to 1953. Another of Nico's great-aunts was Shelagh (nee Macauley), Countess of Lisburne (who died in 2016), wife of the 8th Earl of Lisburne, a television executive. Nico's father was a first cousin of Lady Juliet Townsend, DCVO, a Lady-in-Waiting to Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon from 1971 to 2002.

Nico's cousin, Valerie McNair-Scott was wife of the 8th Earl of Longford. She died 22 January, 2023. Another cousin is the actor Joshua Sasse (born 9 December, 1987).

Lady Marina Charlotte Alexandra Katharine Helen Windsor (born 30 September, 1992), is a great-great granddaughter of King George V and a second cousin once removed of King Charles III. She is the second child, and eldest daughter of the Earl and Countess of St Andrews. Her father is the elder son and heir of HRH The Duke of Kent, who is a first cousin of Queen Elizabeth II.

Lady Marina’s only brother is Edward, styled Baron Downpatrick, who will one day succeed to the dukedom of Kent. Marina’s sister, Lady Amelia, is a mannequin. Both Edward and Amelia are single. 

Nico's parents married in Westminster, 5 February, 1992. They have a younger son, Alexander Ronnie Macauley born in 1995.
