Guinness/Goldney engagement

 _.The engagement was announced 6 April, 2021, between Rory Guinness, scion of the Barons Moyne, son of Dr the Hon Finn Benjamin Guinness [born 26 Aug, 1945], of Chute, Wiltshire, and his wife the former Mary Wilson Price, & Charlotte Ann Goldney [born 1989], daughter of Philip Tom Goldney [born 6 March, 1954], of Plymouth, Devon, and his wife the former Mary Jane Ann Charley.

Rory was born during the period when his mother was wife of writer J.P. Donleavy [1926-2017]. The marriage of J.P. Donleavy and Mary Wilson Price ended in divorce in 1989. In 2011, it was reported that Donleavy had not fathered his two children with Price. A DNA test in the early 1990s had confirmed that his daughter Rebecca was in fact the daughter of brewing scion the Hon Kieran Guinness, and Rory was the son of Kieran's older brother the Hon Finn Guinness, whom Price married after her divorce from Donleavy.
