TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp has confirmed she has tied the knot with businessman Ben Andersen.

The Location, Location, Location host, 53, and the property developer have two sons, Oscar Hercules and Bay Atlas, and have been together for decades.

Allsopp wrote on Instagram that it was a “huge privilege listening to your son give a speech at your wedding”, which she said was the reason she is looking so happy in the wedding picture she shared of herself wearing a sparkly dress.

She also thanked “some of the lovely people who worked so hard, at such short notice, to make our wedding pretty special” including an event planner, and The Connaught in Mayfair, London, where she stayed while she got her make-up done, the make-up artist and the Grosvenor Chapel’s Reverend Stephen Coleman.

“To marry in the same church that my parents and grandparents married was always my hope and luckily I already know that we did live happily ever after,” she also said.

The Mayfair chapel is used in Love Actually, to film Keira Knightley’s character’s wedding.

Allsopp is the daughter of businessman and former Christie’s auction house chairman Charles Henry Allsopp, the sixth Baron Hindlip, who died in June 2024.

Her sister is TV presenter Sofie Allsopp and her brother is Henry William Allsopp, who is the seventh Baron Hindlip.

Allsopp has been dubbed “the queen of craft” after making Channel 4 programmes Kirstie’s Handmade Christmas and Kirstie’s Celebrity Craft Masters.

However, she is most well known for presenting Location, Location, Location alongside Phil Spencer for more than 20 years.

The pair also presented Relocation, Relocation.
