Petra Ecclestone and Sam Palmer are now officially husband and wife after tying-the-knot in a relative low key ceremony - in the case of the usually lavish billionaire heiress.
The 32-year-old Formula 1 heiress – who is the daughter of recently under fire Bernie Ecclestone, 91, who sparked furore when he defended Vladimir Putin from critics – has married 38-year-old businessman Sam.
The pair swapped vows in front of family and friends in a 'small romantic ceremony' in London on Saturday.
Sam confirmed the happy news as he took to social media during the day to share a snap of his hand – proudly showing off the ring on his wedding finger.
He captioned the snap: “Can't believe I'm a married man!” – firmly letting the cat out of the bag about the happy day.
He had earlier taken to Instagram Stories to show off a photo of himself in the back of a car while dressed in a sharp suit and wearing a pair of sunglasses.
Meanwhile other snaps from the day were shared by Sam’s new brother-in-law – Jay Rutland, who is married to Petra’s older sister, Tamara.
He shared a number of snaps of the day – showing Sam, himself and a group of other men all posing around in smart suits.
A photo of the wedding menu was also shared, revealing that guests were offered pomodoro pasta or risotto and sea bass fillet or chicken milanese, before being served ice cream dessert and coffee.
Celebrities were invited to the big day with footballer Cesc Fabregas and his wife Daniella Semaan among the stars joining the celebrations.
Earlier in the day, florists were spotted bringing a number of huge bouquets into the wedding venue as preparations were under way for the celebrations.
The big day was preceded by late night celebrations on Friday as Petra enjoyed her final night as an unmarried woman.
Sister Tamara shared snaps of themselves posing in party dresses as they counted down the hours towards the big day itself.
Tamara wrote on Instagram: “Stayed up past my bed time last night which I would only do to celebrate my best friend and sisters hen.
“Had so much fun celebrating the most beautiful kind hearted bride to be. Roll on the wedding cannot wait.”
It is not the first time Petra has been married, however, as she was previously wedded to James Stunt in 2011, but they divorced in 2017, after welcoming three children together.
Petra and Sam welcomed a daughter in 2020 in the midst of the pandemic and before the couple tied-the-knot.
