Queen’s cousin

Lord Ivar to star

in Bear Grylls

reality TV show

A

RISTOCRATIC lives

were once marked by

glittering balls, riding

to hounds and tea

with the monarch.

These days it’s a starring appearance

on reality television.

Following in the dainty footsteps of

Viscountess Weymouth, who is compet-

ing on Strictly Come Dancing, a mem-

ber of the Royal Family has signed up to

appear on a Channel 4 reality show.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten has agreed to

take part in Treasure Island with

Bear Grylls.

‘I applied to this show in a moment of

madness and, unbelievably, I got

accepted,’ Lord Ivar says. ‘They cleverly

changed the format this season and

introduced money for us to find, thus

adding to the drama.’

Lord Ivar, 56, is the Queen’s third

cousin once removed and became the

first member of her extended family to

have a same-sex wedding last year.

He is banned from speaking about

the programme until its launch next

week but will say that it was the

‘most incredible experience’.

The programme, which is

narrated by Chief Scout

Grylls, has already

been filmed and

involved participants

being placed on a

remote island as a

test of their survival

skills. They are left

completely alone,

filming them-

selves, and with

only the clothes

they were wear-

ing and some basic tools and

training. Lord Ivar was

educated at Gordonstoun,

the Scottish school described

by fellow pupil Prince Charles

as ‘Colditz in kilts’, so

he should have had no

problems coping.

The son of David Mount-

batten, 3rd Marquess of

Milford Haven, Lord Ivar

married Penelope Thomp-

son and they had three daugh-

ters. However, they divorced

amicably in 2011 and he

revealed five years later that

he was in a relationship with

James Coyle, an airline cabin

services director whom he met

while at a Swiss ski resort.

They were married last year

in a private ceremony on his

Bridwell Park estate in Devon.

Sweetly, his former wife

walked him down the aisle

and ‘gave him away’ at the

suggestion of their children.

Love rat Ewan’s all

smiles filming with

daughter Clara

STAR Wars actor

Ewan McGregor was

described by his

model daughter

Clara as an ‘a*****e’

this year for dump-

ing his wife Eve Mav-

rakis, 53, for a co-star

19 years her junior.

So it’s great to see

them reconciled.

Here’s Clara

smiling on the set of

their latest film

together, The

Birthday Cake, in

New York.

It was a clever

move by Perth-born

Ewan, 48, to sign up

for the role as a

priest in the crime

mob drama as it

just happens to be

directed by 23-year-

old Clara’s boy-

friend, Jimmy

Giannopoulos. Royal first: Lord Ivar, right,

marries James Coyle
