Jack Whitehall is set to marry former glamour model Roxy Horner today in a stunning £250,000 wedding at Euridge Manor in the Cotswolds, Wiltshire—described as the “hottest ticket in showbizland.” The venue, known for its picturesque orangery, boating lake, and wisteria-draped pergola, promises to be the perfect backdrop for a ceremony that is sure to be full of “fizz and frolics.”
Celebrity Guests & Pre-Wedding Antics 🍾
Among the famous guests attending are James Corden and his wife Julia Carey, and footballer Jamie Redknapp and his wife Frida. The groom himself, Whitehall, has been the subject of much anticipation, and while known for his quick wit and humor, sources say he is “super nervous” about his wedding day—a rare admission for the usually confident comedian.
Whitehall, known for hosting some of the biggest events in showbiz, including Saturday Night Live, has expressed how daunting it is to stand up and give his groom’s speech. “This is so much more tense than hosting the BRITs,” a friend shared. “He loves Roxy so much and is excited, but standing up there in front of everyone is a huge moment.”
The Bride’s Stunning Preparations 👰
Roxy, 34, has spent the week preparing for her big day. Friends say she’s determined to make everything perfect, including her two wedding dresses—one for the ceremony and the other for the after-party. Recently spotted at Galia Lahav in Mayfair for her final dress fittings, Roxy looked radiant in a strapless white gown that cinched at the waist and flared into a princess skirt, as well as a corseted semi-sheer bodice design. It’s clear Roxy has been living her “fairytale” dream.
In a humorous and relatable moment ahead of the wedding, Roxy shared on Instagram that she had even gone so far as to shave her big toes, a detail only she would notice. “Now I’m going to have cuts that hurt, and no one will notice,” she laughed.
Hen Do Highlights 🍸
Roxy’s hen do was nothing short of extravagant. She had several pre-wedding celebrations, with her latest bash in London including karaoke, a private dinner, and a dance lesson from former Strictly pro Luba Mushtuk. The group also attended a Magic Mike show at the Hippodrome Casino, where Roxy was treated to a lap dance by a stripper.
Opposites Attract 💖
Roxy and Jack’s relationship has blossomed since they met in Australia and formalized their relationship in 2020. Despite their seemingly different backgrounds—Jack’s privileged education at Dragon School in Oxford and Marlborough College versus Roxy’s upbringing in Essex—they’ve made it work. Jack recently joked on The Jonathan Ross Show that their wedding was a perfect blend of Downton Abbey and EastEnders, saying, “My family are gilet-wearing chinless toffs, and her family are proper Cockney, all West Ham fans, proper salt of the earth.”
The couple, who welcomed their first child, Elsie, in 2023, announced their engagement in December 2024. The proposal video, complete with Roxy’s stunning diamond engagement ring, was shared on Instagram, setting the stage for this much-anticipated celebration of love.
The Venue & Drama Behind the Scenes 🏰
Euridge Manor, which dates back to the 17th century, has seen some drama itself, having been at the center of a planning dispute between its owner, fashion mogul John Robinson, and local residents over noise from weddings. Fortunately, after negotiations, the venue was granted permission to host events in 2025.
Jack’s mother, Hilary, was involved in some family drama of her own regarding wedding details, as Jack had mistakenly given her the wrong dress code for the event. She was less than pleased but was later reassured by her son with an apology.
As the wedding day arrives, all eyes will be on the couple and their glamorous celebration. Fans and celebrities alike are eager to see if Whitehall can keep his nerves in check and whether the ceremony will be as much of a showstopper as their love story.
