Columnist Dolly Alderton Marries in Secret Ceremony

Dolly Alderton, a prominent dating columnist and author, known for her candid reflections on relationships, has married in secret. She exchanged vows last month with hedge fund executive Jeremy 'Jez' Lawson.

The private ceremony took place at Islington town hall in north London, attended by a small group of guests.

Alderton, 38, reportedly wore an elegant white suit and a wide-brimmed hat. Among the guests were novelist Elizabeth Day and actress Emma Corrin, who previously starred as Princess Diana in the Netflix drama 'The Crown' and will appear in an upcoming adaptation of 'Pride and Prejudice' for which Alderton wrote the script.

Photographs were reportedly discouraged at the low-key nuptials. The bride is said to have delivered a 'hilarious and heartfelt' speech.

This contrasts with Lawson's first marriage in 2017, a three-day celebration in Phuket, Thailand. His best man at that wedding was Archie Keswick, a scion of the Jardine Matheson dynasty.

The couple honeymooned on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, a trip Alderton described as 'the most truly decadent and magical few days that I will never forget.'
