Reform UK’s deputy leader Richard Tice weds partner Isabel Oakeshott in ‘special’ ceremony

On social media, Ms Oakeshott – international Editor for TalkTV and former GB News presenter – described her wedding day as “so special”.

“Thank you Nigel Farage for introducing us ten years ago,” she added.

Following the ceremony, the pair had gathering with 70 friends and family members at the top of the Shard, with English still and sparkling wines on offer.

The newlyweds have six children between them from previous marriages.

The Chapel of St Mary Undercroft is situated in Westminster Hall, with the venue often used by MPs and peers for weddings.

Mr Tice proposed to his now-wife at the Royal Oak pub in Ramsden, Oxfordshire on Boxing Day.

Speaking about that special moment, Ms Oakeshott told the Daily Mail: “He appeared to be rooted to the bar stool, with his hand gripping his glass of mulled wine.

“He also asked for a 14-day cooling-off period, which I rejected.

“Politicians, eh? There’s always some small print.”

Since last year, the couple have split their time between Mr Tice’s constituency in Lincolnshire and Dubai.

Ms Oakeshott revealed she moved to the Gulf state to dodge Labour’s VAT raid on private school fees.

She said “We make it work. I’ll move back ahead of the next general election.”

Warm messages have poured in for the newly weds on social media.

Reform UK chairman Lee Anderson described the marriage as “great news”, adding: “Congratulations.”

Durham County Council deputy leader Darren Grimes added: “Absolutely delighted for my friends Ticey and Isabel on their marriage yesterday – many warm wishes to them.”

The party’s Treasury spokesman, Robert Jenrick, also offered his congratulations to the happy couple, alongside the party’s justice spokesman Sarah Pochin.

Mr Tice and Ms Oakeshott first met through their work on the Leave.EU campaign in 2016, before starting their romantic relationship in 2018.
