The queen’s cousin who made history with royal family’s first ever gay wedding claims the firm ‘don’t discuss’ his marriage

THE Queen’s cousin who made it into the history books by marrying a man in the royal family’s first gay wedding has revealed that his relatives ‚don’t discuss‘ his relationship.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, 56, married Glaswegian flight attendant James Coyle, 57, last year in a ceremony which the couple described as the ‚perfect day‘.

The happy couple were married at a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s private estate in Uffculme, Devon, with Ivar given away by his ex-wife and friend Lady Penny Mountbatten.

Alongside daughters Ella, 23, Alexandra, 21, and Louise, 16 – whom the Lord shares with his ex-wife – the ceremony was attended by other family and friends.

Now preparing to celebrate their first wedding anniversary in September, the Queen’s third cousin once removed has revealed details of his relationship to Tatler.

Speaking with the magazine, he admitted he didn’t know how his decision to become the first member of the royal family to come out as gay was received by the Queen.

"They really don’t talk about it, the royals – they don’t communicate very well," he explained in the tell-all interview, admitting that the silence was made up for by his ex-wife and daughters total support.

"I think [my children] like having another man in the house," he continued. "It’s better than a stepmother who could have turned out to be a step-monster."

Lord Ivar admits to knowing he was gay from a young age, and told his wife Lady Penny before they got hitched that he felt he was bisexual.

But after 16 years of marriage, the pair divorced – and eight years later Lord Ivar, whose father David was first cousin to Prince Philip, came out as gay in 2016.

He revealed that throughout his marriage to Lady Penny he had struggled with his sexuality, and now despite their separation, that she was supportive of his decision to marry James.

In an interview with the Daily Mail last year, Penny explained: "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. Now it’s ‚out‘, he’s a completely different person. Keeping his sexuality a secret was tormenting him."

Lord Ivar added: "I could never tell my parents I was gay as when I grew up, gay men were everything derogatory under the sun.

"In 20 years time people will struggle to understand how we came to have such conversations as they’ll look back and say, ‚What’s the big deal?‘ But for our generation, it was a big deal."

Lord Ivar Mountbatten ist Cousin dritten Grades von Queen Elizabeth II. und damit kein Mitglied der engeren Königsfamilie. Trotzdem darf man durchaus von einer „Gay Royal Wedding“ sprechen, wenn der 55-Jährige im Sommer seinen Langzeitfreund James Coyle heiratet.

In der Daily Mail wird Mountbatten mit der Aussage zitiert, man plane eine „sehr moderne Hochzeit“. Auch habe es keine Verlobung im klassischen Sinne gegeben, sondern eher ein gegenseitiges Bekenntnis großer Liebe. Die entspannte Haltung resultiert auch aus der Tatsache, dass Mountbatten schon mal verheiratet war. Mit Penelope Anne Vere Thompson, mit der er drei Töchter hat. Das Paar wurde 2011 nach 17 Ehejahren geschieden, 2016 wurde die Beziehung zu James Coyle bekannt. Seine Ex-Frau unterstützt das schwule Leben ihres Ex-Mannes ausdrücklich und äußerte anlässlich der Verlobung, dass Ivar seit seinem Coming-out ein freundlicherer und lockerer Mensch geworden sei.

So the big news today is that we are now officially engaged! 😳 As usual James has gone overboard with his purchases. You’re not a Lord yet Jimmy! #champagnecelebration #dontdrinkitall #engaged #fuckhowmuchdidthatcost

Queen elizabeth’s cousin will become the first royal in history to have a gay wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic wedding. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a same-sex marriage. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

"It was the girls‘ idea," she explained in an interview with the . ‚It makes me feel quite emotional. "I’m really very touched."

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew going into her marriage with Lord Ivar that he identified as bisexual.

"What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

"Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us," Lord Ivar explained. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

The first ever gay royal wedding has been announced

The first member of the Royal Family to come out as gay is set to marry.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten opened up about his sexuality in 2016 after a decades-long struggle.

Later this summer, the Royal – who is cousin to the Queen and the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma – will wed his long-term partner James Coyle, who was by his side when he revealed he was gay.

The news comes just weeks after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot at Windsor Castle, with the couple making their support for LGBT rights clear in the build-up to the wedding by meeting with young LGBT activists from across the Commonwealth.

The Lord, who is the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria, will wed Coyle at a private chapel in Devon in front of the couple’s close friends and family, including Mountbatten’s three daughters from his previous marriage, Ella, Alix and Luli.

Speaking to the MailOnline, Mountbatten said he had encountered no backlash at all over the planned union – including from his extended family.

“All my good friends have accepted James,” he revealed. “I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

The 55-year-old Royal said he still wasn’t entirely comfortable with his sexuality.

“Being completely truthful, it doesn’t sit comfortably with me that I’m going out with a man,” he said.

“I’ve lived my whole life as a heterosexual. So, all of a sudden, having a bloke around is unusual — even now.

“It’s brilliant but I suppose in an ideal world I would prefer to have a wife because that has always been the norm.”

But, he added, he had accepted that he was born that way.

“We were talking with friends in Bermuda about this nature-nurture business not so long ago,” said Mountbatten.

“I knew from the age of eight I was more attracted to men. I definitely think it’s in the genes. You’re either gay or you’re not.’

He said that the wedding was his idea, revealing: “I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married.

“For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.

“James hasn’t had the stable life I have,” he continued, before turning to his partner, an airline cabin services director, and telling him: “I want to be able to give you that.”

Coyle said: “It’s a very modern marriage. There was no proposal, just an acceptance of this great love. He cares. I care. The girls are very accepting.

“Three years ago they were saying: ‘Wow. Are you guys going to get married?’

“We said: ‘Don’t be ridiculous. It’s absolutely not on the radar at all.’ But gradually it has become something that makes sense.

Queen elizabeth’s cousin will celebrate the first same-sex royal wedding

It began with the marriage of Prince Harry to Meghan Markle, a divorced, American, bi-racial actress. Now, the royals will celebrate the first same-sex marriage to happen in their family.

This summer, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s cousin, will marry his partner James Coyle in an intimate ceremony at his country estate in Devon. The two have been together since meeting at a Swiss ski resort in 2015.

Mountbatten, who was married to his ex-wife Penny for 16 years, officially came out in 2016, after the couple had already divorced. They have three daughters: Ella, 22; Alix, 20; and Luli, 15.

In a thoroughly modern twist, Mountbatten will be walked down the aisle by his ex-wife.

“It was the girls’ idea,” Penny said. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

The ceremony itself will be very small, and will include his daughters, close family and friends. Afterwards, the couple will welcome 120 guests for a reception. But it’s unclear which, if any, of the first-line royals will be in attendance.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said of Prince Edward, the Queen’s third son and Mountbatten’s lifelong friend. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

He noted, however, that their impending union has the blessing of the entire extended Royal Family.

Most importantly, he has the blessing of his daughters — who asked almost immediately upon meeting James if they would get married — and Penny.

“I married Ivar with a completely open heart and an open mind about sexuality. Ivar had told me he was bisexual before he proposed,” she said. “I didn’t have any fears about it because I loved him.”

Despite divorcing eight years ago, they remain close and Penny is helping with the wedding arrangements.

Although his guest list will be nowhere near as star-studded as that of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, he also won’t be beholden to the same wedding rules and expectations. For one thing, they don’t plan on following tradition with a formal wedding cake topped with two male figurines decked out in tuxedos.

“We’ll probably have cheese instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

He disclosed that growing up in Glasgow knowing he was gay was difficult, especially since his father was a strict Catholic. But since he’s come out and gone public with his relationship with James, Penny said he’s a changed man.

“Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him,” she said. “Now it’s ‘out,’ he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The royal family just announced its first gay royal wedding — and it signals a huge shift for the monarchy

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer, marking the first same-sex wedding in the extended royal family. 

This is not Mountbatten’s first marriage, however.  He and his ex-wife Penny were married for 16 years and have three daughters. On their wedding day, she wore an heirloom tiara and the celebrations were attended by Princess Margaret and Prince Edward. Then, eight years ago, he confessed to struggling with his sexuality throughout their marriage and the couple divorced.

This summer, his ex-wife will walk him down the aisle and give him away at the altar.

The queen’s cousin will be the first member of the royal family to have a gay wedding

2018 appears to be a year of important marries Jack Brooksbank on October 12, another member of the royal family will tie the knot, and make history in the process.

The Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is due to become the first person in the extended royal family to enter into a same-sex marriage. Lord Ivar is set to marry his longterm partner, James Coyle, and will be given away by his ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters.

Speaking to the about the forthcoming nuptials, Lord Ivar revealed,

The wedding is due to take place later this summer in the private chapel on Lord Ivar’s country estate in Devon.

Daily Mail that all three of his daughters are excited about the upcoming wedding. He said:

The first royal gay wedding is happening, and here’s what you need to knowabout it

Just when you thought the excitement about the royal wedding was over comes more exciting wedding news out of the British monarchy: The first gay royal wedding is set for later this summer.

Queen Elizabeth’s third cousin (once removed), Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will marry James Coyle in a private chapel on his estate in Devon, England, according to the Daily Mail. The 55-year-old royal came out two years ago — but his former wife, Penny, and their three children are thrilled with the news.

“Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder,” Penny told the newspaper of her former husband. They were married for 16 years and had three daughters: Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‘out’ he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Lord Mountbatten met his future husband at a Swiss ski resort — and everyone is happy with his choice, he said.

“All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing,” Mountbatten said. “Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him’.”

You can see what James Coyle and Lord Ivar Mountbatten look like together here — and we have to agree that they make a handsome couple.

Let britain’s first royal gay wedding be an example to all the straight brides and grooms out there

Rich white men aren’t usually cited these days as pioneers of social progress. Unless of course, those rich white men happen to be lovers engaged to marry in Britain’s first ever same sex royal wedding.

Yes, we are due for another noble nuptial, this one momentous not because the bride is — oh my God — a biracial actress, but because there will be no bride to speak of. This week we received historic news that 55-year-old Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a third cousin once removed to the Queen of England and a great, great, great grandson of Queen Victoria, is engaged to marry his partner, James Coyle.

The gay lord came out of the closet in 2016. A father of three daughters, Mountbatten was previously married to a woman, Lady Penny Mountbatten. However, despite his leaving Penny to live openly as a gay man, the former couple remains on very good terms. In fact, what appears to have shocked Her Majesty’s subjects far more than the prospect of Britain’s first gay royal wedding is one exceptionally unconventional detail about that wedding.

Lord Mountbatten and Penny are on such good terms, it appears, that Penny has agreed to walk her ex-husband down the aisle at his wedding ceremony and give him away to Coyle. “It makes me feel quite emotional,” Penny told the Daily Mail this month about the role, one suggested originally by her daughters. “I’m really very touched,” she said. Needless to say, the Daily Mail is less so.

In the words of Daily Mail writer Rebecca Hardy, “Penny is the sort of attractive, sparky woman that most red-blooded males would be falling over themselves to whisk up the aisle. Isn’t it, well, a little odd to be handing over the husband she once loved with all her heart to another man?”

The answer is of course it is a little odd. It’s extremely odd. But so are most gay weddings. That’s what makes them special and, dare I say it, often a little more fun than heterosexual ones.

Unless the betrothed in question are hipsters, goths or otherwise inclined to tick off their parents, the truth is that straight, Western weddings tend to follow a predictable script. A dad walks his daughter down the aisle (or in Meghan Markle’s case, a father-in-law). The bride wears virginal white and her bridesmaids, a group of women who vary drastically in shape and skin tone, wear the exact same mauve gown they detest with every fibre of their being (meanwhile their counterparts, the groomsmen, appear absolutely thrilled to flash their matching dress socks to the cameras every chance they get).

For dinner, there’s a piece of dry chicken breast, followed by a first dance to a song by Etta James or Ed Sheeran. There’s also occasionally a bizarre bit that precedes the wedding where the hopeful groom, an adult man, asks his future father-in-law permission to marry his girlfriend, an adult woman, even though both of them are technically allowed to do whatever they want with their lives.

The nice thing about getting gay-married is that few guests and family expect a traditional wedding because the couple involved is already an affront to tradition. As a result, gay couples are sometimes exempt from the matrimonial customs many of their straight counterparts might actually like to do away with but don’t have the energy to oppose due to family pressure.

Perhaps Britain’s first gay royal wedding will help some of these cloistered straight couples turn tradition on its head, because royal weddings have a tendency to start massive long-lasting trends. Kate Middleton’s wedding dress, now nearly a decade old, is still glorified on reality TV shows dedicated to finding the perfect wedding gown. Perhaps Lord Mountbatten’s upcoming ceremony will start a trend toward the unconventional and low key.

After all, his partner, Coyle, told the Daily Mail that he and the Lord will not be cutting a cake nor will they dance a first dance.

“We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small,” he told the publication. “It’s just for the girls and close family and friends. Everyone else — about 120 friends — will arrive for the party afterwards. We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?’

What will there be, according to Lord Mountbatten?

Less carbs. People will like that. It might be nice though if the happy couple decided to go through with one tired wedding tradition: the bouquet toss. Penny could catch a break.

What would happen if the royal wedding were gay

Most of us have daydreamed about marrying a royal. I certainly have, if for no other reason than to get that much closer to Claire Foy from The Crown, now available on Netflix*.* The immense wealth and privilege wouldn’t suck, but I have my priorities. In any case, American actress Meghan Markle gets to live out that dream for real — she will be wed to Prince Harry today, thus becoming a member of the British Royal Family.

The winds of progress are at Markle’s back. She will be the first Black woman to marry into the family, and she has decided to make a feminist statement by walking down the aisle at St. George’s Chapel solo. It might not sound groundbreaking, but this is the crown we’re talking about, an ancient institution that has clung to tradition over the centuries. They’re not ones to shake things up. Remember when they decided divorce was OK? There was a whole war. Feelings were hurt. It was quite the mess.

Being a nerd for British royal history, and wanting to keep my goals at least somewhat realistic, I asked the question — What would a gay royal wedding look like? Luckily, someone had answers for me. Ralph Wedgwood, a British philosophy professor at USC who has written articles on same-sex marriage and keeps up with marriage laws in the U.K., has precise knowledge of the crown’s bureaucracy. I took a break from curating my royal nuptial moodboard to ask him over the phone how a hypothetical gay monarchical wedding might work.

There has been some discussion in the UK about changing the rules of applying titles to same-sex marriages. But nothing has yet really been done. Currently, if a lord marries a woman, the woman gets to be called lady. If Lord Smith marries Miss Jones, Miss Jones may then call herself Lady Smith if she wishes. A duke marries a woman, she can call herself a duchess. But there has actually been no legislation passed changing the rules applying to titles.

That’s the aristocracy, but the rules applying to the royal family are slightly different. They actually changed the rule of succession. Now, the eldest child inherits the crown regardless of whether they are a man or a woman. It used to be that brothers, princes took precedent. So eventually, presumably, some members of the royal family will marry a member of the same sex and the issue will have to be conducted.

I don’t think so. In a way, this kind of issue has been considered before. When Queen Elizabeth II got married, nobody said the king got married. She’s the queen. It’s happened exactly once that a queen was married and her husband became king. Generally they didn’t like the idea that someone who’s not a member of the British royal family becoming king. An outsider could become queen, but an outsider couldn’t become king. When Victoria was married, her husband was just called Prince Albert.

It would be hugely controversial because of the church. Currently, to be honest, it would create a constitutional crisis. The monarch — the king of the queen — is the head of the church. They have to uphold the church. The Church of England tries to be the head of the worldwide Anglican and Episcopal tradition. They don’t want to get out of step, for example, with churches in Africa, where there are many issues around homosexuality. The church has been very reluctant to marry same-sex couples, and so I think it would be a kind of constitutional crisis. I hope the church will come around.

That’s right. The rules of succession are limited to biological children. There would be nothing preventing the royal family from adopting someone. They could be made a count or some other title. This is true of all titles of the aristocracy. They’re only inherited by biological children. The one thing one needs to produce to inherit a title is a birth certificate.

I don’t know about that, actually. As long as it’s their child, biologically speaking. In a way the monarchy is a primitive institution and it reflects a primitive idea about blood and bloodline and royal blood. From a biological point of view, it’s ludicrous. Every human being on the planet is descended from some king or queen. We’re all related.

Well, there have been plenty of gay kings and possibly gay queens as well in the history of monarchy. An example is the German king Frederick the Great, who we’re pretty certain was gay. He married a woman, and the poor woman got one visit a year from him and was told to live in the castle. Once his brother had kids, he said, ‚OK, I have heirs, my kingdom will be inherited by my nephews when I’m gone.‘ So the heir wouldn’t have to be a child.

I suspect the rules will be changed actually. It’s going to happen with the titles and nobility first. An arrangement will be made there for same-sex couples. Myself, I think the royal family is an archaic institution and we’d be better off with elected heads of state, perhaps like the Irish system where there is a head of state and head of government.

However, it’s quite hard to get rid of monarchies, even in liberal countries like the Netherlands and Sweden and so on. They keep them because it’s a major change and people don’t like change. The royal family will be around for a long time. I hope that eventually people will be so used to gay people and same-sex marriages that the change will happen. But it might take a while.

The british royal family’s first ever gay wedding is taking place this summer

This summer, the British royal family is gearing up for an historic wedding between Lord Ivar Mountbatten, who is Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, and James Coyle, which will be the first ever gay marriage to include a member of the monarchy. Here’s all we know so far.

2018 is the year for British royal weddings. After Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding on May 19 and before Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s October nuptials, another ceremony has been announced for the summer. Lord Ivar Mountbatten, who is Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, is set to marry his partner James Coyle, making the wedding the first gay wedding in the history of the British monarchy. Previously married for 16 years to Penelope Thompson, with whom he had three daughters, he came out in 2016 and his ex-wife will be the one to walk him to the altar in his big day. The exact date has not yet been revealed, but this wedding will go down in history in a private chapel at Lord Ivar Mountbatten’s property in Devon.

Queen elizabeth’s cousin ivar will marry his partner in first gay royal wedding

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, cousin to Queen Elizabeth, will wed James Coyle at a private chapel on his country estate in Devon this summer, marking the royal family’s first-ever gay marriage.

Ivar, who came out in 2016, years after he and his ex-wife Penny divorced, told the Daily Mail that while he didn’t feel like he needed to get married “because I’ve been there, done that, and have my wonderful children,” he said he “really wanted to do it for James.”

“James hasn’t had the stable life I have,” he continued. Turning to his husband-to-be, he added, “I want to be able to give you that.”

While describing their engagement, James told the publication “it’s a very modern marriage,” explaining that “there was no proposal, just an acceptance of this great love.”

In fact, in an extra-special modern twist, Penny will be the one to give her her ex-husband away — an idea she says their three daughters — Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — came up with.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said, adding that while her role in the wedding might strike some as odd, she and James “have got on from the first 10 seconds of meeting each other.”

“Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder,” she shared with the Daily Mail. “He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‘out,’ he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

James also remarked that unlike a more traditional royal wedding, “the ceremony itself will be very small. It’s really just for the girls and close family and friends.”

“We went to a wedding a couple of weeks ago and said, ‘We’re not doing that. We’re not cutting cakes. We’re not having a first dance,’” he continued.

While the pair will be inviting “about 120 friends” to the “party afterwards” — where they’ll have plenty of “lovely food and really good music” — James insisted that “there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that.”

Agreeing, Ivar added, “We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

Ivar also told the Daily Mail that while his relative and close friend Prince Edward, who is the Queen’s third son, won’t be able to come to the wedding, both he and his wife Sophie “adore James.”

“All my good friends have accepted James,” he added. “I basically told everyone, ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said, ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Opening up about his past, Ivar told the outlet that while he was honest about his sexuality with his wife before they were married, he said that growing up, “I could never tell my parents I was gay.”

“Where I grew up, gay men were called poofs, queers, everything derogatory under the sun,” he told the Daily Mail, adding that even now “having a bloke around is unusual.”

Continuing, he said, “I never thought this would happen. It’s brilliant, but I never thought I’d marry a man.”

Ivar’s happy news comes almost one month after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle walked down the aisle in their own historic royal wedding at Windsor Castle.

Ivar mountbatten got married in britain’s first royal gay wedding

The world has now experienced Britain’s first same-sex royal wedding.

Back in June, we shared with you the news that a British royal family member would be getting married to his male partner.

While Lord Ivar Mountbatten isn’t a member of the immediate family, he is a close cousin of Queen Elizabeth II and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma.

Ivar Mountbatten came out as bisexual in 2016 and also announced that he had been in a secret relationship with a man named James Coyle.

The two had apparently met in 2014 at an upmarket Swiss alpine resort in Verbier, according to the Deccan Chronicle. Four years into their relationship, Mountbatten and Coyle are happily married.

The two were married at a private wedding with 60 family members and friends, including Mountbatten’s three daughters and former wife, happily attending. In fact, Mountbatten’s ex-wife, named Penny, gave him away at the ceremony.

Now, Mountbatten and Coyle will be heading off to either Greece or Croatia for their honeymoon. The destination hasn’t been decided yet, and will be completed later this year.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Sep 24, 2018 at 4:01am PDT

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing.

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

[quote]Since the assassination of Mountbatten in an IRA bomb attack 40 years ago, rumours have swirled about his sexuality, fuelled by his comment: “ a and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

[quote]The FBI files cover more than three decades. The first is dated February 1944, soon after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, when interviewed about another matter, had mentioned being an intimate of Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary and their ladies-in-waiting.

[quote]“She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.”

[quote]In April 1957 the FBI produced a memo on allegations of an affair between Paul Robeson, the singer, and a, who had several liaisons with black men. She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

Lord Mountbatten is a father to three children with ex-wife Penelope (Penny) Thompson.

In an official statement, he said that he has struggled with his sexuality all along.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

Posted by liamfoley63 in Kingdom of EuropeRoyal MistressRoyal SuccessionRoyal Titles

1st Earl Mountbatten of BurmaAssassinationFirst Sea LordIrish Republican ArmyLady BarbourneLord Louis MountbattenPrince Louis of BattenbergSuez Crisis of 1956Viceroy of IndiaYola Letellier

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

Danielle Garrand is a social media producer and trending reporter for CBS News.

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Grundsätzlich: worauf sollte bei der suche nach einer „perfekten datingseite“ geachtet werden?

Auch wenn es sich auf den ersten Blick ein wenig unromantisch anhören mag: wer sich auf der Suche nach Liebe, Sex oder einem Abenteuer im Internet befindet, sollte immer auf die Seriosität der entsprechenden Seiten achten.

Ist diese gewährleistet, gilt es, sich mit weiteren Details, wie zum Beispiel:

Auseinanderzusetzen. Schnell wird hier klar, dass es schwerfällt, hier von einer „besten Seite“ zu sprechen. Vielmehr ist es wichtig, dass Seiten wie GayRoyal, bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com zum eigenen Geschmack und den persönlichen Erwartungen passen.

Oft hilft es auch, die Angebote einfach auszuprobieren und sich dann zu entscheiden.

Gayroyal sign up:

Okay, it’s time to look at how to sign up for GayRoyal. The process to join as a registered user is super simple and fast. Because this site focuses on hookups and casual sex, the amount of info you need to get started is pretty minimal. To register shouldn’t take you more than 5-10 minutes. You’ll start by going to the GayRoyal sign in page. First, select your gender identity and the gender identity or identities of the people you’re hoping to meet. Next, you’ll be asked to share your email address and to pick a unique password to use on the site. You can also choose your GayRoyal username at this point. Of course, there’s a lot to say about how to pick the best username for a hookup site. But we’ve distilled it all into this suggestion. Capture tone and attitude by choosing descriptive words that let other members get to know who you are and what you’re all about.Finally, you’ll need to let the site know where you’re located and what your birthday is. And that’s it! That was literally the entire registration process right there. Now that you have your GayRoyal login, you can sign in and start connecting with local hotties now.

Gayroyal chat:

Okay, your new account is registered and ready to go…and so are you. It’s time to start chatting with some hotties. Most dating sites have a chat feature that lets you get to know the site’s members on a more personal level. But the most modern hookup sites have features like voice and video chat, so you can get to know potential partners a little more intimately. Found someone you want to connect with? Just send out a couple GayRoyal messages to the members you’re most interested in. If you want to see who’s online and ready to chat, it’s super easy to find out. Just use the GayRoyal search feature to scroll through a list of members who match your criteria. Once you find the people you want to connect with, it’s super easy to reach out and start a conversation.

Gayroyal profiles:

So now it’s time to get your profile ready for some action. Start by navigating to the GayRoyal log in page and sign in to your account. We know that this site is all about hookups and casual sex, but that still isn’t an excuse to be sleazy. Use your GayRoyal profile as an opportunity to be your most desirable and attractive self. Most hookup sites will ask you questions to help you find the best possible matches. The GayRoyal questions are pretty concise, so answering all of them is a totally doable task. And yes, we definitely suggest answering all of them. They have to do with your desires, ideals, and bottom lines, so the more information you share, the more compatible your matches will be. We know, filling out your dating site profile isn’t exactly your idea of a good time. But put some effort into yours and we promise it will pay dividends. For the record, a good profile always includes several profile pictures. Imagine you wanted to search GayRoyal for matches and all the profiles you saw only had a single picture? It’s just not the way to get clicks, likes, and messages. Take a little time to feel good about your profile and we promise you won’t regret it.

Gayroyal app:

According to our research, this dating site has an app available for iPhone and Android. The GayRoyal mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it’s more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you’ll be able to access the GayRoyal desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you’ve got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.

Safety:

Let’s start with the biggest question you have: Is GayRoyal safe? Before you dive head first into a new dating site, it’s always a good idea to do some research. This becomes especially necessary when you’re looking at hookup and casual sex sites. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there. We’d also suggest you refer to the GayRoyal safety tips page to see how the site keeps its members safe. If you can’t find a safety page for the site, that might be a red flag right there. If you ever have contact with suspicious people on this dating site, please get in touch with GayRoyal help. Report the incident to help protect you and the site’s other members. We also encourage you to rely on your instincts when interacting with new people on a hookup site. If the encounter starts to feel fishy, go with your gut. The site’s moderators should always be informed of weird stuff happening on their site. So reach out and let them know if you suspect a scam. You can also get in touch with them if you need to cancel GayRoyal membership at any point.

Value for money:

Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is GayRoyal free? It’s very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It’s technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you’re using GayRoyal free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site’s most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That’s right, we’re about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person’s. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you’re interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like GayRoyal, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you’d like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you’re much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success.

Review conclusion:

If you came here hoping to read our GayRoyal reviews, we hope this article was useful. We know you’re interested in hookup and casual sex sites, which means this site would be a good fit on that level. If you’re looking for sexy NSA encounters and casual hookups, this site should for sure be on your radar. And if you’re wondering whether it’s the right site for you, hopefully you feel a little closer to a decision after reading the review.

James coyle verlobung mit lord ivar mountbatten

„Noch bist du kein Lord, Jimmy“, witzelte Lord Ivar Mountbatten in diesem Korkenknall-Post bei Instagram anlässlich der Bekanntgabe der Verlobung mit James Coyle (Foto). 

Peut-on donner le prix Nobel de la paix à la géniale lady Penny Mountbatten, qui se fait photographier avec son ex mari et le futur nouveau mari d’icelui ?Royal family’s first gay wedding: The story of the Queen’s cousin bear-magazine.com via @MailOnline

Two years after he announced he was gay, lord mountbatten, queen elizabeth ii’s cousin and a descendant of the royal family, ties the knot with james coyle.

Not long after Meghan Markle made history in May as the first mixed-race American woman to marry into the British royal family, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, has married James Coyle in what is the monarchy’s first-ever same-sex wedding, Coyle is an airline cabin services director whom Lord Ivar met back in 2014.

The couple has been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016 and exchanged their wedding vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon on last Saturday, the 22nd of September, 2018. The ceremonies lasted throughout the weekend.

Lord Mountbatten, who is also a descendant of Queen Victoria, has three children with his former wife, Penny Mountbatten. His wife and children have been very supportive of her husband’s relationship with Coyle.

The royal family still follows the rules of the Royal Marriages Act passed in 1772, which requires the first six people in the line of succession to receive permission from the ruling monarch before they tie the knot. But because Lord Mountbatten is not in the line of succession, he didn’t require the ruling monarch’s nod.

While most of the royal family wasn’t present for the wedding, the newlyweds celebrated with close family and friends. Taking to Instagram, Lord Ivar Mountbatten said, “Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather.” Thanking his family for their support, he added, “Most importantly, a massive thanks to my three gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened!”

“And finally, the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect…”, the newlywed Lord Mountbatten posted on Instagram.

The couple exchanged customized rings made for them by Milly Maunder and are currently honeymooning in Brazil.

Love = love!

Move over, Meghan Markle and unimportant royal family drama — the first ever gay royal wedding is set to take place this summer, just a few months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s, and right before Princess Eugenie’s nuptials.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten (say that three times fast!), is set to marry his partner, James Coyle in the monarchy’s fist ever gay royal wedding. It’s the first ever same-sex marriage in the family, and it’s certainly historic. Lord Ivar was previously married to his now ex-wife, Penny, before coming out publicly. By the time he came out, he was already deeply in love with James Coyle, and never looked back.

In a statement to the , Lord Ivar, “struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 16 year marriage,” and had told his former spouse he was bisexual even before he proposed. His former wife is a true gem, though, because she’s planning to walk Lord Ivar down the aisle — and idea straight from the daughter they share.

If you’re wondering if this gay royal wedding will have as much fanfare as Prince Harry’s — think again. The couple plans to wed in a private chapel on Lord Ivar’s estate in Devon, and party with roughly 100 friends and family members thereafter.

“We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that,” Coyle confessed to Daily Mail. Lord Ivar added that they’ll “probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect……#wedidit #wonderfulday #despitetherain

While Lord Mountbatten and Coyle were able to be legally wed in England, Northern Ireland still remains the only part of the UK without same-sex marriage.

Will queen elizabeth attend the first gay royal wedding?

Penny is set to give her ex-husband away to his new partner at the “small” ceremony.

“It’s just for the girls and close family and friends,” he said. It doesn’t seem like any royals are attending the wedding. Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Rhys-Jones — also known as the Earl and Countess of Essex — are the godparents of Mountbatten’s daughters, but they won’t be able to attend, either.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said. “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

The first gay royal wedding will have a reception for 120 guests with food and music — but no cake. “There won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?” Coyle said.

“We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

Get ready, y’all, because another royal wedding is in the works! And much like Meghan Markle’s nuptials to Prince Harry, it will be groundbreaking. Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is set to become the first royal in history to have a same-sex marriage.

According to , Lord Ivar came out as gay two years ago. Now, the father-of-three daughters— Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — has planned to start a new life with his partner, James Coyle. Fortunately, Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, whom he married 24 years ago, is in full support of the pair’s union.

So much so, that she will be walking Lord Ivar down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," Penny told Daily Mail. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

Penny continued that since Ivar came out, he’s become a much better version of himself. "What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock," Penny continued. "He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

Lord Ivar and James are set to be married this summer. The happy couple will tie the knot in Devon — a stunning coastal county in the southwest of England. We wish them all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world! After all, love is love.

A royal wedding like no other: the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten marries his new husband – after being given away by his ex-wife

Published: 22:26, 23 September 2018 | Updated: 07:26, 24 September 2018

For many a couple it is a long and winding road to the altar. 

For Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a divorced father of three, the path to matrimonial happiness has meant navigating all manner of obstacles that would test the strongest of relationships.

But yesterday, almost exactly two years after coming out as gay, the younger son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, and cousin of the Queen, was marking the first day of his new life — married to a man.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Lord Ivar and his new love James Coyle exchanged rings and vows in front of 60 family and friends including his three proud daughters.

 Never before, surely, has there been a wedding quite like it — the first ever same-sex marriage in the extended Royal Family.

A gospel choir serenaded them, and the toasts from their two best men saw guests raising flutes of Pol Roger, Churchill’s favourite champagne.

Twenty-four years ago, Princess Margaret was among those present at the grandest of ceremonies when Ivar married his wife Penny at the family’s ancestral home in Essex.

There were no royal witnesses for this latest union, solemnised in the private chapel at Bridwell Park — a Grade I-listed mansion near the village of Uffculme in Devon, where Lord and Lady Mountbatten settled and raised their family — and celebrated with a lavish reception in the orangery.

But the goodwill from Ivar’s extended family was flowing. He has received the warmest of congratulations from his lifelong friend Prince Edward, to whose eldest child, Lady Louise, he is godfather. 

The Earl and Countess of Wessex , who are also godparents to his two eldest daughters, were unable to be there.

Edward and Sophie knew of their plans but sadly couldn’t come. ‘Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they were not free,’ said Ivar, ‘but they adore James.’ 

Because Bridwell is used for corporate events and weddings, the date for Ivar and James’s nuptials could not be changed.

‘It was the only weekend in the diary when the house was free,’ says James, an airline cabin services director who will return to work today with a long-haul flight to Rio de Janeiro.

The honeymoon to Greece or Croatia — the destination has still to be decided — has been postponed until later in the year.

But like everything that has happened to this stylish couple, who chose matching velvet smoking jackets for their black-tie wedding, it has been managed with a reassuringly unflappable cool.

It wasn’t, of course, all plain sailing. Ivar’s marriage to Penny finally ran out of steam in 2011 when they let it be known that they had drifted apart.

Then, two years ago, he caused a stir when he confessed to having struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 17-year marriage. In fact, he had known from his teens that he was bisexual. 

‘Penny was aware before we got married . . . that my attraction went both ways,’ he said. ‘She was understanding and I will always be grateful to her.’

He finally admitted he was gay after finding contentment with Glasgow-born James, whom he met in 2014 in the upmarket Swiss alpine resort of Verbier, where Ivar and his family have always skied.

The outcome was happier than either man dared hope. Remarkably, the revelation did not destroy Ivar’s relationship with ex-wife Penny but strengthened it. 

And when their girls Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and 16-year-old Luli suggested she give their father away, the unconventional idea took root.

The weekend-long events began with a welcome dinner for 30 hosted by the couple on Friday night. 

The ceremony itself began on Saturday afternoon, by which time another 30 guests had arrived. None brought gifts. Instead, James and Ivar asked friends to make a donation to Regain, the spinal injury charity.

The chapel at Bridwell, with its twin herds of red and fallow deer grazing in the 140-acre park, was bedecked with flowers. 

Nine singers from Bristol’s Teachers Rock gospel choir added another distinctly a la mode touch to the service, which began with Penny escorting her ex-husband up the chapel aisle.

Guests then moved on to the orangery for a dinner of monkfish, and speeches followed by dancing.

So far, so normal — but elsewhere there were some subtle differences from the traditional marriage ceremony. There was no cake to cut but instead a tiered collection of their favourite cheeses. Nor are there plans for either man to change his name.

‘I suppose if we had met ten years ago a civil partnership would have been nice, but now that marriage between a man and a man is legal it seems the right thing to do,’ says Lord Ivar.

‘I have had the whole marriage thing — and been very happy — but James hasn’t, so I see it as a validation of my love for him.’

To the surprise of many — including himself, one suspects — Ivar has taken coming out in his stride.

‘Being a Mountbatten was never a problem,’ he said.

The great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma has the photographs to remind him of his place in royal society.

The pictures show him at royal weddings and christenings, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace and alongside the Queen on the Royal Yacht Britannia. 

Now a new set of photographs is going up in the drawing room — not of master and mistress but of master and master.

the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten is set to marry his partner james coyle.

Fresh off the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding last month, the British Royal family is gearing up for another historic set of nuptials in the form of its first ever same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s third cousin once removed who came out as gay in September 2016, has announced his engagement to airline cabin services director James Coyle, 56.

The couple are set to wed in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s country estate in Devon later this year – and Lord Mountbatten, 55, told the MailOnline that the engagement marks the end of a "real journey".

"Being a Mountbatten was never the problem," the great-great grandson of Queen Victoria says. "It was the generation into which I was born.

"When I was growing up, it was known as ‚the love that dare not speak its name‘, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.

He continues: "Coming out" is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point."

Lord Ivar has three children with his ex-wife Penelope Thompson, who he wed in 1994 before divorcing in 2011. He told her he was bisexual before they married, but the pair later split as the secret of his sexuality began to take a toll on their replationship.

Penelope is supportive of Lord Ivar’s new relationship and even plans to give her ex-husband away at the wedding – a gesture first suggested by their daughters.

"It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched", she says.

She goes on: "What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he ‚came out‘. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

‚Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder… He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‚out‘ he’s a completely different person.

"I said to James this morning, ‚I don’t think I’ve ever felt as happy as I do right now‘," he says.

"I’m proud too. Finally I am able to love myself and the reason this marriage is acceptable to all of us, particularly our lovely daughters, is because of the character of James, the nature of the beast — the gorgeous beast."

‚low morals‘

More is known about Edwina’s extra-marital affairs, but in the 75-year-old dossier, an aristocratic source close to them, interviewed by the FBI in the 1940s, described them as “persons of extremely low morals”.

British historian Andrew Lownie used freedom of information laws to source the files, and quotes them in his new biography of the famous couple.

Another source in the FBI files claimed that Mountbatten’s private life made him “an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations.”

In Lownie’s book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Ron Perks, who was Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, also breaks his silence.

He tells how Mountbatten had one favoured destination, the Red House near Rabat, which “was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers”, which he had not realised at the time.

Homesexual acts were banned in the UK until 1967, and many memos about Mountbatten’s sexuality have been edited or destroyed since.

Lord mountbatten ‚was a homosexual with a lust for young boys‘ claims secret fbi dossier compiled by agents seeking dirt on british statesmen during world war two and the suez crisis

Published: 08:31, 18 August 2019 | Updated: 14:47, 18 August 2019

Prince Charles‘ uncle and valued mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‚homosexual with a perversion for young boys‘, according to a secret dossier compiled by the FBI.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs.

One source said Mountbatten’s penchant for young men made him ‚an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations‘. 

The files paint a very different picture of the last viceroy of India – who was hailed as a war hero who led allied efforts in southeast Asia before he was assassinated in 1979 by an IRA bomb.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina (pictured in their younger days) as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs

It is not known why agents began compiling the dossier, but the FBI has long been known to keep compromising material on high-profile figures, most famously Martin Luther King.

The 75-year-old FBI documents were obtained through a freedom of information request by British historian Andrew Lownie, who has written a biography of the couple. 

In the book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Mountbatten’s former driver Ron Perks reveals that one of his boss’s favourite destinations was ‚an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers‘ called the Red House near Rabat.

Agents began compiling the file, which spans more than three decades, in February 1944, shortly after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. 

Following his appointment, the FBI interviewed Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, about another matter, and she brought up Mountbatten, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‚She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. 

‚She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. 

‚In Lady Decies‘ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.‘

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‚appears to have no special motive in making the above statements‘.

Agents opened more files on Mountbatten after World War II when he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Rumours about his personality swirled following his death, fulled by his comment: ‚Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds‘ (the couple pictured together)

But the FBI’s interest in Mountbatten peaked around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956. 

Rumours about Mountbatten’s sexuality have long swirled following his death 40 years ago.

The royal kept a large group of gay friends, including Noël Coward, Terence Rattigan, Ivor Novello and Tom Driberg, who reportedly referred to him as ‚Mountbottom‘. 

Lownie’s new book, to be published on Thursday, contains an interview with Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s.

Daly claims: ‚Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.‘

According to the , Lownie’s book hints the Life Guards was used as a “fruitful source” of young men for Louis Mountbatten.

Tom Driberg, a Labour party MP who was openly gay, was a friend of Louis Mountbatten. Lownie’s book quotes an associate of Driberg as saying, “Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms—handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.”

Lord mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive red house is given an airing by the historian andrew lownie in a revealing new book. but did the elusive red house brothel truly exist in rabat?

Lord Mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive Red House is given an airing by the historian Andrew Lownie in a revealing new book. But did the elusive Red House brothel truly exist in Rabat?

The Rabat Red House that served as a secret gay brothel attended by Lord Mountbatten exists no more with the only remnant being a foundation rock.

The building was mentioned in a yet to be published biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

Although Lownie’s investigation sheds little light on where the house is, research undertaken by MaltaToday points to a site in Rabat, just off the Roman Villa.

The building is no longer there and the only remnants of the Red House appear to be a red foundation rock and the name of the street, Red Tower Street.

Research for the biography unveils that the decorated war hero and uncle to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, used to frequent a gay brothel in Rabat during his time in Malta between 1950 and 1954.

Lownie describes this as the Red House, and quoting his source, Lownie told MaltaToday that The Red House functioned as “an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers.”

He said that Lord Mountbatten’s former chauffeur in Malta, now in his nineties, said that Mountbatten used his own personal car to get to the Rabat brothel.

The driver, Ron Perks, was once asked by Mountbatten to take him to this fabled house and he had acceded to the request.

“I found [the driver] from an interview in a newspaper cutting in East Anglia… and went to see him. During the course of the interview, he decided to tell me these things. He’s a very nice, serious, old school soldier,” Lownie said.

“It was an isolated, baronial-style building with a flat roof. One day as we were driving along, Mountbatten asked if I knew the Red House. I said I did and he asked if I would take him there, which I did. I never dropped him there, but he had his own car which he used often. He wouldn’t have asked me for nothing. I didn’t know what it was and only learnt after I came out of the service that it was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers. You’re taught to keep out of trouble in the Navy and I’ve never said a word about the incident until now,” Perks told Lownie.

In a chapter of Lownie’s book called ‘Rumours’, the biographer retells stories he heard about Mountbatten’s exploits in Malta.

“People told me stories about [Mountbatten] being invited on picnics in Malta and it was clearly a sexual invitation. There was also an affair with a woman in Malta but which was covered up. I wasn’t able to get anyone to speak on record about it. I think most of them didn’t want to say anything because of their loyalty towards him,” Lownie said.

Back in May 2018, Lownie used the Times of Malta to ask for any knowledge of The Red House by publishing a call for bear-magazine.com we reached out to him he said that that call was quite fruitless.

“I tried to locate [the house] and spoke to several people in Malta… tried various forums but with no luck. My source is in his nineties and was remembering back 70 years but he was pretty adamant about The Red House,” he said.

There is a red house, il-Palazz l-Aħmar, in the area known as Landrijiet in the outskirts of Rabat, today housing the restaurant Rogantino’bear-magazine.com its owner, Tony Grech, a history buff, insisted the Red House frequented by Lord Mountbatten was inside Rabat proper. “The Red House you’re looking for is close to the Roman Villa but it’s not there anymore. It has since been turned into a block of flats,” he told MaltaToday.

Grech’s claim was corroborated by an elderly acquaintance of Mountbatten – in Malta – who said the Red House was close to a drinking spot for horses.

Pictures of prominent photographers at the time, like Alfred Vella Gera and Richard Ellis do not seem to have documented The RedHouse.

Postcard collections compiled by the forensic expert Anthony Abela Medici do not feature the elusive house either, who said he was unaware of a red house on Red Tower Street.

Tony Grech and other sources told MaltaToday that the Red House belonged to the Von Brockdorff family, and at the time was used as a ‘party house’ by the British navy. The Von Brockdorffs eventually sold it and moved to Iklin, Grech suggested.

While he could not confirm the existence of a gay brothel in Rabat, Joseph Carmel Chetcuti, author of Queer Mediterranean Memories – a query history of Malta –said that Rabat was “quite gay friendly” at the time of Mountbatten.

“All I know is that [Mountbatten] used to go horse-riding and give young teenage boys a ride on the horse in Marsa… he used to hold them very close to him,” Chetcuti claimed.

Rumours of Lord Mountbatten and his Edwina’s sexual promiscuity have become part of the legend of the Mountbattens. But Lownie’s unearthing of the FBI files confirm the reputation of his alleged homosexuality to have been earned by Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin.Mountbatten himself had admitted later in life that he and his wife had spent “all [their] married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

He never confirmed, however, his interest in young men, and the story of the Red House in Rabat still proves elusive and largely based on hearsay.

Lownie told MaltaToday that he had encountered a 2002 Daily Express article which told the story of a possible illegitimate child of Lord Mountbatten, Andrew Guy, who was the adoptive son of a leading telegraphist — who served on some of the same ships as Lord Mountbatten – and a nurse to Lord Mountbatten’s daughters at Casa Medina in Malta.

The story seems to have not been followed up since that time and while Guy asked for Lord Mountbatten’s DNA for analysis, nothing else was reported.

Mountbatten was an admiral in the Royal Navy and served as Supreme Allied Commander, South East Command during the second World War. He also held the post of Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the NATO military Committee. He was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack on his private boat, in Mullaghmore in Ireland, in August 1979.

El tío favorito del príncipe carlos era, según una nueva biografía, bisexual y aficionado a los jóvenes militares. “pasamos nuestro matrimonio metiéndonos en las camas de otros”, llegó a afirmar

De lord Louis Mountbatten, el estimado mentor del príncipe Carlos de Inglaterra en su juventud, ha quedado para los británicos el recuerdo terrible de su asesinato por el IRA en 1979último virrey de la Indiadel imperio y sellar la independencia del subcontinente.

A las puertas del 40º aniversario de su muerte —que se cumple hoy—, el pasado jueves salió a la venta un libro que se ha atrevido a adentrarse en una faceta privada más indiscreta del personaje, que relata los avatares de su matrimonio abierto con lady Edwina y, por primera vez, descubre la afición del aristócrata y diplomático por chicos muy jóvenes. El autor, Andrew Lownie, sustenta la información en archivos desclasificados del FBI estadounidense.

Las revelaciones que inserta el título Los Mountbatten: their lives and loves (sus vidas y amores) van a tocar una fibra sensible de la familia real inglesa: un miembro de la nutrida prole de bisnietos de la reina Victoria, además de tío materno del duque Felipe de Edimburgo —el marido de Isabel II— y tío abuelo del príncipe Carlos, hoy heredero de la corona británica. El pariente al que todos apodaban Dickie, una personalidad de arrollador atractivo, fue consejero informal pero privilegiado de la actual monarca inglesa en los primeros años de su reinado. Y, más tarde, una suerte de figura paterna para su primogénito, Carlos.

“Pasamos nuestra vida matrimonial metiéndonos cada uno en las camas de otros”, llegó a admitir lord Mountbatten en un momento de debilidad y como resumen de su matrimonio con Edwina Ashley, también aristócrata y heredera de una ingente fortuna. Se casaron en 1922 y, a los dos años, emprendieron rumbo a Nueva York en compañía del entonces príncipe de Gales, el futuro y efímero rey Eduardo VIII, que entregó el trono supuestamente por el amor de Wallis Simpson. Entonces Louis se puso enfermo y su mujer no quiso que aquella amigdalitis le aguara la fiesta. A lo largo de la travesía, flirteó noche tras noche con jóvenes atraídos por una mujer guapa y rica, pero solo tras su desembarco estadounidense recabó al primer amante. Le siguieron muchos más.

Hasta aquí el libro no presenta grandes novedades sobre la historiografía oficiosa de una pareja que acabó cerrando un pacto para capear el escándalo que se cernía sobre la casa de los Windsor: Edwina apoyaría a su marido en su carrera y a cambio cada uno se labraría sus propias aventuras sexuales. La promiscuidad de ella llegó a ser objeto de algunos artículos que consiguieron superar la férrea censura de aquellos tiempos. Y que tuvieron su pico cuando una columnista británica aventuró que había entablado relaciones con un hombre “de color”, el intérprete Paul Robeson, aupado al éxito gracias a su Otelo en el West End. Se daba por hecho que lord Mountbatten también dormía en otros lechos, pero en la época aquello no se le tenía en cuenta.

Otros rumores, más soterrados, sobre la supuesta bisexualidad de Dickie siempre toparon con el bloqueo del establishment. Las relaciones gais estaban penadas entonces con la cárcel. Algunos de los documentos secretos recopilados por los servicios de inteligencia estadounidenses a lo largo de tres décadas son ahora recogidos en un libro que le atribuye una especial debilidad por los hombres jóvenes, y en especial los uniformados.

“Esa perversión”, sostenía la baronesa Decies, amiga de la reina madre, en sus contactos con el FBI, “le incapacita para cualquier clase de operación militar”, según reza uno de los pocos archivos que no acabaron destruidos. El chófer de lord Mountbatten en su consiguiente destino en Malta también confirmó sus frecuentes visitas a un burdel gay frecuentado por oficiales de la marina. El relato del libro incluye posteriores testimonios de los años sesenta y setenta sobre las artes seductoras del aristócrata centradas en oficiales y algún marinero, todos ellos muy jóvenes.

El libro sostiene que también hubo muchas mujeres en su vida, entre ellas la estrella hollywoodense Shirley MacLaine, y que las andanzas del lord no iban a la zaga de las de Edwina. Pero hasta ahora ella siempre había sido el foco de su disfuncional matrimonio. Un capítulo especial en la vida de lady Mountbatten fue su estrecha relación con el futuro fundador de la India independiente, Jawaharlal Nehru, cuando él era primer ministro y ella ejercía de esposa del último gobernador británico. Un secreto a voces. “Nehru era un viudo que estaba solo en la cúspide del poder, y mi madre se convirtió en su confidente”, confirmaba hace doce años en otro libro la hija menor de los Mountbatten, Pamela (Hicks es su apellido de casada). Siempre ha quedado en el aire si se trató de un amor platónico por ambas partes o si hubo algo más.

Edwina murió en 1960, dejando tras de sí una reputación de mujer disoluta para los cerrados parámetros de la época. Las variadas aficiones sexuales de Louis fueron en cambio enterradas bajo un código de silencio. Y solo han salido a la luz cuatro décadas después de que estallara una bomba colocada por los terroristas en el barco en el que navegaba por aguas cercanas al Ulster. Tenía 79 años y una reputación impoluta.

26. washing his hands

After the war, Mountbatten became Viceroy to India. That country only recently won its independence from the British empire, and Mountbatten’s job was to make the transition from colonial property to independent nation as seamless as possible.

This was no easy task. India was on the verge of civil war, divided between followers of Jawaharlal Nehru (who was also, awkwardly, Mountbatten’s wife’s boyfriend), who wanted a united, Hindu-led India, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who wanted a separate Muslim state. Rather than risk England’s involvement, Mountbatten insisted on granting India independence a.s.a.p.

40. his secret shame

The Baroness was not the only one to level allegations at Mountbatten. Mountbatten’s former driver revealed that he would frequently deliver Mountbatten to a gay brothel in Morocco. Another driver admitted to bringing boys as young as 12 to Mountbatten’s home. One male sex worker in England claims that the royal was one of his clients. He also said that Mountbatten preferred young men in uniform.

be careful: premium does not include xl on the website

Two days ago I got a 3 months Premium subscription, thinking my account would also be Premium on the GayRoyal-website. But that’s not true! Go to bear-magazine.com and buy an XL membership cause that also includes Premium in the app. It’s almost the same price as Premium by itself. And Premium in the app offers very little options. So beware.

Gayroyal und sein ruf – was verbirgt sich hinter dem image?

GayRoyal gehört definitiv zu den bekannteren Seiten der Szene. Sicherlich hat jeder Gay bereits von dem entsprechenden Angebot gehört. Besonders charakteristisch: die Seite galt bzw. gilt für viele als etwas „schmuddeliger“ als viele Seiten der Konkurrenz.

Häufig wird sie in direkten Bezug zu GayRomeo gesetzt und schneidet hier entsprechend ab. Hierbei sollte jedoch nicht vergessen werden, dass „schmuddelig“ nicht zwangsläufig „schlecht“ bedeutet. Die Zielgruppe ist jedoch definitiv eine andere.

Einige User schrieben (im Rahmen verschiedener Erfahrungsberichte im Internet) über Probleme mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen bear-magazine.com hier gilt jedoch wieder, dass der Zufriedenheitsfaktor zu einem hohen Maße von der individuellen Einstellung abhängig ist. Wer beispielsweise kein Problem mit einer vergleichsweise schlichten Menüführung hat und schnelle Abenteuer bevorzugt, dürfte mit GayRoyal nach wie vor auf seine Kosten kommen.

Vor allem mit Hinblick auf die Tatsache, dass sich in den letzten Wochen einige User ohnehin darüber beschwert haben, dass „ihr“ Gayromeo zum Schlechten hin verändert wurde, dürfte sich hier demnächst einiges tun.

Winging it

Son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, Lord Ivar has admitted that even his mother Janet, 81, supports him fully – saying everyone should ‚try everything once‘.

Meanwhile, Prince William recently said that it would be ‚absolutely fine‘ if any of his children came out as gay, saying he would ’support any decision they make‘.

And the Prince also made history back in 2016 when he appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

gear up for the first ever same-sex royal wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic event. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a gay wedding. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

“It was the girls’ idea,” she explained in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew, going into her marriage with Lord Ivar, that he identified as bisexual.

“What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun,” she said. “Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret, it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out, he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” Lord Ivar explained. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

Wer nutzt gayroyal? gibt es eine bestimmte zielgruppe?

Vielleicht auch aufgrund der Tatsache, dass es sich bei GayRoyal um einen absoluten Klassiker der Gay Szene handelt, tummeln sich hier – gerade im Vergleich zu anderen Seiten – oft (jedoch nicht nur) ältere User.

Grundlegend gab es hier auch nicht wirklich viele Änderungen mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen Nutzerkomfort. Die Menüführung wirkt einfach, bietet jedoch auch dementsprechend keine größeren Überraschungen oder Effekte.

Bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com – mit fokus auf chat und transparenz

Viele Gays ärgern sich beim Chatten über einen Mangel an Transparenz. Besonders nervig: das virtuelle „Gegenüber“ hat sich gegen das Hochladen eines Profilbildes entschieden oder schickt direkt ein „Dick-Pic“. Je nach individuellem Chatgrund kommen diese Vorgehensweisen nur selten gut an.

Seiten wie bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com setzen exakt an dieser Stelle an. Hier chatten viele User mit Bild. Gleichzeitig steht häufig ein Austausch auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen im Fokus. Der Anspruch der Nutzer ist dementsprechend hoch.

Wahrscheinlich ist es dieser positive Ruf, der nun dafür sorgt, dass diese Seiten – nach der Umstellung von GayRomeo und der Gestaltung bzw. den Inhalten von GayRoyal – sich einer so großen Beliebtheit erfreuen. Gay Chats sind schon lange nicht mehr alternativlos. User haben die Möglichkeit sich – je nach Seite auch im ersten Schritt kostenlos – einen persönlichen Eindruck vom Verhalten der User zu machen. Hier zeigt sich in der Regel schnell, inwieweit die betreffende Seite dafür geschaffen sein könnte, die eigenen Flirtambitionen zu unterstützen.

Zu platte Themen oder ein Hang zum Versenden von Nacktbildern werden hier schnell aufgedeckt. Gays, die sich auf der ernsthaften Suche nach einem festen Partner befinden, dürften hier abgeschreckt werden. Auch Schwule, die gerade erst ihr Coming Out hinter sich haben, suchen gegebenenfalls einen Chatpartner, mit dem sie sowohl reden als auch flirten können. Exakt an dieser Stelle kommen Seiten wie bear-magazine.com ins Spiel.

Gayromeo, gayroyal oder andere? eigene erfahrungen als basis für die richtige entscheidung

Der Chat Alltag in der Gay Szene zeigt, dass es auf der Suche nach der „perfekten Seite“ unerlässlich ist, seine eigenen Erfahrungen zu sammeln.

Berichte bzw. Erfahrungsberichte aus dem Internet können dabei helfen, sich einen ersten Eindruck über:

zu machen. Dennoch sollte hier nie zu vorschnell geurteilt werden. Denn: wer sagt einem Nutzer, dass er nicht auch in einer als „schmuddeligem Chat“ verrufenen Variante die „Liebe seines Lebens“ finden könnte?

Daher gilt es, auszutesten und sich gleichzeitig auch immer über die passenden Alternativen zu GayRoyal und Co. zu informieren. Wer offen bleibt und seine Möglichkeiten nutzt, erkennt schnell, dass das Chatten vor einem ersten Date mindestens ebenso wichtig ist, wie die richtigen Worte zum richtigen Zeitpunkt.

The first same-sex royal wedding has taken place – a historic occasion for the monarchy.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and his partner James Coyle married over the weekend, after announcing in June that they would be tying the knot.

The pair, who have been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016, reportedly exchanged vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon in front of 60 family and friends, according to the .

In september of 2016, lord ivar mountbatten, the queen’s cousin, came out as gay. and now he has announced that he is due to get married.

At the time of his coming out, Lord Mountbatten told the Mail on Sunday about his long-term relationship with James Coyle, an airline cabin services director, and the happiness he had found.

“Being a Mountbatten was never the problem,” he told the paper, “It was the generation into which I was born. When I was growing up, it was known as ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.”

Speaking to the MailOnline, Lord Mountbatten said: “All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Lord Mountbatten also confirmed that he had received a full blessing from the Royal Family. The wedding itself is due to take place later in the Summer, in Lord Mountbatten’s private chapel on his country estate in Devon.

In the article, Lord Mountbatten confirmed that it was him who was pushing for the marriage. “‘I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married,” he said.

He continued, saying: “‘For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”

Before he came out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Penny Thompson, although the couple divorced in 2011. However, showing that there is no bad blood between the couple, Penny will be the person walking Lord Mountbatten down the aisle.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said. She also mentioned how her and James had began getting on within “ten seconds” of meeting each other.

She further added: “What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

“‘Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Even though the MailOnline is associated with The Daily Mail, which is known to be quite homophobic, the majority of the comments on the article were incredibly supportive.

“Love is Love. Wishing them all the best especially the wife who certainly has a halo above her head in my estimation,” said one. Another said: “Heartening to read about such wonderful relationships and the understanding all round.”

And back in April it was found that nearly three quarters of British people didn’t object to a same-sex royal wedding, and that two-thirds were supportive of the idea.

First gay

When media have they finished discussing the wedding of Prince Harry with American actress Megan Markle, the royal family is again at the center of attention. And again because of the wedding! This time 55-year-old cousin of Queen Elizabeth II Lord Ivar Mountbatten married his beloved, 56-year-old man, James Coyle. It is noteworthy that this is the first gay wedding in the royal family.

Lord ivar is a divorcee

Lord Ivar Mountbatten was previously married to a woman named Penny, with whom he had three daughters. He reportedly told Penny before their engagement that he was bisexual, as reported by E! News.

Among the guests at the wedding, the ex-wife of the Lord was seen along with their three daughters. Despite the fact that they divorced back in 2011, the former spouses remained on good terms. According to the Queen’s brother himself, all 17 years while he lived with his wife, he doubted his sexual orientation, and only a few years ago dared to openly say that he was gay.

In fact, Penny walked Lord Mountbatten down the aisle on his wedding day. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.

British royalty changed their name from Saxa-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to distance themselves from their germanic heritage. Minor Royals such as Mountbatten followed suit with their own surnames. Interesting article and great aim for the site. I wouldn’t want factual errors to undermine this.

Oh! What Evil webs we weave! When we practice to deceive

Oh what a Tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive

There is a full documentary on Youtube about the various sins of the Royal Family. It is so scurrilous that I doubt a lot of it is true, although this bit seems to be. The Edwina-Nehru affair is widely known (there was a movie about it–I think it is called The Last Viceroy), and the bisexual rumors don’t disturb me, but the child porn charges are truly shocking. I must say I am also chagrined that Churchill said that about the Indian people. I think they are lovely people, and I think it was right to relinquish The Raj, but I regret the bloodshed that followed. Still, today India seems to be thriving, despite continued outrages against women. I’ve got a lot of opinions, don’t I?

Especially given Churchill’s atrocious appearance and manners. Ugh! SI tu n’es pas joli, soit poli!!

I see you have opted for ‚rumoured‘ when you have absolutely not proof of any of this, in fact where is the proof? Mountbatten was not well liked by some members of the royal family the Duke and Duchess of Windsor for one.

Mountbatten was extremely close to the Duke of Windsor until 1937 (as you can see from the photo above) I don’t think the Duke ever forgave him for not attending his weeding to Wallace

Well the Duke ear himself a bloody traitor to his nation and Jan an affair with Louis during the empire tours. As for that Yankee harlot and usurper, a pro Nazi bitch. I would never learn to those could say.

No member of the Royal family was present at the Duke’s wedding in France and quite rightly so. That Yankee harlot has never allowed to received by any noble or Royal house in Europe.

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Prince Charles from an early age knew Dickie had it in for him .

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Yes Uncle Dick enouraged Charles with young boys at a hotel on the Buckingham Palace Road

Was Louis Mountbatten the 1st or 2nd cousin of Edward v111 and his brother George v1?

He was second cousin of both Edward VIII and George VI

Lord Mountbatten has been linked to a Major pedophile scandal regarding an Irish school boys

His cousin Edward has being known to be bisexual. There are rumors of his nephew prince Phillips to be also bisexual and pedophile. Charles we know has had homosexual experiences. His closeness to Saville and a pedophile bishop and to his uncle Lord Mountbatten and the unpublished spider notes makes people wonder if Charles is also bisexual and a pedophile or what?

And all the nice strong French lads when he was in France " painting " Yeah painting BOLLOCKS!!

It spells Bad Taste to me, which is the opposite of Gay.

It’s really easy to create stories about the dead since they aren’t here to defend themselves.

Contrary to your insinuation, these "stories" were not created after Lord Mountbatten’s death. All of it was well known during his lifetime. Read a few books to educated yourself about the particulars. I did (your blogger).

All of it was well substantiated or just well publicized by the media ?

Don’t be so lazy, spouting conspiracy theories. Read some books, get the facts before challenging anyone’s comments. Sheesh! — your blogger.

Is there anymore articles that refrenref mountbatton and pedophilia

I really admire this man but cannot imagine him involved in an international paedophile gang using children, that is revolting!!

That’s a bit hard for me to accept too . It’s like accepting Sally Hemmings had Thomas Jefferson’s bastard . Might be true but seems so out of character . Lovers of liberty lost a dear friend that day in 1979 .

You do know that DNA confirmed Jefferson’s mixed descendants? The white and black descendants even met up on tv.

I just watched a documentary on YouTube about this disgusting, creepy pig called "Secrets of the Royals-Lord Mountbatten:Hero or Villian"….I wonder why no mention of the pedophile ring he was rumored to be involved in?? I also wondered if he somehow cleverly murdered his wife, Edwina. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Queen Elizabeth Bowles-Lyon plotted his bear-magazine.com how they hated each other and the fact that Hitler himself is quoted as calling her, the most dangerous woman alive. I put nothing past this disgusting inbred, narcissistic, sociopathic, narcopathic family, as well as other monarchs, emporers, etc. Can’t believe people admire such filthy, morally corrupt slime yet condemn poor people, minorities, homosexuals, those with disabilities etc!

Wer diesen mix zu schätzen weiß, dürfte sich auf gayroyal wohlfühlen. doch was ist eigentlich mit dem rest?

Was ist mit Gays, die sich nicht mit den neuen Seiten und Funktionen von GayRomeo anfreunden können und sich nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen Anbieter befinden?

Wie bereits erwähnt, sind die Möglichkeiten sehr vielseitig. Nun gilt es „nur“ noch, keine Einbußen mit Hinblick auf die Qualität der Seiten hinzunehmen. Wem GayRoyal zu fetisch bzw. zu speziell ist, kann sich unter anderem auf bear-magazine.com und auf bear-magazine.com umsehen. Beide Seiten bieten einen bunten Mix aus Chat, Flirt und weiteren Extras und sind in der Regel bei Gays aus nahezu allen Altersgruppen beliebt.

Prince Charles’ mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‘homosexual with a perversion for young boys’, according to unearthed FBI files.

The celebrated war hero, who was the last Viceroy of India, and his wife Edwina Mountbatten were described as ‘persons of extremely low morals’ in intelligence files, which claim both frequently had extramarital affairs.

The 75-year-old FBI documents came out after being obtained through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request made by British historian Andrew Lownie for his new biography The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves.

The files were started in February 1944, following Mountbatten’s appointment as supreme allied commander of southeast Asia.

In one interview on another matter with author and socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, she claimed Mountbatten had a penchant for young men that made him an ‘unfit man to direct any sort of military operations’, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‘She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

‘She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

‘In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.’

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‘appears to have no special motive in making the above statements’.

In the new book, Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s, also claims: ‘Tom [Driberg] said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.’

Rumours of Mountbatten’s homosexuality have circulated for decades, with his group of gay friends allegedly referring to him by the nickname ‘Mountbottom’.

In addition, gossip about his and his wife’s extra lovers have swirled, spurred by his comment: ‘Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.’

It’s not known why FBI agents began putting together the dossier, which spans over more than three decades.

Agents opened further files on Mountbatten – described by Prince Charles as the ‘grandfather I never had’ – after World War II after he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Their interest in the British Navy officer and statesman, who was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack in 1979, reached an all-time high around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956.

The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves will be published on August 22.

Prince Philip’s cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten will be fighting the elements after joining the cast of this year’s Treasure Island with Bear Grylls.

The 56-year-old, who is a member of the extended Royal Family, has previously made history as being the first in the bloodline to be in an open same-sex relationship.

He’s now joining the series in hopes to show a new side of the upper middle class family he lives in, and to chance perceptions of the aristocracy.

He told The Sun: ‘They automatically assume that a lord is going to be about 80 years old, wear tweed suits and act like they’ve stepped out of Downton Abbey.

‘Don’t get me wrong, my upbringing was almost like a real life Downton Abbey, but I don’t think I am like that, I’m an openly gay lord.

Lord Mountbatten married James Coyle last year, and given away by his ex-wife Lady Penny Mountbatten, with whom he has three daughters.

Mountbatten will be fighting for a £100,000 prize fund on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, in scenes set to air later this year.

However, the show almost started with a disaster after Bear Grylls himself was stung by a bee, which he is deathly allergic to, on route to the actual island.

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect”

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

[quote]Since the assassination of Mountbatten in an IRA bomb attack 40 years ago, rumours have swirled about his sexuality, fuelled by his comment: “ a and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

[quote]The FBI files cover more than three decades. The first is dated February 1944, soon after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, when interviewed about another matter, had mentioned being an intimate of Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary and their ladies-in-waiting.

[quote]In April 1957 the FBI produced a memo on allegations of an affair between Paul Robeson, the singer, and a, who had several liaisons with black men. She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

In an official statement, he said that he has struggled with his sexuality all along.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

1st Earl Mountbatten of BurmaAssassinationFirst Sea LordIrish Republican ArmyLady BarbourneLord Louis MountbattenPrince Louis of BattenbergSuez Crisis of 1956Viceroy of IndiaYola Letellier

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Grundsätzlich: worauf sollte bei der suche nach einer „perfekten datingseite“ geachtet werden?

Auch wenn es sich auf den ersten Blick ein wenig unromantisch anhören mag: wer sich auf der Suche nach Liebe, Sex oder einem Abenteuer im Internet befindet, sollte immer auf die Seriosität der entsprechenden Seiten achten.

Ist diese gewährleistet, gilt es, sich mit weiteren Details, wie zum Beispiel:

Auseinanderzusetzen. Schnell wird hier klar, dass es schwerfällt, hier von einer „besten Seite“ zu sprechen. Vielmehr ist es wichtig, dass Seiten wie GayRoyal, bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com zum eigenen Geschmack und den persönlichen Erwartungen passen.

Oft hilft es auch, die Angebote einfach auszuprobieren und sich dann zu entscheiden.

So, what is GayRoyal? It’s an adult dating site that caters to people interested in hookup and casual sex. You can find plenty of hotties here looking for no strings or low-commitment fun.

But if you’re interested in meeting some sexy locals for an NSA relationship, the GayRoyal website has what you need. But is it the right choice for you? We want to help you find the best adult dating site for your unique, personal needs. That’s why we’ll share all the important info you need to make up your mind about this site. In this article, we’ll tell you all about the site’s users, sign up process, safety, costs, and much more. Keep reading, our full GayRoyal reviews are coming up next.

Gayroyal users:

We know it’s important to get a sense of the GayRoyal membership before you join. You want to be sure that the site you’re considering actually has the kind of members you want to meet. Most of the folks who join this site are looking for adult dating via NSA hookups and casual sex. This means you’re likely to meet plenty of GayRoyal members who want to hook up tonight. If you’re seeking long term commitment or marriage, this probably isn’t the right site for you.

Connect now to meet local hotties who want the same sexy things you do.

If you’re looking for the best Gay Dating sites, you’ve probably heard of GayRoyal. But you’re here because you want to know whether this could be the right dating site for you. And we want to help you decide. GayRoyal Gay Dating dating offers you a welcoming and safe environment to meet and connect. Above all, you’ll be meeting other people who are looking for the kinds of connections you’re seeking. Read the rest of our reviews for all the info you need to decide if this site or app has what you want in a dating provider.

Gayroyal sign up:

Okay, it’s time to look at how to sign up for GayRoyal. The process to join as a registered user is super simple and fast. Because this site focuses on hookups and casual sex, the amount of info you need to get started is pretty minimal. To register shouldn’t take you more than 5-10 minutes. You’ll start by going to the GayRoyal sign in page. First, select your gender identity and the gender identity or identities of the people you’re hoping to meet. Next, you’ll be asked to share your email address and to pick a unique password to use on the site. You can also choose your GayRoyal username at this point. Of course, there’s a lot to say about how to pick the best username for a hookup site. But we’ve distilled it all into this suggestion. Capture tone and attitude by choosing descriptive words that let other members get to know who you are and what you’re all about.Finally, you’ll need to let the site know where you’re located and what your birthday is. And that’s it! That was literally the entire registration process right there. Now that you have your GayRoyal login, you can sign in and start connecting with local hotties now.

Gayroyal chat:

Okay, your new account is registered and ready to go…and so are you. It’s time to start chatting with some hotties. Most dating sites have a chat feature that lets you get to know the site’s members on a more personal level. But the most modern hookup sites have features like voice and video chat, so you can get to know potential partners a little more intimately. Found someone you want to connect with? Just send out a couple GayRoyal messages to the members you’re most interested in. If you want to see who’s online and ready to chat, it’s super easy to find out. Just use the GayRoyal search feature to scroll through a list of members who match your criteria. Once you find the people you want to connect with, it’s super easy to reach out and start a conversation.

Gayroyal profiles:

So now it’s time to get your profile ready for some action. Start by navigating to the GayRoyal log in page and sign in to your account. We know that this site is all about hookups and casual sex, but that still isn’t an excuse to be sleazy. Use your GayRoyal profile as an opportunity to be your most desirable and attractive self. Most hookup sites will ask you questions to help you find the best possible matches. The GayRoyal questions are pretty concise, so answering all of them is a totally doable task. And yes, we definitely suggest answering all of them. They have to do with your desires, ideals, and bottom lines, so the more information you share, the more compatible your matches will be. We know, filling out your dating site profile isn’t exactly your idea of a good time. But put some effort into yours and we promise it will pay dividends. For the record, a good profile always includes several profile pictures. Imagine you wanted to search GayRoyal for matches and all the profiles you saw only had a single picture? It’s just not the way to get clicks, likes, and messages. Take a little time to feel good about your profile and we promise you won’t regret it.

Gayroyal app:

According to our research, this dating site has an app available for iPhone and Android. The GayRoyal mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it’s more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you’ll be able to access the GayRoyal desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you’ve got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.

Safety:

Let’s start with the biggest question you have: Is GayRoyal safe? Before you dive head first into a new dating site, it’s always a good idea to do some research. This becomes especially necessary when you’re looking at hookup and casual sex sites. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there. We’d also suggest you refer to the GayRoyal safety tips page to see how the site keeps its members safe. If you can’t find a safety page for the site, that might be a red flag right there. If you ever have contact with suspicious people on this dating site, please get in touch with GayRoyal help. Report the incident to help protect you and the site’s other members. We also encourage you to rely on your instincts when interacting with new people on a hookup site. If the encounter starts to feel fishy, go with your gut. The site’s moderators should always be informed of weird stuff happening on their site. So reach out and let them know if you suspect a scam. You can also get in touch with them if you need to cancel GayRoyal membership at any point.

Value for money:

Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is GayRoyal free? It’s very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It’s technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you’re using GayRoyal free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site’s most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That’s right, we’re about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person’s. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you’re interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like GayRoyal, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you’d like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you’re much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success.

Review conclusion:

If you came here hoping to read our GayRoyal reviews, we hope this article was useful. We know you’re interested in hookup and casual sex sites, which means this site would be a good fit on that level. If you’re looking for sexy NSA encounters and casual hookups, this site should for sure be on your radar. And if you’re wondering whether it’s the right site for you, hopefully you feel a little closer to a decision after reading the review. DatingPerfect wants to make sure you get the most out of your online dating experiences. Of course, we can help by providing you with a lot of info about the site in question. But we can also help with GayRoyal promo codes and special offers. We’ll hook you up whenever possible. Ready to try out this site and see if it has what you’ve been looking for?

James coyle verlobung mit lord ivar mountbatten

„Noch bist du kein Lord, Jimmy“, witzelte Lord Ivar Mountbatten in diesem Korkenknall-Post bei Instagram anlässlich der Bekanntgabe der Verlobung mit James Coyle (Foto). 

Peut-on donner le prix Nobel de la paix à la géniale lady Penny Mountbatten, qui se fait photographier avec son ex mari et le futur nouveau mari d’icelui ?Royal family’s first gay wedding: The story of the Queen’s cousin bear-magazine.com via @MailOnline

Two years after he announced he was gay, lord mountbatten, queen elizabeth ii’s cousin and a descendant of the royal family, ties the knot with james coyle.

Not long after Meghan Markle made history in May as the first mixed-race American woman to marry into the British royal family, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, has married James Coyle in what is the monarchy’s first-ever same-sex wedding, Coyle is an airline cabin services director whom Lord Ivar met back in 2014.

The couple has been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016 and exchanged their wedding vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon on last Saturday, the 22nd of September, 2018. The ceremonies lasted throughout the weekend.

Lord Mountbatten, who is also a descendant of Queen Victoria, has three children with his former wife, Penny Mountbatten. His wife and children have been very supportive of her husband’s relationship with Coyle.

The royal family still follows the rules of the Royal Marriages Act passed in 1772, which requires the first six people in the line of succession to receive permission from the ruling monarch before they tie the knot. But because Lord Mountbatten is not in the line of succession, he didn’t require the ruling monarch’s nod.

While most of the royal family wasn’t present for the wedding, the newlyweds celebrated with close family and friends. Taking to Instagram, Lord Ivar Mountbatten said, “Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather.” Thanking his family for their support, he added, “Most importantly, a massive thanks to my three gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened!”

“And finally, the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect…”, the newlywed Lord Mountbatten posted on Instagram.

The couple exchanged customized rings made for them by Milly Maunder and are currently honeymooning in Brazil.

Love = love!

Move over, Meghan Markle and unimportant royal family drama — the first ever gay royal wedding is set to take place this summer, just a few months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s, and right before Princess Eugenie’s nuptials.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten (say that three times fast!), is set to marry his partner, James Coyle in the monarchy’s fist ever gay royal wedding. It’s the first ever same-sex marriage in the family, and it’s certainly historic. Lord Ivar was previously married to his now ex-wife, Penny, before coming out publicly. By the time he came out, he was already deeply in love with James Coyle, and never looked back.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Apr 7, 2018 at 7:06am PDT

In a statement to the , Lord Ivar, “struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 16 year marriage,” and had told his former spouse he was bisexual even before he proposed. His former wife is a true gem, though, because she’s planning to walk Lord Ivar down the aisle — and idea straight from the daughter they share.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Jun 17, 2018 at 4:35pm PDT

If you’re wondering if this gay royal wedding will have as much fanfare as Prince Harry’s — think again. The couple plans to wed in a private chapel on Lord Ivar’s estate in Devon, and party with roughly 100 friends and family members thereafter.

“We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that,” Coyle confessed to Daily Mail. Lord Ivar added that they’ll “probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect……#wedidit #wonderfulday #despitetherain

While Lord Mountbatten and Coyle were able to be legally wed in England, Northern Ireland still remains the only part of the UK without same-sex marriage.

Will queen elizabeth attend the first gay royal wedding?

Penny is set to give her ex-husband away to his new partner at the “small” ceremony.

“It’s just for the girls and close family and friends,” he said. It doesn’t seem like any royals are attending the wedding. Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Rhys-Jones — also known as the Earl and Countess of Essex — are the godparents of Mountbatten’s daughters, but they won’t be able to attend, either.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said. “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

The first gay royal wedding will have a reception for 120 guests with food and music — but no cake. “There won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?” Coyle said.

“We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

Get ready, y’all, because another royal wedding is in the works! And much like Meghan Markle’s nuptials to Prince Harry, it will be groundbreaking. Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is set to become the first royal in history to have a same-sex marriage.

According to , Lord Ivar came out as gay two years ago. Now, the father-of-three daughters— Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — has planned to start a new life with his partner, James Coyle. Fortunately, Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, whom he married 24 years ago, is in full support of the pair’s union.

So much so, that she will be walking Lord Ivar down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," Penny told Daily Mail. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

Penny continued that since Ivar came out, he’s become a much better version of himself. "What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock," Penny continued. "He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

Lord Ivar and James are set to be married this summer. The happy couple will tie the knot in Devon — a stunning coastal county in the southwest of England. We wish them all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world! After all, love is love.

A royal wedding like no other: the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten marries his new husband – after being given away by his ex-wife

Published: 22:26, 23 September 2018 | Updated: 07:26, 24 September 2018

For many a couple it is a long and winding road to the altar. 

For Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a divorced father of three, the path to matrimonial happiness has meant navigating all manner of obstacles that would test the strongest of relationships.

But yesterday, almost exactly two years after coming out as gay, the younger son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, and cousin of the Queen, was marking the first day of his new life — married to a man.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Lord Ivar and his new love James Coyle exchanged rings and vows in front of 60 family and friends including his three proud daughters.

 Never before, surely, has there been a wedding quite like it — the first ever same-sex marriage in the extended Royal Family.

A gospel choir serenaded them, and the toasts from their two best men saw guests raising flutes of Pol Roger, Churchill’s favourite champagne.

Twenty-four years ago, Princess Margaret was among those present at the grandest of ceremonies when Ivar married his wife Penny at the family’s ancestral home in Essex.

There were no royal witnesses for this latest union, solemnised in the private chapel at Bridwell Park — a Grade I-listed mansion near the village of Uffculme in Devon, where Lord and Lady Mountbatten settled and raised their family — and celebrated with a lavish reception in the orangery.

But the goodwill from Ivar’s extended family was flowing. He has received the warmest of congratulations from his lifelong friend Prince Edward, to whose eldest child, Lady Louise, he is godfather. 

The Earl and Countess of Wessex , who are also godparents to his two eldest daughters, were unable to be there.

Edward and Sophie knew of their plans but sadly couldn’t come. ‘Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they were not free,’ said Ivar, ‘but they adore James.’ 

Because Bridwell is used for corporate events and weddings, the date for Ivar and James’s nuptials could not be changed.

‘It was the only weekend in the diary when the house was free,’ says James, an airline cabin services director who will return to work today with a long-haul flight to Rio de Janeiro.

The honeymoon to Greece or Croatia — the destination has still to be decided — has been postponed until later in the year.

But like everything that has happened to this stylish couple, who chose matching velvet smoking jackets for their black-tie wedding, it has been managed with a reassuringly unflappable cool.

It wasn’t, of course, all plain sailing. Ivar’s marriage to Penny finally ran out of steam in 2011 when they let it be known that they had drifted apart.

Then, two years ago, he caused a stir when he confessed to having struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 17-year marriage. In fact, he had known from his teens that he was bisexual. 

‘Penny was aware before we got married . . . that my attraction went both ways,’ he said. ‘She was understanding and I will always be grateful to her.’

He finally admitted he was gay after finding contentment with Glasgow-born James, whom he met in 2014 in the upmarket Swiss alpine resort of Verbier, where Ivar and his family have always skied.

The outcome was happier than either man dared hope. Remarkably, the revelation did not destroy Ivar’s relationship with ex-wife Penny but strengthened it. 

And when their girls Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and 16-year-old Luli suggested she give their father away, the unconventional idea took root.

The weekend-long events began with a welcome dinner for 30 hosted by the couple on Friday night. 

The ceremony itself began on Saturday afternoon, by which time another 30 guests had arrived. None brought gifts. Instead, James and Ivar asked friends to make a donation to Regain, the spinal injury charity.

The chapel at Bridwell, with its twin herds of red and fallow deer grazing in the 140-acre park, was bedecked with flowers. 

Nine singers from Bristol’s Teachers Rock gospel choir added another distinctly a la mode touch to the service, which began with Penny escorting her ex-husband up the chapel aisle.

Guests then moved on to the orangery for a dinner of monkfish, and speeches followed by dancing.

So far, so normal — but elsewhere there were some subtle differences from the traditional marriage ceremony. There was no cake to cut but instead a tiered collection of their favourite cheeses. Nor are there plans for either man to change his name.

‘I suppose if we had met ten years ago a civil partnership would have been nice, but now that marriage between a man and a man is legal it seems the right thing to do,’ says Lord Ivar.

‘I have had the whole marriage thing — and been very happy — but James hasn’t, so I see it as a validation of my love for him.’

To the surprise of many — including himself, one suspects — Ivar has taken coming out in his stride.

‘Being a Mountbatten was never a problem,’ he said.

The great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma has the photographs to remind him of his place in royal society.

The pictures show him at royal weddings and christenings, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace and alongside the Queen on the Royal Yacht Britannia. 

Now a new set of photographs is going up in the drawing room — not of master and mistress but of master and master.

the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten is set to marry his partner james coyle.

Fresh off the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding last month, the British Royal family is gearing up for another historic set of nuptials in the form of its first ever same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s third cousin once removed who came out as gay in September 2016, has announced his engagement to airline cabin services director James Coyle, 56.

The couple are set to wed in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s country estate in Devon later this year – and Lord Mountbatten, 55, told the MailOnline that the engagement marks the end of a "real journey".

"Being a Mountbatten was never the problem," the great-great grandson of Queen Victoria says. "It was the generation into which I was born.

"When I was growing up, it was known as ‚the love that dare not speak its name‘, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.

He continues: "Coming out" is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point."

Lord Ivar has three children with his ex-wife Penelope Thompson, who he wed in 1994 before divorcing in 2011. He told her he was bisexual before they married, but the pair later split as the secret of his sexuality began to take a toll on their replationship.

Penelope is supportive of Lord Ivar’s new relationship and even plans to give her ex-husband away at the wedding – a gesture first suggested by their daughters.

"It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched", she says.

She goes on: "What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he ‚came out‘. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

‚Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder… He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‚out‘ he’s a completely different person.

"I said to James this morning, ‚I don’t think I’ve ever felt as happy as I do right now‘," he says.

"I’m proud too. Finally I am able to love myself and the reason this marriage is acceptable to all of us, particularly our lovely daughters, is because of the character of James, the nature of the beast — the gorgeous beast."

‚low morals‘

More is known about Edwina’s extra-marital affairs, but in the 75-year-old dossier, an aristocratic source close to them, interviewed by the FBI in the 1940s, described them as “persons of extremely low morals”.

British historian Andrew Lownie used freedom of information laws to source the files, and quotes them in his new biography of the famous couple.

Another source in the FBI files claimed that Mountbatten’s private life made him “an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations.”

In Lownie’s book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Ron Perks, who was Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, also breaks his silence.

He tells how Mountbatten had one favoured destination, the Red House near Rabat, which “was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers”, which he had not realised at the time.

Homesexual acts were banned in the UK until 1967, and many memos about Mountbatten’s sexuality have been edited or destroyed since.

Lord mountbatten ‚was a homosexual with a lust for young boys‘ claims secret fbi dossier compiled by agents seeking dirt on british statesmen during world war two and the suez crisis

Published: 08:31, 18 August 2019 | Updated: 14:47, 18 August 2019

Prince Charles‘ uncle and valued mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‚homosexual with a perversion for young boys‘, according to a secret dossier compiled by the FBI.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs.

One source said Mountbatten’s penchant for young men made him ‚an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations‘. 

The files paint a very different picture of the last viceroy of India – who was hailed as a war hero who led allied efforts in southeast Asia before he was assassinated in 1979 by an IRA bomb.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina (pictured in their younger days) as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs

It is not known why agents began compiling the dossier, but the FBI has long been known to keep compromising material on high-profile figures, most famously Martin Luther King.

The 75-year-old FBI documents were obtained through a freedom of information request by British historian Andrew Lownie, who has written a biography of the couple. 

In the book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Mountbatten’s former driver Ron Perks reveals that one of his boss’s favourite destinations was ‚an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers‘ called the Red House near Rabat.

Agents began compiling the file, which spans more than three decades, in February 1944, shortly after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. 

Following his appointment, the FBI interviewed Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, about another matter, and she brought up Mountbatten, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‚She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. 

‚She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. 

‚In Lady Decies‘ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.‘

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‚appears to have no special motive in making the above statements‘.

Agents opened more files on Mountbatten after World War II when he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Rumours about his personality swirled following his death, fulled by his comment: ‚Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds‘ (the couple pictured together)

But the FBI’s interest in Mountbatten peaked around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956. 

Rumours about Mountbatten’s sexuality have long swirled following his death 40 years ago.

The royal kept a large group of gay friends, including Noël Coward, Terence Rattigan, Ivor Novello and Tom Driberg, who reportedly referred to him as ‚Mountbottom‘. 

Lownie’s new book, to be published on Thursday, contains an interview with Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s.

Daly claims: ‚Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.‘

Lord mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive red house is given an airing by the historian andrew lownie in a revealing new book. but did the elusive red house brothel truly exist in rabat?

Lord Mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive Red House is given an airing by the historian Andrew Lownie in a revealing new book. But did the elusive Red House brothel truly exist in Rabat?

The Rabat Red House that served as a secret gay brothel attended by Lord Mountbatten exists no more with the only remnant being a foundation rock.

The building was mentioned in a yet to be published biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

Although Lownie’s investigation sheds little light on where the house is, research undertaken by MaltaToday points to a site in Rabat, just off the Roman Villa.

The building is no longer there and the only remnants of the Red House appear to be a red foundation rock and the name of the street, Red Tower Street.

Research for the biography unveils that the decorated war hero and uncle to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, used to frequent a gay brothel in Rabat during his time in Malta between 1950 and 1954.

Lownie describes this as the Red House, and quoting his source, Lownie told MaltaToday that The Red House functioned as “an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers.”

He said that Lord Mountbatten’s former chauffeur in Malta, now in his nineties, said that Mountbatten used his own personal car to get to the Rabat brothel.

The driver, Ron Perks, was once asked by Mountbatten to take him to this fabled house and he had acceded to the request.

“I found [the driver] from an interview in a newspaper cutting in East Anglia… and went to see him. During the course of the interview, he decided to tell me these things. He’s a very nice, serious, old school soldier,” Lownie said.

“It was an isolated, baronial-style building with a flat roof. One day as we were driving along, Mountbatten asked if I knew the Red House. I said I did and he asked if I would take him there, which I did. I never dropped him there, but he had his own car which he used often. He wouldn’t have asked me for nothing. I didn’t know what it was and only learnt after I came out of the service that it was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers. You’re taught to keep out of trouble in the Navy and I’ve never said a word about the incident until now,” Perks told Lownie.

In a chapter of Lownie’s book called ‘Rumours’, the biographer retells stories he heard about Mountbatten’s exploits in Malta.

“People told me stories about [Mountbatten] being invited on picnics in Malta and it was clearly a sexual invitation. There was also an affair with a woman in Malta but which was covered up. I wasn’t able to get anyone to speak on record about it. I think most of them didn’t want to say anything because of their loyalty towards him,” Lownie said.

Back in May 2018, Lownie used the Times of Malta to ask for any knowledge of The Red House by publishing a call for bear-magazine.com we reached out to him he said that that call was quite fruitless.

“I tried to locate [the house] and spoke to several people in Malta… tried various forums but with no luck. My source is in his nineties and was remembering back 70 years but he was pretty adamant about The Red House,” he said.

There is a red house, il-Palazz l-Aħmar, in the area known as Landrijiet in the outskirts of Rabat, today housing the restaurant Rogantino’bear-magazine.com its owner, Tony Grech, a history buff, insisted the Red House frequented by Lord Mountbatten was inside Rabat proper. “The Red House you’re looking for is close to the Roman Villa but it’s not there anymore. It has since been turned into a block of flats,” he told MaltaToday.

Grech’s claim was corroborated by an elderly acquaintance of Mountbatten – in Malta – who said the Red House was close to a drinking spot for horses.

Pictures of prominent photographers at the time, like Alfred Vella Gera and Richard Ellis do not seem to have documented The RedHouse.

Postcard collections compiled by the forensic expert Anthony Abela Medici do not feature the elusive house either, who said he was unaware of a red house on Red Tower Street.

Tony Grech and other sources told MaltaToday that the Red House belonged to the Von Brockdorff family, and at the time was used as a ‘party house’ by the British navy. The Von Brockdorffs eventually sold it and moved to Iklin, Grech suggested.

While he could not confirm the existence of a gay brothel in Rabat, Joseph Carmel Chetcuti, author of Queer Mediterranean Memories – a query history of Malta –said that Rabat was “quite gay friendly” at the time of Mountbatten.

“All I know is that [Mountbatten] used to go horse-riding and give young teenage boys a ride on the horse in Marsa… he used to hold them very close to him,” Chetcuti claimed.

Rumours of Lord Mountbatten and his Edwina’s sexual promiscuity have become part of the legend of the Mountbattens. But Lownie’s unearthing of the FBI files confirm the reputation of his alleged homosexuality to have been earned by Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin.Mountbatten himself had admitted later in life that he and his wife had spent “all [their] married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

He never confirmed, however, his interest in young men, and the story of the Red House in Rabat still proves elusive and largely based on hearsay.

Lownie told MaltaToday that he had encountered a 2002 Daily Express article which told the story of a possible illegitimate child of Lord Mountbatten, Andrew Guy, who was the adoptive son of a leading telegraphist — who served on some of the same ships as Lord Mountbatten – and a nurse to Lord Mountbatten’s daughters at Casa Medina in Malta.

The story seems to have not been followed up since that time and while Guy asked for Lord Mountbatten’s DNA for analysis, nothing else was reported.

Mountbatten was an admiral in the Royal Navy and served as Supreme Allied Commander, South East Command during the second World War. He also held the post of Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the NATO military Committee. He was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack on his private boat, in Mullaghmore in Ireland, in August 1979.

El tío favorito del príncipe carlos era, según una nueva biografía, bisexual y aficionado a los jóvenes militares. “pasamos nuestro matrimonio metiéndonos en las camas de otros”, llegó a afirmar

De lord Louis Mountbatten, el estimado mentor del príncipe Carlos de Inglaterra en su juventud, ha quedado para los británicos el recuerdo terrible de su asesinato por el IRA en 1979último virrey de la Indiadel imperio y sellar la independencia del subcontinente.

A las puertas del 40º aniversario de su muerte —que se cumple hoy—, el pasado jueves salió a la venta un libro que se ha atrevido a adentrarse en una faceta privada más indiscreta del personaje, que relata los avatares de su matrimonio abierto con lady Edwina y, por primera vez, descubre la afición del aristócrata y diplomático por chicos muy jóvenes. El autor, Andrew Lownie, sustenta la información en archivos desclasificados del FBI estadounidense.

Las revelaciones que inserta el título Los Mountbatten: their lives and loves (sus vidas y amores) van a tocar una fibra sensible de la familia real inglesa: un miembro de la nutrida prole de bisnietos de la reina Victoria, además de tío materno del duque Felipe de Edimburgo —el marido de Isabel II— y tío abuelo del príncipe Carlos, hoy heredero de la corona británica. El pariente al que todos apodaban Dickie, una personalidad de arrollador atractivo, fue consejero informal pero privilegiado de la actual monarca inglesa en los primeros años de su reinado. Y, más tarde, una suerte de figura paterna para su primogénito, Carlos.

“Pasamos nuestra vida matrimonial metiéndonos cada uno en las camas de otros”, llegó a admitir lord Mountbatten en un momento de debilidad y como resumen de su matrimonio con Edwina Ashley, también aristócrata y heredera de una ingente fortuna. Se casaron en 1922 y, a los dos años, emprendieron rumbo a Nueva York en compañía del entonces príncipe de Gales, el futuro y efímero rey Eduardo VIII, que entregó el trono supuestamente por el amor de Wallis Simpson. Entonces Louis se puso enfermo y su mujer no quiso que aquella amigdalitis le aguara la fiesta. A lo largo de la travesía, flirteó noche tras noche con jóvenes atraídos por una mujer guapa y rica, pero solo tras su desembarco estadounidense recabó al primer amante. Le siguieron muchos más.

Hasta aquí el libro no presenta grandes novedades sobre la historiografía oficiosa de una pareja que acabó cerrando un pacto para capear el escándalo que se cernía sobre la casa de los Windsor: Edwina apoyaría a su marido en su carrera y a cambio cada uno se labraría sus propias aventuras sexuales. La promiscuidad de ella llegó a ser objeto de algunos artículos que consiguieron superar la férrea censura de aquellos tiempos. Y que tuvieron su pico cuando una columnista británica aventuró que había entablado relaciones con un hombre “de color”, el intérprete Paul Robeson, aupado al éxito gracias a su Otelo en el West End. Se daba por hecho que lord Mountbatten también dormía en otros lechos, pero en la época aquello no se le tenía en cuenta.

Otros rumores, más soterrados, sobre la supuesta bisexualidad de Dickie siempre toparon con el bloqueo del establishment. Las relaciones gais estaban penadas entonces con la cárcel. Algunos de los documentos secretos recopilados por los servicios de inteligencia estadounidenses a lo largo de tres décadas son ahora recogidos en un libro que le atribuye una especial debilidad por los hombres jóvenes, y en especial los uniformados.

“Esa perversión”, sostenía la baronesa Decies, amiga de la reina madre, en sus contactos con el FBI, “le incapacita para cualquier clase de operación militar”, según reza uno de los pocos archivos que no acabaron destruidos. El chófer de lord Mountbatten en su consiguiente destino en Malta también confirmó sus frecuentes visitas a un burdel gay frecuentado por oficiales de la marina. El relato del libro incluye posteriores testimonios de los años sesenta y setenta sobre las artes seductoras del aristócrata centradas en oficiales y algún marinero, todos ellos muy jóvenes.

El libro sostiene que también hubo muchas mujeres en su vida, entre ellas la estrella hollywoodense Shirley MacLaine, y que las andanzas del lord no iban a la zaga de las de Edwina. Pero hasta ahora ella siempre había sido el foco de su disfuncional matrimonio. Un capítulo especial en la vida de lady Mountbatten fue su estrecha relación con el futuro fundador de la India independiente, Jawaharlal Nehru, cuando él era primer ministro y ella ejercía de esposa del último gobernador británico. Un secreto a voces. “Nehru era un viudo que estaba solo en la cúspide del poder, y mi madre se convirtió en su confidente”, confirmaba hace doce años en otro libro la hija menor de los Mountbatten, Pamela (Hicks es su apellido de casada). Siempre ha quedado en el aire si se trató de un amor platónico por ambas partes o si hubo algo más.

Edwina murió en 1960, dejando tras de sí una reputación de mujer disoluta para los cerrados parámetros de la época. Las variadas aficiones sexuales de Louis fueron en cambio enterradas bajo un código de silencio. Y solo han salido a la luz cuatro décadas después de que estallara una bomba colocada por los terroristas en el barco en el que navegaba por aguas cercanas al Ulster. Tenía 79 años y una reputación impoluta.

26. washing his hands

After the war, Mountbatten became Viceroy to India. That country only recently won its independence from the British empire, and Mountbatten’s job was to make the transition from colonial property to independent nation as seamless as possible.

This was no easy task. India was on the verge of civil war, divided between followers of Jawaharlal Nehru (who was also, awkwardly, Mountbatten’s wife’s boyfriend), who wanted a united, Hindu-led India, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who wanted a separate Muslim state. Rather than risk England’s involvement, Mountbatten insisted on granting India independence a.s.a.p.

40. his secret shame

The Baroness was not the only one to level allegations at Mountbatten. Mountbatten’s former driver revealed that he would frequently deliver Mountbatten to a gay brothel in Morocco. Another driver admitted to bringing boys as young as 12 to Mountbatten’s home. One male sex worker in England claims that the royal was one of his clients. He also said that Mountbatten preferred young men in uniform.

be careful: premium does not include xl on the website

Two days ago I got a 3 months Premium subscription, thinking my account would also be Premium on the GayRoyal-website. But that’s not true! Go to bear-magazine.com and buy an XL membership cause that also includes Premium in the app. It’s almost the same price as Premium by itself. And Premium in the app offers very little options. So beware.

Gayroyal und sein ruf – was verbirgt sich hinter dem image?

GayRoyal gehört definitiv zu den bekannteren Seiten der Szene. Sicherlich hat jeder Gay bereits von dem entsprechenden Angebot gehört. Besonders charakteristisch: die Seite galt bzw. gilt für viele als etwas „schmuddeliger“ als viele Seiten der Konkurrenz.

Häufig wird sie in direkten Bezug zu GayRomeo gesetzt und schneidet hier entsprechend ab. Hierbei sollte jedoch nicht vergessen werden, dass „schmuddelig“ nicht zwangsläufig „schlecht“ bedeutet. Die Zielgruppe ist jedoch definitiv eine andere.

Einige User schrieben (im Rahmen verschiedener Erfahrungsberichte im Internet) über Probleme mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen bear-magazine.com hier gilt jedoch wieder, dass der Zufriedenheitsfaktor zu einem hohen Maße von der individuellen Einstellung abhängig ist. Wer beispielsweise kein Problem mit einer vergleichsweise schlichten Menüführung hat und schnelle Abenteuer bevorzugt, dürfte mit GayRoyal nach wie vor auf seine Kosten kommen.

Vor allem mit Hinblick auf die Tatsache, dass sich in den letzten Wochen einige User ohnehin darüber beschwert haben, dass „ihr“ Gayromeo zum Schlechten hin verändert wurde, dürfte sich hier demnächst einiges tun.

Winging it

Son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, Lord Ivar has admitted that even his mother Janet, 81, supports him fully – saying everyone should ‚try everything once‘.

Meanwhile, Prince William recently said that it would be ‚absolutely fine‘ if any of his children came out as gay, saying he would ’support any decision they make‘.

And the Prince also made history back in 2016 when he appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

gear up for the first ever same-sex royal wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic event. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a gay wedding. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

“It was the girls’ idea,” she explained in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew, going into her marriage with Lord Ivar, that he identified as bisexual.

“What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun,” she said. “Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret, it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out, he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” Lord Ivar explained. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

Wer nutzt gayroyal? gibt es eine bestimmte zielgruppe?

Vielleicht auch aufgrund der Tatsache, dass es sich bei GayRoyal um einen absoluten Klassiker der Gay Szene handelt, tummeln sich hier – gerade im Vergleich zu anderen Seiten – oft (jedoch nicht nur) ältere User.

Grundlegend gab es hier auch nicht wirklich viele Änderungen mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen Nutzerkomfort. Die Menüführung wirkt einfach, bietet jedoch auch dementsprechend keine größeren Überraschungen oder Effekte.

Bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com – mit fokus auf chat und transparenz

Viele Gays ärgern sich beim Chatten über einen Mangel an Transparenz. Besonders nervig: das virtuelle „Gegenüber“ hat sich gegen das Hochladen eines Profilbildes entschieden oder schickt direkt ein „Dick-Pic“. Je nach individuellem Chatgrund kommen diese Vorgehensweisen nur selten gut an.

Seiten wie bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com setzen exakt an dieser Stelle an. Hier chatten viele User mit Bild. Gleichzeitig steht häufig ein Austausch auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen im Fokus. Der Anspruch der Nutzer ist dementsprechend hoch.

Wahrscheinlich ist es dieser positive Ruf, der nun dafür sorgt, dass diese Seiten – nach der Umstellung von GayRomeo und der Gestaltung bzw. den Inhalten von GayRoyal – sich einer so großen Beliebtheit erfreuen. Gay Chats sind schon lange nicht mehr alternativlos. User haben die Möglichkeit sich – je nach Seite auch im ersten Schritt kostenlos – einen persönlichen Eindruck vom Verhalten der User zu machen. Hier zeigt sich in der Regel schnell, inwieweit die betreffende Seite dafür geschaffen sein könnte, die eigenen Flirtambitionen zu unterstützen.

Zu platte Themen oder ein Hang zum Versenden von Nacktbildern werden hier schnell aufgedeckt. Gays, die sich auf der ernsthaften Suche nach einem festen Partner befinden, dürften hier abgeschreckt werden. Auch Schwule, die gerade erst ihr Coming Out hinter sich haben, suchen gegebenenfalls einen Chatpartner, mit dem sie sowohl reden als auch flirten können. Exakt an dieser Stelle kommen Seiten wie bear-magazine.com ins Spiel.

Gayromeo, gayroyal oder andere? eigene erfahrungen als basis für die richtige entscheidung

Der Chat Alltag in der Gay Szene zeigt, dass es auf der Suche nach der „perfekten Seite“ unerlässlich ist, seine eigenen Erfahrungen zu sammeln.

Berichte bzw. Erfahrungsberichte aus dem Internet können dabei helfen, sich einen ersten Eindruck über:

zu machen. Dennoch sollte hier nie zu vorschnell geurteilt werden. Denn: wer sagt einem Nutzer, dass er nicht auch in einer als „schmuddeligem Chat“ verrufenen Variante die „Liebe seines Lebens“ finden könnte?

Daher gilt es, auszutesten und sich gleichzeitig auch immer über die passenden Alternativen zu GayRoyal und Co. zu informieren. Wer offen bleibt und seine Möglichkeiten nutzt, erkennt schnell, dass das Chatten vor einem ersten Date mindestens ebenso wichtig ist, wie die richtigen Worte zum richtigen Zeitpunkt.

The first same-sex royal wedding has taken place – a historic occasion for the monarchy.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and his partner James Coyle married over the weekend, after announcing in June that they would be tying the knot.

The pair, who have been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016, reportedly exchanged vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon in front of 60 family and friends, according to the .

In september of 2016, lord ivar mountbatten, the queen’s cousin, came out as gay. and now he has announced that he is due to get married.

At the time of his coming out, Lord Mountbatten told the Mail on Sunday about his long-term relationship with James Coyle, an airline cabin services director, and the happiness he had found.

“Being a Mountbatten was never the problem,” he told the paper, “It was the generation into which I was born. When I was growing up, it was known as ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.”

Speaking to the MailOnline, Lord Mountbatten said: “All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Lord Mountbatten also confirmed that he had received a full blessing from the Royal Family. The wedding itself is due to take place later in the Summer, in Lord Mountbatten’s private chapel on his country estate in Devon.

In the article, Lord Mountbatten confirmed that it was him who was pushing for the marriage. “‘I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married,” he said.

He continued, saying: “‘For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”

Before he came out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Penny Thompson, although the couple divorced in 2011. However, showing that there is no bad blood between the couple, Penny will be the person walking Lord Mountbatten down the aisle.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said. She also mentioned how her and James had began getting on within “ten seconds” of meeting each other.

She further added: “What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

“‘Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Even though the MailOnline is associated with The Daily Mail, which is known to be quite homophobic, the majority of the comments on the article were incredibly supportive.

“Love is Love. Wishing them all the best especially the wife who certainly has a halo above her head in my estimation,” said one. Another said: “Heartening to read about such wonderful relationships and the understanding all round.”

And back in April it was found that nearly three quarters of British people didn’t object to a same-sex royal wedding, and that two-thirds were supportive of the idea.

First gay

When media have they finished discussing the wedding of Prince Harry with American actress Megan Markle, the royal family is again at the center of attention. And again because of the wedding! This time 55-year-old cousin of Queen Elizabeth II Lord Ivar Mountbatten married his beloved, 56-year-old man, James Coyle. It is noteworthy that this is the first gay wedding in the royal family.

Lord ivar is a divorcee

Lord Ivar Mountbatten was previously married to a woman named Penny, with whom he had three daughters. He reportedly told Penny before their engagement that he was bisexual, as reported by E! News.

Among the guests at the wedding, the ex-wife of the Lord was seen along with their three daughters. Despite the fact that they divorced back in 2011, the former spouses remained on good terms. According to the Queen’s brother himself, all 17 years while he lived with his wife, he doubted his sexual orientation, and only a few years ago dared to openly say that he was gay.

In fact, Penny walked Lord Mountbatten down the aisle on his wedding day. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.

British royalty changed their name from Saxa-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to distance themselves from their germanic heritage. Minor Royals such as Mountbatten followed suit with their own surnames. Interesting article and great aim for the site. I wouldn’t want factual errors to undermine this.

Oh! What Evil webs we weave! When we practice to deceive

Oh what a Tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive

There is a full documentary on Youtube about the various sins of the Royal Family. It is so scurrilous that I doubt a lot of it is true, although this bit seems to be. The Edwina-Nehru affair is widely known (there was a movie about it–I think it is called The Last Viceroy), and the bisexual rumors don’t disturb me, but the child porn charges are truly shocking. I must say I am also chagrined that Churchill said that about the Indian people. I think they are lovely people, and I think it was right to relinquish The Raj, but I regret the bloodshed that followed. Still, today India seems to be thriving, despite continued outrages against women. I’ve got a lot of opinions, don’t I?

Especially given Churchill’s atrocious appearance and manners. Ugh! SI tu n’es pas joli, soit poli!!

I see you have opted for ‚rumoured‘ when you have absolutely not proof of any of this, in fact where is the proof? Mountbatten was not well liked by some members of the royal family the Duke and Duchess of Windsor for one.

Mountbatten was extremely close to the Duke of Windsor until 1937 (as you can see from the photo above) I don’t think the Duke ever forgave him for not attending his weeding to Wallace

Well the Duke ear himself a bloody traitor to his nation and Jan an affair with Louis during the empire tours. As for that Yankee harlot and usurper, a pro Nazi bitch. I would never learn to those could say.

No member of the Royal family was present at the Duke’s wedding in France and quite rightly so. That Yankee harlot has never allowed to received by any noble or Royal house in Europe.

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Prince Charles from an early age knew Dickie had it in for him .

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Yes Uncle Dick enouraged Charles with young boys at a hotel on the Buckingham Palace Road

Was Louis Mountbatten the 1st or 2nd cousin of Edward v111 and his brother George v1?

He was second cousin of both Edward VIII and George VI

Lord Mountbatten has been linked to a Major pedophile scandal regarding an Irish school boys

His cousin Edward has being known to be bisexual. There are rumors of his nephew prince Phillips to be also bisexual and pedophile. Charles we know has had homosexual experiences. His closeness to Saville and a pedophile bishop and to his uncle Lord Mountbatten and the unpublished spider notes makes people wonder if Charles is also bisexual and a pedophile or what?

And all the nice strong French lads when he was in France " painting " Yeah painting BOLLOCKS!!

It spells Bad Taste to me, which is the opposite of Gay.

It’s really easy to create stories about the dead since they aren’t here to defend themselves.

Contrary to your insinuation, these "stories" were not created after Lord Mountbatten’s death. All of it was well known during his lifetime. Read a few books to educated yourself about the particulars. I did (your blogger).

All of it was well substantiated or just well publicized by the media ?

Don’t be so lazy, spouting conspiracy theories. Read some books, get the facts before challenging anyone’s comments. Sheesh! — your blogger.

Is there anymore articles that refrenref mountbatton and pedophilia

I really admire this man but cannot imagine him involved in an international paedophile gang using children, that is revolting!!

That’s a bit hard for me to accept too . It’s like accepting Sally Hemmings had Thomas Jefferson’s bastard . Might be true but seems so out of character . Lovers of liberty lost a dear friend that day in 1979 .

You do know that DNA confirmed Jefferson’s mixed descendants? The white and black descendants even met up on tv.

I just watched a documentary on YouTube about this disgusting, creepy pig called "Secrets of the Royals-Lord Mountbatten:Hero or Villian"….I wonder why no mention of the pedophile ring he was rumored to be involved in?? I also wondered if he somehow cleverly murdered his wife, Edwina. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Queen Elizabeth Bowles-Lyon plotted his bear-magazine.com how they hated each other and the fact that Hitler himself is quoted as calling her, the most dangerous woman alive. I put nothing past this disgusting inbred, narcissistic, sociopathic, narcopathic family, as well as other monarchs, emporers, etc. Can’t believe people admire such filthy, morally corrupt slime yet condemn poor people, minorities, homosexuals, those with disabilities etc!

Prince Charles’ mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‘homosexual with a perversion for young boys’, according to unearthed FBI files.

The celebrated war hero, who was the last Viceroy of India, and his wife Edwina Mountbatten were described as ‘persons of extremely low morals’ in intelligence files, which claim both frequently had extramarital affairs.

The 75-year-old FBI documents came out after being obtained through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request made by British historian Andrew Lownie for his new biography The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves.

The files were started in February 1944, following Mountbatten’s appointment as supreme allied commander of southeast Asia.

In one interview on another matter with author and socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, she claimed Mountbatten had a penchant for young men that made him an ‘unfit man to direct any sort of military operations’, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‘She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

‘She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

‘In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.’

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‘appears to have no special motive in making the above statements’.

In the new book, Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s, also claims: ‘Tom [Driberg] said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.’

Rumours of Mountbatten’s homosexuality have circulated for decades, with his group of gay friends allegedly referring to him by the nickname ‘Mountbottom’.

In addition, gossip about his and his wife’s extra lovers have swirled, spurred by his comment: ‘Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.’

It’s not known why FBI agents began putting together the dossier, which spans over more than three decades.

Agents opened further files on Mountbatten – described by Prince Charles as the ‘grandfather I never had’ – after World War II after he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Their interest in the British Navy officer and statesman, who was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack in 1979, reached an all-time high around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956.

The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves will be published on August 22.

Prince Philip’s cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten will be fighting the elements after joining the cast of this year’s Treasure Island with Bear Grylls.

The 56-year-old, who is a member of the extended Royal Family, has previously made history as being the first in the bloodline to be in an open same-sex relationship.

He’s now joining the series in hopes to show a new side of the upper middle class family he lives in, and to chance perceptions of the aristocracy.

He told The Sun: ‘They automatically assume that a lord is going to be about 80 years old, wear tweed suits and act like they’ve stepped out of Downton Abbey.

‘Don’t get me wrong, my upbringing was almost like a real life Downton Abbey, but I don’t think I am like that, I’m an openly gay lord.

Lord Mountbatten married James Coyle last year, and given away by his ex-wife Lady Penny Mountbatten, with whom he has three daughters.

Mountbatten will be fighting for a £100,000 prize fund on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, in scenes set to air later this year.

However, the show almost started with a disaster after Bear Grylls himself was stung by a bee, which he is deathly allergic to, on route to the actual island.

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect”

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

Posted by liamfoley63 in Kingdom of EuropeRoyal MistressRoyal SuccessionRoyal Titles

1st Earl Mountbatten of BurmaAssassinationFirst Sea LordIrish Republican ArmyLady BarbourneLord Louis MountbattenPrince Louis of BattenbergSuez Crisis of 1956Viceroy of IndiaYola Letellier

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

Danielle Garrand is a social media producer and trending reporter for CBS News.

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Ist diese gewährleistet, gilt es, sich mit weiteren Details, wie zum Beispiel:

Auseinanderzusetzen. Schnell wird hier klar, dass es schwerfällt, hier von einer „besten Seite“ zu sprechen. Vielmehr ist es wichtig, dass Seiten wie GayRoyal, bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com zum eigenen Geschmack und den persönlichen Erwartungen passen.

Most of the folks who join this site are looking for adult dating via NSA hookups and casual sex. This means you’re likely to meet plenty of GayRoyal members who want to hook up tonight.

If you’re looking for the best Gay Dating sites, you’ve probably heard of GayRoyal. But you’re here because you want to know whether this could be the right dating site for you. And we want to help you decide. GayRoyal Gay Dating dating offers you a welcoming and safe environment to meet and connect. Above all, you’ll be meeting other people who are looking for the kinds of connections you’re seeking. Read the rest of our reviews for all the info you need to decide if this site or app has what you want in a dating provider.

Gayroyal sign up:

Okay, it’s time to look at how to sign up for GayRoyal. The process to join as a registered user is super simple and fast. Because this site focuses on hookups and casual sex, the amount of info you need to get started is pretty minimal. To register shouldn’t take you more than 5-10 minutes. You’ll start by going to the GayRoyal sign in page. First, select your gender identity and the gender identity or identities of the people you’re hoping to meet. Next, you’ll be asked to share your email address and to pick a unique password to use on the site. You can also choose your GayRoyal username at this point. Of course, there’s a lot to say about how to pick the best username for a hookup site. But we’ve distilled it all into this suggestion. Capture tone and attitude by choosing descriptive words that let other members get to know who you are and what you’re all about.Finally, you’ll need to let the site know where you’re located and what your birthday is. And that’s it! That was literally the entire registration process right there. Now that you have your GayRoyal login, you can sign in and start connecting with local hotties now.

Gayroyal chat:

Okay, your new account is registered and ready to go…and so are you. It’s time to start chatting with some hotties. Most dating sites have a chat feature that lets you get to know the site’s members on a more personal level. But the most modern hookup sites have features like voice and video chat, so you can get to know potential partners a little more intimately. Found someone you want to connect with? Just send out a couple GayRoyal messages to the members you’re most interested in. If you want to see who’s online and ready to chat, it’s super easy to find out. Just use the GayRoyal search feature to scroll through a list of members who match your criteria. Once you find the people you want to connect with, it’s super easy to reach out and start a conversation.

Gayroyal profiles:

So now it’s time to get your profile ready for some action. Start by navigating to the GayRoyal log in page and sign in to your account. We know that this site is all about hookups and casual sex, but that still isn’t an excuse to be sleazy. Use your GayRoyal profile as an opportunity to be your most desirable and attractive self. Most hookup sites will ask you questions to help you find the best possible matches. The GayRoyal questions are pretty concise, so answering all of them is a totally doable task. And yes, we definitely suggest answering all of them. They have to do with your desires, ideals, and bottom lines, so the more information you share, the more compatible your matches will be. We know, filling out your dating site profile isn’t exactly your idea of a good time. But put some effort into yours and we promise it will pay dividends. For the record, a good profile always includes several profile pictures. Imagine you wanted to search GayRoyal for matches and all the profiles you saw only had a single picture? It’s just not the way to get clicks, likes, and messages. Take a little time to feel good about your profile and we promise you won’t regret it.

Gayroyal app:

According to our research, this dating site has an app available for iPhone and Android. The GayRoyal mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it’s more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you’ll be able to access the GayRoyal desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you’ve got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.

Safety:

Let’s start with the biggest question you have: Is GayRoyal safe? Before you dive head first into a new dating site, it’s always a good idea to do some research. This becomes especially necessary when you’re looking at hookup and casual sex sites. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there. We’d also suggest you refer to the GayRoyal safety tips page to see how the site keeps its members safe. If you can’t find a safety page for the site, that might be a red flag right there. If you ever have contact with suspicious people on this dating site, please get in touch with GayRoyal help. Report the incident to help protect you and the site’s other members. We also encourage you to rely on your instincts when interacting with new people on a hookup site. If the encounter starts to feel fishy, go with your gut. The site’s moderators should always be informed of weird stuff happening on their site. So reach out and let them know if you suspect a scam. You can also get in touch with them if you need to cancel GayRoyal membership at any point.

Value for money:

Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is GayRoyal free? It’s very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It’s technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you’re using GayRoyal free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site’s most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That’s right, we’re about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person’s. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you’re interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like GayRoyal, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you’d like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you’re much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success.

Review conclusion:

If you came here hoping to read our GayRoyal reviews, we hope this article was useful. We know you’re interested in hookup and casual sex sites, which means this site would be a good fit on that level. If you’re looking for sexy NSA encounters and casual hookups, this site should for sure be on your radar. And if you’re wondering whether it’s the right site for you, hopefully you feel a little closer to a decision after reading the review. DatingPerfect wants to make sure you get the most out of your online dating experiences. Of course, we can help by providing you with a lot of info about the site in question. But we can also help with GayRoyal promo codes and special offers. We’ll hook you up whenever possible. Ready to try out this site and see if it has what you’ve been looking for?

James coyle verlobung mit lord ivar mountbatten

„Noch bist du kein Lord, Jimmy“, witzelte Lord Ivar Mountbatten in diesem Korkenknall-Post bei Instagram anlässlich der Bekanntgabe der Verlobung mit James Coyle (Foto). 

Peut-on donner le prix Nobel de la paix à la géniale lady Penny Mountbatten, qui se fait photographier avec son ex mari et le futur nouveau mari d’icelui ?Royal family’s first gay wedding: The story of the Queen’s cousin bear-magazine.com via @MailOnline

Two years after he announced he was gay, lord mountbatten, queen elizabeth ii’s cousin and a descendant of the royal family, ties the knot with james coyle.

Not long after Meghan Markle made history in May as the first mixed-race American woman to marry into the British royal family, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, has married James Coyle in what is the monarchy’s first-ever same-sex wedding, Coyle is an airline cabin services director whom Lord Ivar met back in 2014.

The couple has been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016 and exchanged their wedding vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon on last Saturday, the 22nd of September, 2018. The ceremonies lasted throughout the weekend.

Lord Mountbatten, who is also a descendant of Queen Victoria, has three children with his former wife, Penny Mountbatten. His wife and children have been very supportive of her husband’s relationship with Coyle.

The royal family still follows the rules of the Royal Marriages Act passed in 1772, which requires the first six people in the line of succession to receive permission from the ruling monarch before they tie the knot. But because Lord Mountbatten is not in the line of succession, he didn’t require the ruling monarch’s nod.

While most of the royal family wasn’t present for the wedding, the newlyweds celebrated with close family and friends. Taking to Instagram, Lord Ivar Mountbatten said, “Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather.” Thanking his family for their support, he added, “Most importantly, a massive thanks to my three gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened!”

“And finally, the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect…”, the newlywed Lord Mountbatten posted on Instagram.

The couple exchanged customized rings made for them by Milly Maunder and are currently honeymooning in Brazil.

Love = love!

Move over, Meghan Markle and unimportant royal family drama — the first ever gay royal wedding is set to take place this summer, just a few months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s, and right before Princess Eugenie’s nuptials.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten (say that three times fast!), is set to marry his partner, James Coyle in the monarchy’s fist ever gay royal wedding. It’s the first ever same-sex marriage in the family, and it’s certainly historic. Lord Ivar was previously married to his now ex-wife, Penny, before coming out publicly. By the time he came out, he was already deeply in love with James Coyle, and never looked back.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Apr 7, 2018 at 7:06am PDT

In a statement to the , Lord Ivar, “struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 16 year marriage,” and had told his former spouse he was bisexual even before he proposed. His former wife is a true gem, though, because she’s planning to walk Lord Ivar down the aisle — and idea straight from the daughter they share.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Jun 17, 2018 at 4:35pm PDT

If you’re wondering if this gay royal wedding will have as much fanfare as Prince Harry’s — think again. The couple plans to wed in a private chapel on Lord Ivar’s estate in Devon, and party with roughly 100 friends and family members thereafter.

“We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that,” Coyle confessed to Daily Mail. Lord Ivar added that they’ll “probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

Britain’s first gay royal wedding saw lord ivar mountbatten and boyfriend james coyle tie the knot in a ceremony in devon.

Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect……#wedidit #wonderfulday #despitetherain

While Lord Mountbatten and Coyle were able to be legally wed in England, Northern Ireland still remains the only part of the UK without same-sex marriage.

Will queen elizabeth attend the first gay royal wedding?

Penny is set to give her ex-husband away to his new partner at the “small” ceremony.

“It’s just for the girls and close family and friends,” he said. It doesn’t seem like any royals are attending the wedding. Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Rhys-Jones — also known as the Earl and Countess of Essex — are the godparents of Mountbatten’s daughters, but they won’t be able to attend, either.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said. “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

The first gay royal wedding will have a reception for 120 guests with food and music — but no cake. “There won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?” Coyle said.

“We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

Get ready, y’all, because another royal wedding is in the works! And much like Meghan Markle’s nuptials to Prince Harry, it will be groundbreaking. Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is set to become the first royal in history to have a same-sex marriage.

According to , Lord Ivar came out as gay two years ago. Now, the father-of-three daughters— Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — has planned to start a new life with his partner, James Coyle. Fortunately, Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, whom he married 24 years ago, is in full support of the pair’s union.

So much so, that she will be walking Lord Ivar down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," Penny told Daily Mail. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

Penny continued that since Ivar came out, he’s become a much better version of himself. "What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock," Penny continued. "He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

Lord Ivar and James are set to be married this summer. The happy couple will tie the knot in Devon — a stunning coastal county in the southwest of England. We wish them all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world! After all, love is love.

A royal wedding like no other: the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten marries his new husband – after being given away by his ex-wife

Published: 22:26, 23 September 2018 | Updated: 07:26, 24 September 2018

For many a couple it is a long and winding road to the altar. 

For Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a divorced father of three, the path to matrimonial happiness has meant navigating all manner of obstacles that would test the strongest of relationships.

But yesterday, almost exactly two years after coming out as gay, the younger son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, and cousin of the Queen, was marking the first day of his new life — married to a man.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Lord Ivar and his new love James Coyle exchanged rings and vows in front of 60 family and friends including his three proud daughters.

 Never before, surely, has there been a wedding quite like it — the first ever same-sex marriage in the extended Royal Family.

A gospel choir serenaded them, and the toasts from their two best men saw guests raising flutes of Pol Roger, Churchill’s favourite champagne.

Twenty-four years ago, Princess Margaret was among those present at the grandest of ceremonies when Ivar married his wife Penny at the family’s ancestral home in Essex.

There were no royal witnesses for this latest union, solemnised in the private chapel at Bridwell Park — a Grade I-listed mansion near the village of Uffculme in Devon, where Lord and Lady Mountbatten settled and raised their family — and celebrated with a lavish reception in the orangery.

But the goodwill from Ivar’s extended family was flowing. He has received the warmest of congratulations from his lifelong friend Prince Edward, to whose eldest child, Lady Louise, he is godfather. 

The Earl and Countess of Wessex , who are also godparents to his two eldest daughters, were unable to be there.

Edward and Sophie knew of their plans but sadly couldn’t come. ‘Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they were not free,’ said Ivar, ‘but they adore James.’ 

Because Bridwell is used for corporate events and weddings, the date for Ivar and James’s nuptials could not be changed.

‘It was the only weekend in the diary when the house was free,’ says James, an airline cabin services director who will return to work today with a long-haul flight to Rio de Janeiro.

The honeymoon to Greece or Croatia — the destination has still to be decided — has been postponed until later in the year.

But like everything that has happened to this stylish couple, who chose matching velvet smoking jackets for their black-tie wedding, it has been managed with a reassuringly unflappable cool.

It wasn’t, of course, all plain sailing. Ivar’s marriage to Penny finally ran out of steam in 2011 when they let it be known that they had drifted apart.

Then, two years ago, he caused a stir when he confessed to having struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 17-year marriage. In fact, he had known from his teens that he was bisexual. 

‘Penny was aware before we got married . . . that my attraction went both ways,’ he said. ‘She was understanding and I will always be grateful to her.’

Lord Ivar confessed to having struggled with sexuality throughout most of his 17- year marriage and had known from his teens that he was bisexual

He finally admitted he was gay after finding contentment with Glasgow-born James, whom he met in 2014 in the upmarket Swiss alpine resort of Verbier, where Ivar and his family have always skied.

The outcome was happier than either man dared hope. Remarkably, the revelation did not destroy Ivar’s relationship with ex-wife Penny but strengthened it. 

And when their girls Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and 16-year-old Luli suggested she give their father away, the unconventional idea took root.

The weekend-long events began with a welcome dinner for 30 hosted by the couple on Friday night. 

The ceremony itself began on Saturday afternoon, by which time another 30 guests had arrived. None brought gifts. Instead, James and Ivar asked friends to make a donation to Regain, the spinal injury charity.

The chapel at Bridwell, with its twin herds of red and fallow deer grazing in the 140-acre park, was bedecked with flowers. 

Nine singers from Bristol’s Teachers Rock gospel choir added another distinctly a la mode touch to the service, which began with Penny escorting her ex-husband up the chapel aisle.

Guests then moved on to the orangery for a dinner of monkfish, and speeches followed by dancing.

So far, so normal — but elsewhere there were some subtle differences from the traditional marriage ceremony. There was no cake to cut but instead a tiered collection of their favourite cheeses. Nor are there plans for either man to change his name.

‘I suppose if we had met ten years ago a civil partnership would have been nice, but now that marriage between a man and a man is legal it seems the right thing to do,’ says Lord Ivar.

‘I have had the whole marriage thing — and been very happy — but James hasn’t, so I see it as a validation of my love for him.’

To the surprise of many — including himself, one suspects — Ivar has taken coming out in his stride.

‘Being a Mountbatten was never a problem,’ he said.

The great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma has the photographs to remind him of his place in royal society.

The pictures show him at royal weddings and christenings, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace and alongside the Queen on the Royal Yacht Britannia. 

Now a new set of photographs is going up in the drawing room — not of master and mistress but of master and master.

the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten is set to marry his partner james coyle.

Fresh off the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding last month, the British Royal family is gearing up for another historic set of nuptials in the form of its first ever same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s third cousin once removed who came out as gay in September 2016, has announced his engagement to airline cabin services director James Coyle, 56.

The couple are set to wed in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s country estate in Devon later this year – and Lord Mountbatten, 55, told the MailOnline that the engagement marks the end of a "real journey".

"Being a Mountbatten was never the problem," the great-great grandson of Queen Victoria says. "It was the generation into which I was born.

"When I was growing up, it was known as ‚the love that dare not speak its name‘, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.

He continues: "Coming out" is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point."

Lord Ivar has three children with his ex-wife Penelope Thompson, who he wed in 1994 before divorcing in 2011. He told her he was bisexual before they married, but the pair later split as the secret of his sexuality began to take a toll on their replationship.

Penelope is supportive of Lord Ivar’s new relationship and even plans to give her ex-husband away at the wedding – a gesture first suggested by their daughters.

"It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched", she says.

She goes on: "What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he ‚came out‘. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

‚Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder… He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‚out‘ he’s a completely different person.

"I said to James this morning, ‚I don’t think I’ve ever felt as happy as I do right now‘," he says.

"I’m proud too. Finally I am able to love myself and the reason this marriage is acceptable to all of us, particularly our lovely daughters, is because of the character of James, the nature of the beast — the gorgeous beast."

‚low morals‘

More is known about Edwina’s extra-marital affairs, but in the 75-year-old dossier, an aristocratic source close to them, interviewed by the FBI in the 1940s, described them as “persons of extremely low morals”.

British historian Andrew Lownie used freedom of information laws to source the files, and quotes them in his new biography of the famous couple.

Another source in the FBI files claimed that Mountbatten’s private life made him “an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations.”

In Lownie’s book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Ron Perks, who was Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, also breaks his silence.

He tells how Mountbatten had one favoured destination, the Red House near Rabat, which “was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers”, which he had not realised at the time.

Homesexual acts were banned in the UK until 1967, and many memos about Mountbatten’s sexuality have been edited or destroyed since.

Lord mountbatten ‚was a homosexual with a lust for young boys‘ claims secret fbi dossier compiled by agents seeking dirt on british statesmen during world war two and the suez crisis

Published: 08:31, 18 August 2019 | Updated: 14:47, 18 August 2019

Prince Charles‘ uncle and valued mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‚homosexual with a perversion for young boys‘, according to a secret dossier compiled by the FBI.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs.

One source said Mountbatten’s penchant for young men made him ‚an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations‘. 

The files paint a very different picture of the last viceroy of India – who was hailed as a war hero who led allied efforts in southeast Asia before he was assassinated in 1979 by an IRA bomb.

It is not known why agents began compiling the dossier, but the FBI has long been known to keep compromising material on high-profile figures, most famously Martin Luther King.

The 75-year-old FBI documents were obtained through a freedom of information request by British historian Andrew Lownie, who has written a biography of the couple. 

In the book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Mountbatten’s former driver Ron Perks reveals that one of his boss’s favourite destinations was ‚an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers‘ called the Red House near Rabat.

Agents began compiling the file, which spans more than three decades, in February 1944, shortly after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. 

Following his appointment, the FBI interviewed Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, about another matter, and she brought up Mountbatten, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‚She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. 

‚She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. 

‚In Lady Decies‘ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.‘

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‚appears to have no special motive in making the above statements‘.

Agents opened more files on Mountbatten after World War II when he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Rumours about his personality swirled following his death, fulled by his comment: ‚Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds‘ (the couple pictured together)

But the FBI’s interest in Mountbatten peaked around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956. 

Rumours about Mountbatten’s sexuality have long swirled following his death 40 years ago.

The royal kept a large group of gay friends, including Noël Coward, Terence Rattigan, Ivor Novello and Tom Driberg, who reportedly referred to him as ‚Mountbottom‘. 

Lownie’s new book, to be published on Thursday, contains an interview with Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s.

Daly claims: ‚Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.‘

Tom Driberg, a Labour party MP who was openly gay, was a friend of Louis Mountbatten. Lownie’s book quotes an associate of Driberg as saying, “Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms—handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.”

Lord Mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive Red House is given an airing by the historian Andrew Lownie in a revealing new book. But did the elusive Red House brothel truly exist in Rabat?

The Rabat Red House that served as a secret gay brothel attended by Lord Mountbatten exists no more with the only remnant being a foundation rock.

The building was mentioned in a yet to be published biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

Although Lownie’s investigation sheds little light on where the house is, research undertaken by MaltaToday points to a site in Rabat, just off the Roman Villa.

The building is no longer there and the only remnants of the Red House appear to be a red foundation rock and the name of the street, Red Tower Street.

Research for the biography unveils that the decorated war hero and uncle to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, used to frequent a gay brothel in Rabat during his time in Malta between 1950 and 1954.

Lownie describes this as the Red House, and quoting his source, Lownie told MaltaToday that The Red House functioned as “an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers.”

He said that Lord Mountbatten’s former chauffeur in Malta, now in his nineties, said that Mountbatten used his own personal car to get to the Rabat brothel.

The driver, Ron Perks, was once asked by Mountbatten to take him to this fabled house and he had acceded to the request.

“I found [the driver] from an interview in a newspaper cutting in East Anglia… and went to see him. During the course of the interview, he decided to tell me these things. He’s a very nice, serious, old school soldier,” Lownie said.

“It was an isolated, baronial-style building with a flat roof. One day as we were driving along, Mountbatten asked if I knew the Red House. I said I did and he asked if I would take him there, which I did. I never dropped him there, but he had his own car which he used often. He wouldn’t have asked me for nothing. I didn’t know what it was and only learnt after I came out of the service that it was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers. You’re taught to keep out of trouble in the Navy and I’ve never said a word about the incident until now,” Perks told Lownie.

In a chapter of Lownie’s book called ‘Rumours’, the biographer retells stories he heard about Mountbatten’s exploits in Malta.

“People told me stories about [Mountbatten] being invited on picnics in Malta and it was clearly a sexual invitation. There was also an affair with a woman in Malta but which was covered up. I wasn’t able to get anyone to speak on record about it. I think most of them didn’t want to say anything because of their loyalty towards him,” Lownie said.

Back in May 2018, Lownie used the Times of Malta to ask for any knowledge of The Red House by publishing a call for bear-magazine.com we reached out to him he said that that call was quite fruitless.

“I tried to locate [the house] and spoke to several people in Malta… tried various forums but with no luck. My source is in his nineties and was remembering back 70 years but he was pretty adamant about The Red House,” he said.

There is a red house, il-Palazz l-Aħmar, in the area known as Landrijiet in the outskirts of Rabat, today housing the restaurant Rogantino’bear-magazine.com its owner, Tony Grech, a history buff, insisted the Red House frequented by Lord Mountbatten was inside Rabat proper. “The Red House you’re looking for is close to the Roman Villa but it’s not there anymore. It has since been turned into a block of flats,” he told MaltaToday.

Grech’s claim was corroborated by an elderly acquaintance of Mountbatten – in Malta – who said the Red House was close to a drinking spot for horses.

Pictures of prominent photographers at the time, like Alfred Vella Gera and Richard Ellis do not seem to have documented The RedHouse.

Postcard collections compiled by the forensic expert Anthony Abela Medici do not feature the elusive house either, who said he was unaware of a red house on Red Tower Street.

Tony Grech and other sources told MaltaToday that the Red House belonged to the Von Brockdorff family, and at the time was used as a ‘party house’ by the British navy. The Von Brockdorffs eventually sold it and moved to Iklin, Grech suggested.

While he could not confirm the existence of a gay brothel in Rabat, Joseph Carmel Chetcuti, author of Queer Mediterranean Memories – a query history of Malta –said that Rabat was “quite gay friendly” at the time of Mountbatten.

“All I know is that [Mountbatten] used to go horse-riding and give young teenage boys a ride on the horse in Marsa… he used to hold them very close to him,” Chetcuti claimed.

Rumours of Lord Mountbatten and his Edwina’s sexual promiscuity have become part of the legend of the Mountbattens. But Lownie’s unearthing of the FBI files confirm the reputation of his alleged homosexuality to have been earned by Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin.Mountbatten himself had admitted later in life that he and his wife had spent “all [their] married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

He never confirmed, however, his interest in young men, and the story of the Red House in Rabat still proves elusive and largely based on hearsay.

Lownie told MaltaToday that he had encountered a 2002 Daily Express article which told the story of a possible illegitimate child of Lord Mountbatten, Andrew Guy, who was the adoptive son of a leading telegraphist — who served on some of the same ships as Lord Mountbatten – and a nurse to Lord Mountbatten’s daughters at Casa Medina in Malta.

The story seems to have not been followed up since that time and while Guy asked for Lord Mountbatten’s DNA for analysis, nothing else was reported.

Mountbatten was an admiral in the Royal Navy and served as Supreme Allied Commander, South East Command during the second World War. He also held the post of Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the NATO military Committee. He was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack on his private boat, in Mullaghmore in Ireland, in August 1979.

El tío favorito del príncipe carlos era, según una nueva biografía, bisexual y aficionado a los jóvenes militares. “pasamos nuestro matrimonio metiéndonos en las camas de otros”, llegó a afirmar

De lord Louis Mountbatten, el estimado mentor del príncipe Carlos de Inglaterra en su juventud, ha quedado para los británicos el recuerdo terrible de su asesinato por el IRA en 1979último virrey de la Indiadel imperio y sellar la independencia del subcontinente.

A las puertas del 40º aniversario de su muerte —que se cumple hoy—, el pasado jueves salió a la venta un libro que se ha atrevido a adentrarse en una faceta privada más indiscreta del personaje, que relata los avatares de su matrimonio abierto con lady Edwina y, por primera vez, descubre la afición del aristócrata y diplomático por chicos muy jóvenes. El autor, Andrew Lownie, sustenta la información en archivos desclasificados del FBI estadounidense.

Las revelaciones que inserta el título Los Mountbatten: their lives and loves (sus vidas y amores) van a tocar una fibra sensible de la familia real inglesa: un miembro de la nutrida prole de bisnietos de la reina Victoria, además de tío materno del duque Felipe de Edimburgo —el marido de Isabel II— y tío abuelo del príncipe Carlos, hoy heredero de la corona británica. El pariente al que todos apodaban Dickie, una personalidad de arrollador atractivo, fue consejero informal pero privilegiado de la actual monarca inglesa en los primeros años de su reinado. Y, más tarde, una suerte de figura paterna para su primogénito, Carlos.

“Pasamos nuestra vida matrimonial metiéndonos cada uno en las camas de otros”, llegó a admitir lord Mountbatten en un momento de debilidad y como resumen de su matrimonio con Edwina Ashley, también aristócrata y heredera de una ingente fortuna. Se casaron en 1922 y, a los dos años, emprendieron rumbo a Nueva York en compañía del entonces príncipe de Gales, el futuro y efímero rey Eduardo VIII, que entregó el trono supuestamente por el amor de Wallis Simpson. Entonces Louis se puso enfermo y su mujer no quiso que aquella amigdalitis le aguara la fiesta. A lo largo de la travesía, flirteó noche tras noche con jóvenes atraídos por una mujer guapa y rica, pero solo tras su desembarco estadounidense recabó al primer amante. Le siguieron muchos más.

Hasta aquí el libro no presenta grandes novedades sobre la historiografía oficiosa de una pareja que acabó cerrando un pacto para capear el escándalo que se cernía sobre la casa de los Windsor: Edwina apoyaría a su marido en su carrera y a cambio cada uno se labraría sus propias aventuras sexuales. La promiscuidad de ella llegó a ser objeto de algunos artículos que consiguieron superar la férrea censura de aquellos tiempos. Y que tuvieron su pico cuando una columnista británica aventuró que había entablado relaciones con un hombre “de color”, el intérprete Paul Robeson, aupado al éxito gracias a su Otelo en el West End. Se daba por hecho que lord Mountbatten también dormía en otros lechos, pero en la época aquello no se le tenía en cuenta.

Otros rumores, más soterrados, sobre la supuesta bisexualidad de Dickie siempre toparon con el bloqueo del establishment. Las relaciones gais estaban penadas entonces con la cárcel. Algunos de los documentos secretos recopilados por los servicios de inteligencia estadounidenses a lo largo de tres décadas son ahora recogidos en un libro que le atribuye una especial debilidad por los hombres jóvenes, y en especial los uniformados.

“Esa perversión”, sostenía la baronesa Decies, amiga de la reina madre, en sus contactos con el FBI, “le incapacita para cualquier clase de operación militar”, según reza uno de los pocos archivos que no acabaron destruidos. El chófer de lord Mountbatten en su consiguiente destino en Malta también confirmó sus frecuentes visitas a un burdel gay frecuentado por oficiales de la marina. El relato del libro incluye posteriores testimonios de los años sesenta y setenta sobre las artes seductoras del aristócrata centradas en oficiales y algún marinero, todos ellos muy jóvenes.

El libro sostiene que también hubo muchas mujeres en su vida, entre ellas la estrella hollywoodense Shirley MacLaine, y que las andanzas del lord no iban a la zaga de las de Edwina. Pero hasta ahora ella siempre había sido el foco de su disfuncional matrimonio. Un capítulo especial en la vida de lady Mountbatten fue su estrecha relación con el futuro fundador de la India independiente, Jawaharlal Nehru, cuando él era primer ministro y ella ejercía de esposa del último gobernador británico. Un secreto a voces. “Nehru era un viudo que estaba solo en la cúspide del poder, y mi madre se convirtió en su confidente”, confirmaba hace doce años en otro libro la hija menor de los Mountbatten, Pamela (Hicks es su apellido de casada). Siempre ha quedado en el aire si se trató de un amor platónico por ambas partes o si hubo algo más.

Edwina murió en 1960, dejando tras de sí una reputación de mujer disoluta para los cerrados parámetros de la época. Las variadas aficiones sexuales de Louis fueron en cambio enterradas bajo un código de silencio. Y solo han salido a la luz cuatro décadas después de que estallara una bomba colocada por los terroristas en el barco en el que navegaba por aguas cercanas al Ulster. Tenía 79 años y una reputación impoluta.

26. washing his hands

After the war, Mountbatten became Viceroy to India. That country only recently won its independence from the British empire, and Mountbatten’s job was to make the transition from colonial property to independent nation as seamless as possible.

This was no easy task. India was on the verge of civil war, divided between followers of Jawaharlal Nehru (who was also, awkwardly, Mountbatten’s wife’s boyfriend), who wanted a united, Hindu-led India, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who wanted a separate Muslim state. Rather than risk England’s involvement, Mountbatten insisted on granting India independence a.s.a.p.

40. his secret shame

The Baroness was not the only one to level allegations at Mountbatten. Mountbatten’s former driver revealed that he would frequently deliver Mountbatten to a gay brothel in Morocco. Another driver admitted to bringing boys as young as 12 to Mountbatten’s home. One male sex worker in England claims that the royal was one of his clients. He also said that Mountbatten preferred young men in uniform.

Gayroyal und sein ruf – was verbirgt sich hinter dem image?

GayRoyal gehört definitiv zu den bekannteren Seiten der Szene. Sicherlich hat jeder Gay bereits von dem entsprechenden Angebot gehört. Besonders charakteristisch: die Seite galt bzw. gilt für viele als etwas „schmuddeliger“ als viele Seiten der Konkurrenz.

Häufig wird sie in direkten Bezug zu GayRomeo gesetzt und schneidet hier entsprechend ab. Hierbei sollte jedoch nicht vergessen werden, dass „schmuddelig“ nicht zwangsläufig „schlecht“ bedeutet. Die Zielgruppe ist jedoch definitiv eine andere.

Einige User schrieben (im Rahmen verschiedener Erfahrungsberichte im Internet) über Probleme mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen bear-magazine.com hier gilt jedoch wieder, dass der Zufriedenheitsfaktor zu einem hohen Maße von der individuellen Einstellung abhängig ist. Wer beispielsweise kein Problem mit einer vergleichsweise schlichten Menüführung hat und schnelle Abenteuer bevorzugt, dürfte mit GayRoyal nach wie vor auf seine Kosten kommen.

Vor allem mit Hinblick auf die Tatsache, dass sich in den letzten Wochen einige User ohnehin darüber beschwert haben, dass „ihr“ Gayromeo zum Schlechten hin verändert wurde, dürfte sich hier demnächst einiges tun.

Winging it

Son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, Lord Ivar has admitted that even his mother Janet, 81, supports him fully – saying everyone should ‚try everything once‘.

Meanwhile, Prince William recently said that it would be ‚absolutely fine‘ if any of his children came out as gay, saying he would ’support any decision they make‘.

And the Prince also made history back in 2016 when he appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

gear up for the first ever same-sex royal wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic event. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a gay wedding. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

“It was the girls’ idea,” she explained in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew, going into her marriage with Lord Ivar, that he identified as bisexual.

“What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun,” she said. “Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret, it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out, he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” Lord Ivar explained. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

Wahrscheinlich ist es dieser positive Ruf, der nun dafür sorgt, dass diese Seiten – nach der Umstellung von GayRomeo und der Gestaltung bzw. den Inhalten von GayRoyal – sich einer so großen Beliebtheit erfreuen. Gay Chats sind schon lange nicht mehr alternativlos. User haben die Möglichkeit sich – je nach Seite auch im ersten Schritt kostenlos – einen persönlichen Eindruck vom Verhalten der User zu machen. Hier zeigt sich in der Regel schnell, inwieweit die betreffende Seite dafür geschaffen sein könnte, die eigenen Flirtambitionen zu unterstützen.

Zu platte Themen oder ein Hang zum Versenden von Nacktbildern werden hier schnell aufgedeckt. Gays, die sich auf der ernsthaften Suche nach einem festen Partner befinden, dürften hier abgeschreckt werden. Auch Schwule, die gerade erst ihr Coming Out hinter sich haben, suchen gegebenenfalls einen Chatpartner, mit dem sie sowohl reden als auch flirten können. Exakt an dieser Stelle kommen Seiten wie bear-magazine.com ins Spiel.

Gayromeo, gayroyal oder andere? eigene erfahrungen als basis für die richtige entscheidung

Der Chat Alltag in der Gay Szene zeigt, dass es auf der Suche nach der „perfekten Seite“ unerlässlich ist, seine eigenen Erfahrungen zu sammeln.

Berichte bzw. Erfahrungsberichte aus dem Internet können dabei helfen, sich einen ersten Eindruck über:

zu machen. Dennoch sollte hier nie zu vorschnell geurteilt werden. Denn: wer sagt einem Nutzer, dass er nicht auch in einer als „schmuddeligem Chat“ verrufenen Variante die „Liebe seines Lebens“ finden könnte?

Daher gilt es, auszutesten und sich gleichzeitig auch immer über die passenden Alternativen zu GayRoyal und Co. zu informieren. Wer offen bleibt und seine Möglichkeiten nutzt, erkennt schnell, dass das Chatten vor einem ersten Date mindestens ebenso wichtig ist, wie die richtigen Worte zum richtigen Zeitpunkt.

The first same-sex royal wedding has taken place – a historic occasion for the monarchy.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and his partner James Coyle married over the weekend, after announcing in June that they would be tying the knot.

The pair, who have been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016, reportedly exchanged vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon in front of 60 family and friends, according to the .

In september of 2016, lord ivar mountbatten, the queen’s cousin, came out as gay. and now he has announced that he is due to get married.

At the time of his coming out, Lord Mountbatten told the Mail on Sunday about his long-term relationship with James Coyle, an airline cabin services director, and the happiness he had found.

“Being a Mountbatten was never the problem,” he told the paper, “It was the generation into which I was born. When I was growing up, it was known as ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.”

Speaking to the MailOnline, Lord Mountbatten said: “All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Lord Mountbatten also confirmed that he had received a full blessing from the Royal Family. The wedding itself is due to take place later in the Summer, in Lord Mountbatten’s private chapel on his country estate in Devon.

In the article, Lord Mountbatten confirmed that it was him who was pushing for the marriage. “‘I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married,” he said.

He continued, saying: “‘For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”

Before he came out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Penny Thompson, although the couple divorced in 2011. However, showing that there is no bad blood between the couple, Penny will be the person walking Lord Mountbatten down the aisle.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said. She also mentioned how her and James had began getting on within “ten seconds” of meeting each other.

She further added: “What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

“‘Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Even though the MailOnline is associated with The Daily Mail, which is known to be quite homophobic, the majority of the comments on the article were incredibly supportive.

“Love is Love. Wishing them all the best especially the wife who certainly has a halo above her head in my estimation,” said one. Another said: “Heartening to read about such wonderful relationships and the understanding all round.”

And back in April it was found that nearly three quarters of British people didn’t object to a same-sex royal wedding, and that two-thirds were supportive of the idea.

First gay

When media have they finished discussing the wedding of Prince Harry with American actress Megan Markle, the royal family is again at the center of attention. And again because of the wedding! This time 55-year-old cousin of Queen Elizabeth II Lord Ivar Mountbatten married his beloved, 56-year-old man, James Coyle. It is noteworthy that this is the first gay wedding in the royal family.

Lord ivar is a divorcee

Lord Ivar Mountbatten was previously married to a woman named Penny, with whom he had three daughters. He reportedly told Penny before their engagement that he was bisexual, as reported by E! News.

Among the guests at the wedding, the ex-wife of the Lord was seen along with their three daughters. Despite the fact that they divorced back in 2011, the former spouses remained on good terms. According to the Queen’s brother himself, all 17 years while he lived with his wife, he doubted his sexual orientation, and only a few years ago dared to openly say that he was gay.

In fact, Penny walked Lord Mountbatten down the aisle on his wedding day. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.

British royalty changed their name from Saxa-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to distance themselves from their germanic heritage. Minor Royals such as Mountbatten followed suit with their own surnames. Interesting article and great aim for the site. I wouldn’t want factual errors to undermine this.

Oh! What Evil webs we weave! When we practice to deceive

Oh what a Tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive

There is a full documentary on Youtube about the various sins of the Royal Family. It is so scurrilous that I doubt a lot of it is true, although this bit seems to be. The Edwina-Nehru affair is widely known (there was a movie about it–I think it is called The Last Viceroy), and the bisexual rumors don’t disturb me, but the child porn charges are truly shocking. I must say I am also chagrined that Churchill said that about the Indian people. I think they are lovely people, and I think it was right to relinquish The Raj, but I regret the bloodshed that followed. Still, today India seems to be thriving, despite continued outrages against women. I’ve got a lot of opinions, don’t I?

Especially given Churchill’s atrocious appearance and manners. Ugh! SI tu n’es pas joli, soit poli!!

I see you have opted for ‚rumoured‘ when you have absolutely not proof of any of this, in fact where is the proof? Mountbatten was not well liked by some members of the royal family the Duke and Duchess of Windsor for one.

Mountbatten was extremely close to the Duke of Windsor until 1937 (as you can see from the photo above) I don’t think the Duke ever forgave him for not attending his weeding to Wallace

Well the Duke ear himself a bloody traitor to his nation and Jan an affair with Louis during the empire tours. As for that Yankee harlot and usurper, a pro Nazi bitch. I would never learn to those could say.

No member of the Royal family was present at the Duke’s wedding in France and quite rightly so. That Yankee harlot has never allowed to received by any noble or Royal house in Europe.

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Prince Charles from an early age knew Dickie had it in for him .

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Yes Uncle Dick enouraged Charles with young boys at a hotel on the Buckingham Palace Road

Was Louis Mountbatten the 1st or 2nd cousin of Edward v111 and his brother George v1?

He was second cousin of both Edward VIII and George VI

Lord Mountbatten has been linked to a Major pedophile scandal regarding an Irish school boys

His cousin Edward has being known to be bisexual. There are rumors of his nephew prince Phillips to be also bisexual and pedophile. Charles we know has had homosexual experiences. His closeness to Saville and a pedophile bishop and to his uncle Lord Mountbatten and the unpublished spider notes makes people wonder if Charles is also bisexual and a pedophile or what?

And all the nice strong French lads when he was in France " painting " Yeah painting BOLLOCKS!!

It spells Bad Taste to me, which is the opposite of Gay.

It’s really easy to create stories about the dead since they aren’t here to defend themselves.

Contrary to your insinuation, these "stories" were not created after Lord Mountbatten’s death. All of it was well known during his lifetime. Read a few books to educated yourself about the particulars. I did (your blogger).

All of it was well substantiated or just well publicized by the media ?

Don’t be so lazy, spouting conspiracy theories. Read some books, get the facts before challenging anyone’s comments. Sheesh! — your blogger.

Is there anymore articles that refrenref mountbatton and pedophilia

I really admire this man but cannot imagine him involved in an international paedophile gang using children, that is revolting!!

That’s a bit hard for me to accept too . It’s like accepting Sally Hemmings had Thomas Jefferson’s bastard . Might be true but seems so out of character . Lovers of liberty lost a dear friend that day in 1979 .

You do know that DNA confirmed Jefferson’s mixed descendants? The white and black descendants even met up on tv.

I just watched a documentary on YouTube about this disgusting, creepy pig called "Secrets of the Royals-Lord Mountbatten:Hero or Villian"….I wonder why no mention of the pedophile ring he was rumored to be involved in?? I also wondered if he somehow cleverly murdered his wife, Edwina. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Queen Elizabeth Bowles-Lyon plotted his bear-magazine.com how they hated each other and the fact that Hitler himself is quoted as calling her, the most dangerous woman alive. I put nothing past this disgusting inbred, narcissistic, sociopathic, narcopathic family, as well as other monarchs, emporers, etc. Can’t believe people admire such filthy, morally corrupt slime yet condemn poor people, minorities, homosexuals, those with disabilities etc!

Wer diesen mix zu schätzen weiß, dürfte sich auf gayroyal wohlfühlen. doch was ist eigentlich mit dem rest?

Was ist mit Gays, die sich nicht mit den neuen Seiten und Funktionen von GayRomeo anfreunden können und sich nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen Anbieter befinden?

Prince Charles’ mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‘homosexual with a perversion for young boys’, according to unearthed FBI files.

The celebrated war hero, who was the last Viceroy of India, and his wife Edwina Mountbatten were described as ‘persons of extremely low morals’ in intelligence files, which claim both frequently had extramarital affairs.

The 75-year-old FBI documents came out after being obtained through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request made by British historian Andrew Lownie for his new biography The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves.

The files were started in February 1944, following Mountbatten’s appointment as supreme allied commander of southeast Asia.

In one interview on another matter with author and socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, she claimed Mountbatten had a penchant for young men that made him an ‘unfit man to direct any sort of military operations’, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‘She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

‘She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

‘In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.’

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‘appears to have no special motive in making the above statements’.

In the new book, Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s, also claims: ‘Tom [Driberg] said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.’

Rumours of Mountbatten’s homosexuality have circulated for decades, with his group of gay friends allegedly referring to him by the nickname ‘Mountbottom’.

In addition, gossip about his and his wife’s extra lovers have swirled, spurred by his comment: ‘Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.’

It’s not known why FBI agents began putting together the dossier, which spans over more than three decades.

Agents opened further files on Mountbatten – described by Prince Charles as the ‘grandfather I never had’ – after World War II after he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Their interest in the British Navy officer and statesman, who was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack in 1979, reached an all-time high around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956.

The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves will be published on August 22.

Prince Philip’s cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten will be fighting the elements after joining the cast of this year’s Treasure Island with Bear Grylls.

The 56-year-old, who is a member of the extended Royal Family, has previously made history as being the first in the bloodline to be in an open same-sex relationship.

He’s now joining the series in hopes to show a new side of the upper middle class family he lives in, and to chance perceptions of the aristocracy.

He told The Sun: ‘They automatically assume that a lord is going to be about 80 years old, wear tweed suits and act like they’ve stepped out of Downton Abbey.

‘Don’t get me wrong, my upbringing was almost like a real life Downton Abbey, but I don’t think I am like that, I’m an openly gay lord.

Lord Mountbatten married James Coyle last year, and given away by his ex-wife Lady Penny Mountbatten, with whom he has three daughters.

Mountbatten will be fighting for a £100,000 prize fund on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, in scenes set to air later this year.

However, the show almost started with a disaster after Bear Grylls himself was stung by a bee, which he is deathly allergic to, on route to the actual island.

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect”

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

[quote]Since the assassination of Mountbatten in an IRA bomb attack 40 years ago, rumours have swirled about his sexuality, fuelled by his comment: “ a and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

[quote]In April 1957 the FBI produced a memo on allegations of an affair between Paul Robeson, the singer, and a, who had several liaisons with black men. She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

Lord Mountbatten is a father to three children with ex-wife Penelope (Penny) Thompson.

In an official statement, he said that he has struggled with his sexuality all along.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

Danielle Garrand is a social media producer and trending reporter for CBS News.

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Grundsätzlich: worauf sollte bei der suche nach einer „perfekten datingseite“ geachtet werden?

Auch wenn es sich auf den ersten Blick ein wenig unromantisch anhören mag: wer sich auf der Suche nach Liebe, Sex oder einem Abenteuer im Internet befindet, sollte immer auf die Seriosität der entsprechenden Seiten achten.

Ist diese gewährleistet, gilt es, sich mit weiteren Details, wie zum Beispiel:

Auseinanderzusetzen. Schnell wird hier klar, dass es schwerfällt, hier von einer „besten Seite“ zu sprechen. Vielmehr ist es wichtig, dass Seiten wie GayRoyal, bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com zum eigenen Geschmack und den persönlichen Erwartungen passen.

Oft hilft es auch, die Angebote einfach auszuprobieren und sich dann zu entscheiden.

Gayroyal sign up:

Okay, it’s time to look at how to sign up for GayRoyal. The process to join as a registered user is super simple and fast. Because this site focuses on hookups and casual sex, the amount of info you need to get started is pretty minimal. To register shouldn’t take you more than 5-10 minutes. You’ll start by going to the GayRoyal sign in page. First, select your gender identity and the gender identity or identities of the people you’re hoping to meet. Next, you’ll be asked to share your email address and to pick a unique password to use on the site. You can also choose your GayRoyal username at this point. Of course, there’s a lot to say about how to pick the best username for a hookup site. But we’ve distilled it all into this suggestion. Capture tone and attitude by choosing descriptive words that let other members get to know who you are and what you’re all about.Finally, you’ll need to let the site know where you’re located and what your birthday is. And that’s it! That was literally the entire registration process right there. Now that you have your GayRoyal login, you can sign in and start connecting with local hotties now.

Gayroyal chat:

Okay, your new account is registered and ready to go…and so are you. It’s time to start chatting with some hotties. Most dating sites have a chat feature that lets you get to know the site’s members on a more personal level. But the most modern hookup sites have features like voice and video chat, so you can get to know potential partners a little more intimately. Found someone you want to connect with? Just send out a couple GayRoyal messages to the members you’re most interested in. If you want to see who’s online and ready to chat, it’s super easy to find out. Just use the GayRoyal search feature to scroll through a list of members who match your criteria. Once you find the people you want to connect with, it’s super easy to reach out and start a conversation.

Gayroyal profiles:

So now it’s time to get your profile ready for some action. Start by navigating to the GayRoyal log in page and sign in to your account. We know that this site is all about hookups and casual sex, but that still isn’t an excuse to be sleazy. Use your GayRoyal profile as an opportunity to be your most desirable and attractive self. Most hookup sites will ask you questions to help you find the best possible matches. The GayRoyal questions are pretty concise, so answering all of them is a totally doable task. And yes, we definitely suggest answering all of them. They have to do with your desires, ideals, and bottom lines, so the more information you share, the more compatible your matches will be. We know, filling out your dating site profile isn’t exactly your idea of a good time. But put some effort into yours and we promise it will pay dividends. For the record, a good profile always includes several profile pictures. Imagine you wanted to search GayRoyal for matches and all the profiles you saw only had a single picture? It’s just not the way to get clicks, likes, and messages. Take a little time to feel good about your profile and we promise you won’t regret it.

Gayroyal app:

According to our research, this dating site has an app available for iPhone and Android. The GayRoyal mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it’s more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you’ll be able to access the GayRoyal desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you’ve got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.

Safety:

Let’s start with the biggest question you have: Is GayRoyal safe? Before you dive head first into a new dating site, it’s always a good idea to do some research. This becomes especially necessary when you’re looking at hookup and casual sex sites. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there. We’d also suggest you refer to the GayRoyal safety tips page to see how the site keeps its members safe. If you can’t find a safety page for the site, that might be a red flag right there. If you ever have contact with suspicious people on this dating site, please get in touch with GayRoyal help. Report the incident to help protect you and the site’s other members. We also encourage you to rely on your instincts when interacting with new people on a hookup site. If the encounter starts to feel fishy, go with your gut. The site’s moderators should always be informed of weird stuff happening on their site. So reach out and let them know if you suspect a scam. You can also get in touch with them if you need to cancel GayRoyal membership at any point.

Value for money:

Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is GayRoyal free? It’s very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It’s technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you’re using GayRoyal free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site’s most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That’s right, we’re about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person’s. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you’re interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like GayRoyal, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you’d like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you’re much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success.

Review conclusion:

If you came here hoping to read our GayRoyal reviews, we hope this article was useful. We know you’re interested in hookup and casual sex sites, which means this site would be a good fit on that level. If you’re looking for sexy NSA encounters and casual hookups, this site should for sure be on your radar. And if you’re wondering whether it’s the right site for you, hopefully you feel a little closer to a decision after reading the review. DatingPerfect wants to make sure you get the most out of your online dating experiences. Of course, we can help by providing you with a lot of info about the site in question. But we can also help with GayRoyal promo codes and special offers. We’ll hook you up whenever possible. Ready to try out this site and see if it has what you’ve been looking for?

James coyle verlobung mit lord ivar mountbatten

„Noch bist du kein Lord, Jimmy“, witzelte Lord Ivar Mountbatten in diesem Korkenknall-Post bei Instagram anlässlich der Bekanntgabe der Verlobung mit James Coyle (Foto). 

Peut-on donner le prix Nobel de la paix à la géniale lady Penny Mountbatten, qui se fait photographier avec son ex mari et le futur nouveau mari d’icelui ?Royal family’s first gay wedding: The story of the Queen’s cousin bear-magazine.com via @MailOnline

Two years after he announced he was gay, lord mountbatten, queen elizabeth ii’s cousin and a descendant of the royal family, ties the knot with james coyle.

Not long after Meghan Markle made history in May as the first mixed-race American woman to marry into the British royal family, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, has married James Coyle in what is the monarchy’s first-ever same-sex wedding, Coyle is an airline cabin services director whom Lord Ivar met back in 2014.

The couple has been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016 and exchanged their wedding vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon on last Saturday, the 22nd of September, 2018. The ceremonies lasted throughout the weekend.

Lord Mountbatten, who is also a descendant of Queen Victoria, has three children with his former wife, Penny Mountbatten. His wife and children have been very supportive of her husband’s relationship with Coyle.

The royal family still follows the rules of the Royal Marriages Act passed in 1772, which requires the first six people in the line of succession to receive permission from the ruling monarch before they tie the knot. But because Lord Mountbatten is not in the line of succession, he didn’t require the ruling monarch’s nod.

While most of the royal family wasn’t present for the wedding, the newlyweds celebrated with close family and friends. Taking to Instagram, Lord Ivar Mountbatten said, “Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather.” Thanking his family for their support, he added, “Most importantly, a massive thanks to my three gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened!”

“And finally, the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect…”, the newlywed Lord Mountbatten posted on Instagram.

The couple exchanged customized rings made for them by Milly Maunder and are currently honeymooning in Brazil.

Love = love!

Move over, Meghan Markle and unimportant royal family drama — the first ever gay royal wedding is set to take place this summer, just a few months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s, and right before Princess Eugenie’s nuptials.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten (say that three times fast!), is set to marry his partner, James Coyle in the monarchy’s fist ever gay royal wedding. It’s the first ever same-sex marriage in the family, and it’s certainly historic. Lord Ivar was previously married to his now ex-wife, Penny, before coming out publicly. By the time he came out, he was already deeply in love with James Coyle, and never looked back.

In a statement to the , Lord Ivar, “struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 16 year marriage,” and had told his former spouse he was bisexual even before he proposed. His former wife is a true gem, though, because she’s planning to walk Lord Ivar down the aisle — and idea straight from the daughter they share.

If you’re wondering if this gay royal wedding will have as much fanfare as Prince Harry’s — think again. The couple plans to wed in a private chapel on Lord Ivar’s estate in Devon, and party with roughly 100 friends and family members thereafter.

“We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that,” Coyle confessed to Daily Mail. Lord Ivar added that they’ll “probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

While Lord Mountbatten and Coyle were able to be legally wed in England, Northern Ireland still remains the only part of the UK without same-sex marriage.

Will queen elizabeth attend the first gay royal wedding?

Penny is set to give her ex-husband away to his new partner at the “small” ceremony.

“It’s just for the girls and close family and friends,” he said. It doesn’t seem like any royals are attending the wedding. Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Rhys-Jones — also known as the Earl and Countess of Essex — are the godparents of Mountbatten’s daughters, but they won’t be able to attend, either.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said. “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

The first gay royal wedding will have a reception for 120 guests with food and music — but no cake. “There won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?” Coyle said.

“We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

Get ready, y’all, because another royal wedding is in the works! And much like Meghan Markle’s nuptials to Prince Harry, it will be groundbreaking. Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is set to become the first royal in history to have a same-sex marriage.

According to , Lord Ivar came out as gay two years ago. Now, the father-of-three daughters— Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — has planned to start a new life with his partner, James Coyle. Fortunately, Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, whom he married 24 years ago, is in full support of the pair’s union.

So much so, that she will be walking Lord Ivar down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," Penny told Daily Mail. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

Penny continued that since Ivar came out, he’s become a much better version of himself. "What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock," Penny continued. "He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

Lord Ivar and James are set to be married this summer. The happy couple will tie the knot in Devon — a stunning coastal county in the southwest of England. We wish them all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world! After all, love is love.

A royal wedding like no other: the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten marries his new husband – after being given away by his ex-wife

Published: 22:26, 23 September 2018 | Updated: 07:26, 24 September 2018

For many a couple it is a long and winding road to the altar. 

For Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a divorced father of three, the path to matrimonial happiness has meant navigating all manner of obstacles that would test the strongest of relationships.

But yesterday, almost exactly two years after coming out as gay, the younger son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, and cousin of the Queen, was marking the first day of his new life — married to a man.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Lord Ivar and his new love James Coyle exchanged rings and vows in front of 60 family and friends including his three proud daughters.

 Never before, surely, has there been a wedding quite like it — the first ever same-sex marriage in the extended Royal Family.

A gospel choir serenaded them, and the toasts from their two best men saw guests raising flutes of Pol Roger, Churchill’s favourite champagne.

Twenty-four years ago, Princess Margaret was among those present at the grandest of ceremonies when Ivar married his wife Penny at the family’s ancestral home in Essex.

There were no royal witnesses for this latest union, solemnised in the private chapel at Bridwell Park — a Grade I-listed mansion near the village of Uffculme in Devon, where Lord and Lady Mountbatten settled and raised their family — and celebrated with a lavish reception in the orangery.

But the goodwill from Ivar’s extended family was flowing. He has received the warmest of congratulations from his lifelong friend Prince Edward, to whose eldest child, Lady Louise, he is godfather. 

The Earl and Countess of Wessex , who are also godparents to his two eldest daughters, were unable to be there.

Edward and Sophie knew of their plans but sadly couldn’t come. ‘Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they were not free,’ said Ivar, ‘but they adore James.’ 

Because Bridwell is used for corporate events and weddings, the date for Ivar and James’s nuptials could not be changed.

‘It was the only weekend in the diary when the house was free,’ says James, an airline cabin services director who will return to work today with a long-haul flight to Rio de Janeiro.

The honeymoon to Greece or Croatia — the destination has still to be decided — has been postponed until later in the year.

But like everything that has happened to this stylish couple, who chose matching velvet smoking jackets for their black-tie wedding, it has been managed with a reassuringly unflappable cool.

It wasn’t, of course, all plain sailing. Ivar’s marriage to Penny finally ran out of steam in 2011 when they let it be known that they had drifted apart.

Then, two years ago, he caused a stir when he confessed to having struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 17-year marriage. In fact, he had known from his teens that he was bisexual. 

‘Penny was aware before we got married . . . that my attraction went both ways,’ he said. ‘She was understanding and I will always be grateful to her.’

He finally admitted he was gay after finding contentment with Glasgow-born James, whom he met in 2014 in the upmarket Swiss alpine resort of Verbier, where Ivar and his family have always skied.

The outcome was happier than either man dared hope. Remarkably, the revelation did not destroy Ivar’s relationship with ex-wife Penny but strengthened it. 

And when their girls Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and 16-year-old Luli suggested she give their father away, the unconventional idea took root.

The weekend-long events began with a welcome dinner for 30 hosted by the couple on Friday night. 

The ceremony itself began on Saturday afternoon, by which time another 30 guests had arrived. None brought gifts. Instead, James and Ivar asked friends to make a donation to Regain, the spinal injury charity.

The chapel at Bridwell, with its twin herds of red and fallow deer grazing in the 140-acre park, was bedecked with flowers. 

Nine singers from Bristol’s Teachers Rock gospel choir added another distinctly a la mode touch to the service, which began with Penny escorting her ex-husband up the chapel aisle.

Guests then moved on to the orangery for a dinner of monkfish, and speeches followed by dancing.

So far, so normal — but elsewhere there were some subtle differences from the traditional marriage ceremony. There was no cake to cut but instead a tiered collection of their favourite cheeses. Nor are there plans for either man to change his name.

‘I suppose if we had met ten years ago a civil partnership would have been nice, but now that marriage between a man and a man is legal it seems the right thing to do,’ says Lord Ivar.

‘I have had the whole marriage thing — and been very happy — but James hasn’t, so I see it as a validation of my love for him.’

To the surprise of many — including himself, one suspects — Ivar has taken coming out in his stride.

‘Being a Mountbatten was never a problem,’ he said.

The great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma has the photographs to remind him of his place in royal society.

The pictures show him at royal weddings and christenings, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace and alongside the Queen on the Royal Yacht Britannia. 

Now a new set of photographs is going up in the drawing room — not of master and mistress but of master and master.

the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten is set to marry his partner james coyle.

Fresh off the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding last month, the British Royal family is gearing up for another historic set of nuptials in the form of its first ever same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s third cousin once removed who came out as gay in September 2016, has announced his engagement to airline cabin services director James Coyle, 56.

The couple are set to wed in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s country estate in Devon later this year – and Lord Mountbatten, 55, told the MailOnline that the engagement marks the end of a "real journey".

"Being a Mountbatten was never the problem," the great-great grandson of Queen Victoria says. "It was the generation into which I was born.

"When I was growing up, it was known as ‚the love that dare not speak its name‘, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.

He continues: "Coming out" is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point."

Lord Ivar has three children with his ex-wife Penelope Thompson, who he wed in 1994 before divorcing in 2011. He told her he was bisexual before they married, but the pair later split as the secret of his sexuality began to take a toll on their replationship.

Penelope is supportive of Lord Ivar’s new relationship and even plans to give her ex-husband away at the wedding – a gesture first suggested by their daughters.

"It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched", she says.

She goes on: "What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he ‚came out‘. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

‚Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder… He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‚out‘ he’s a completely different person.

"I said to James this morning, ‚I don’t think I’ve ever felt as happy as I do right now‘," he says.

"I’m proud too. Finally I am able to love myself and the reason this marriage is acceptable to all of us, particularly our lovely daughters, is because of the character of James, the nature of the beast — the gorgeous beast."

‚low morals‘

More is known about Edwina’s extra-marital affairs, but in the 75-year-old dossier, an aristocratic source close to them, interviewed by the FBI in the 1940s, described them as “persons of extremely low morals”.

British historian Andrew Lownie used freedom of information laws to source the files, and quotes them in his new biography of the famous couple.

Another source in the FBI files claimed that Mountbatten’s private life made him “an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations.”

In Lownie’s book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Ron Perks, who was Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, also breaks his silence.

He tells how Mountbatten had one favoured destination, the Red House near Rabat, which “was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers”, which he had not realised at the time.

Homesexual acts were banned in the UK until 1967, and many memos about Mountbatten’s sexuality have been edited or destroyed since.

Lord mountbatten ‚was a homosexual with a lust for young boys‘ claims secret fbi dossier compiled by agents seeking dirt on british statesmen during world war two and the suez crisis

Published: 08:31, 18 August 2019 | Updated: 14:47, 18 August 2019

Prince Charles‘ uncle and valued mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‚homosexual with a perversion for young boys‘, according to a secret dossier compiled by the FBI.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs.

One source said Mountbatten’s penchant for young men made him ‚an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations‘. 

The files paint a very different picture of the last viceroy of India – who was hailed as a war hero who led allied efforts in southeast Asia before he was assassinated in 1979 by an IRA bomb.

It is not known why agents began compiling the dossier, but the FBI has long been known to keep compromising material on high-profile figures, most famously Martin Luther King.

The 75-year-old FBI documents were obtained through a freedom of information request by British historian Andrew Lownie, who has written a biography of the couple. 

In the book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Mountbatten’s former driver Ron Perks reveals that one of his boss’s favourite destinations was ‚an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers‘ called the Red House near Rabat.

Agents began compiling the file, which spans more than three decades, in February 1944, shortly after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. 

Following his appointment, the FBI interviewed Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, about another matter, and she brought up Mountbatten, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‚She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. 

‚She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. 

‚In Lady Decies‘ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.‘

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‚appears to have no special motive in making the above statements‘.

Agents opened more files on Mountbatten after World War II when he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Rumours about his personality swirled following his death, fulled by his comment: ‚Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds‘ (the couple pictured together)

But the FBI’s interest in Mountbatten peaked around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956. 

Rumours about Mountbatten’s sexuality have long swirled following his death 40 years ago.

The royal kept a large group of gay friends, including Noël Coward, Terence Rattigan, Ivor Novello and Tom Driberg, who reportedly referred to him as ‚Mountbottom‘. 

Lownie’s new book, to be published on Thursday, contains an interview with Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s.

Daly claims: ‚Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.‘

According to the , Lownie’s book hints the Life Guards was used as a “fruitful source” of young men for Louis Mountbatten.

Tom Driberg, a Labour party MP who was openly gay, was a friend of Louis Mountbatten. Lownie’s book quotes an associate of Driberg as saying, “Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms—handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.”

Lord mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive red house is given an airing by the historian andrew lownie in a revealing new book. but did the elusive red house brothel truly exist in rabat?

Lord Mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive Red House is given an airing by the historian Andrew Lownie in a revealing new book. But did the elusive Red House brothel truly exist in Rabat?

The Rabat Red House that served as a secret gay brothel attended by Lord Mountbatten exists no more with the only remnant being a foundation rock.

The building was mentioned in a yet to be published biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

Although Lownie’s investigation sheds little light on where the house is, research undertaken by MaltaToday points to a site in Rabat, just off the Roman Villa.

The building is no longer there and the only remnants of the Red House appear to be a red foundation rock and the name of the street, Red Tower Street.

Research for the biography unveils that the decorated war hero and uncle to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, used to frequent a gay brothel in Rabat during his time in Malta between 1950 and 1954.

Lownie describes this as the Red House, and quoting his source, Lownie told MaltaToday that The Red House functioned as “an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers.”

He said that Lord Mountbatten’s former chauffeur in Malta, now in his nineties, said that Mountbatten used his own personal car to get to the Rabat brothel.

The driver, Ron Perks, was once asked by Mountbatten to take him to this fabled house and he had acceded to the request.

“I found [the driver] from an interview in a newspaper cutting in East Anglia… and went to see him. During the course of the interview, he decided to tell me these things. He’s a very nice, serious, old school soldier,” Lownie said.

“It was an isolated, baronial-style building with a flat roof. One day as we were driving along, Mountbatten asked if I knew the Red House. I said I did and he asked if I would take him there, which I did. I never dropped him there, but he had his own car which he used often. He wouldn’t have asked me for nothing. I didn’t know what it was and only learnt after I came out of the service that it was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers. You’re taught to keep out of trouble in the Navy and I’ve never said a word about the incident until now,” Perks told Lownie.

In a chapter of Lownie’s book called ‘Rumours’, the biographer retells stories he heard about Mountbatten’s exploits in Malta.

“People told me stories about [Mountbatten] being invited on picnics in Malta and it was clearly a sexual invitation. There was also an affair with a woman in Malta but which was covered up. I wasn’t able to get anyone to speak on record about it. I think most of them didn’t want to say anything because of their loyalty towards him,” Lownie said.

Back in May 2018, Lownie used the Times of Malta to ask for any knowledge of The Red House by publishing a call for bear-magazine.com we reached out to him he said that that call was quite fruitless.

“I tried to locate [the house] and spoke to several people in Malta… tried various forums but with no luck. My source is in his nineties and was remembering back 70 years but he was pretty adamant about The Red House,” he said.

There is a red house, il-Palazz l-Aħmar, in the area known as Landrijiet in the outskirts of Rabat, today housing the restaurant Rogantino’bear-magazine.com its owner, Tony Grech, a history buff, insisted the Red House frequented by Lord Mountbatten was inside Rabat proper. “The Red House you’re looking for is close to the Roman Villa but it’s not there anymore. It has since been turned into a block of flats,” he told MaltaToday.

Grech’s claim was corroborated by an elderly acquaintance of Mountbatten – in Malta – who said the Red House was close to a drinking spot for horses.

Pictures of prominent photographers at the time, like Alfred Vella Gera and Richard Ellis do not seem to have documented The RedHouse.

Postcard collections compiled by the forensic expert Anthony Abela Medici do not feature the elusive house either, who said he was unaware of a red house on Red Tower Street.

Tony Grech and other sources told MaltaToday that the Red House belonged to the Von Brockdorff family, and at the time was used as a ‘party house’ by the British navy. The Von Brockdorffs eventually sold it and moved to Iklin, Grech suggested.

While he could not confirm the existence of a gay brothel in Rabat, Joseph Carmel Chetcuti, author of Queer Mediterranean Memories – a query history of Malta –said that Rabat was “quite gay friendly” at the time of Mountbatten.

“All I know is that [Mountbatten] used to go horse-riding and give young teenage boys a ride on the horse in Marsa… he used to hold them very close to him,” Chetcuti claimed.

Rumours of Lord Mountbatten and his Edwina’s sexual promiscuity have become part of the legend of the Mountbattens. But Lownie’s unearthing of the FBI files confirm the reputation of his alleged homosexuality to have been earned by Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin.Mountbatten himself had admitted later in life that he and his wife had spent “all [their] married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

He never confirmed, however, his interest in young men, and the story of the Red House in Rabat still proves elusive and largely based on hearsay.

Lownie told MaltaToday that he had encountered a 2002 Daily Express article which told the story of a possible illegitimate child of Lord Mountbatten, Andrew Guy, who was the adoptive son of a leading telegraphist — who served on some of the same ships as Lord Mountbatten – and a nurse to Lord Mountbatten’s daughters at Casa Medina in Malta.

The story seems to have not been followed up since that time and while Guy asked for Lord Mountbatten’s DNA for analysis, nothing else was reported.

Mountbatten was an admiral in the Royal Navy and served as Supreme Allied Commander, South East Command during the second World War. He also held the post of Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the NATO military Committee. He was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack on his private boat, in Mullaghmore in Ireland, in August 1979.

El tío favorito del príncipe carlos era, según una nueva biografía, bisexual y aficionado a los jóvenes militares. “pasamos nuestro matrimonio metiéndonos en las camas de otros”, llegó a afirmar

De lord Louis Mountbatten, el estimado mentor del príncipe Carlos de Inglaterra en su juventud, ha quedado para los británicos el recuerdo terrible de su asesinato por el IRA en 1979último virrey de la Indiadel imperio y sellar la independencia del subcontinente.

A las puertas del 40º aniversario de su muerte —que se cumple hoy—, el pasado jueves salió a la venta un libro que se ha atrevido a adentrarse en una faceta privada más indiscreta del personaje, que relata los avatares de su matrimonio abierto con lady Edwina y, por primera vez, descubre la afición del aristócrata y diplomático por chicos muy jóvenes. El autor, Andrew Lownie, sustenta la información en archivos desclasificados del FBI estadounidense.

Las revelaciones que inserta el título Los Mountbatten: their lives and loves (sus vidas y amores) van a tocar una fibra sensible de la familia real inglesa: un miembro de la nutrida prole de bisnietos de la reina Victoria, además de tío materno del duque Felipe de Edimburgo —el marido de Isabel II— y tío abuelo del príncipe Carlos, hoy heredero de la corona británica. El pariente al que todos apodaban Dickie, una personalidad de arrollador atractivo, fue consejero informal pero privilegiado de la actual monarca inglesa en los primeros años de su reinado. Y, más tarde, una suerte de figura paterna para su primogénito, Carlos.

“Pasamos nuestra vida matrimonial metiéndonos cada uno en las camas de otros”, llegó a admitir lord Mountbatten en un momento de debilidad y como resumen de su matrimonio con Edwina Ashley, también aristócrata y heredera de una ingente fortuna. Se casaron en 1922 y, a los dos años, emprendieron rumbo a Nueva York en compañía del entonces príncipe de Gales, el futuro y efímero rey Eduardo VIII, que entregó el trono supuestamente por el amor de Wallis Simpson. Entonces Louis se puso enfermo y su mujer no quiso que aquella amigdalitis le aguara la fiesta. A lo largo de la travesía, flirteó noche tras noche con jóvenes atraídos por una mujer guapa y rica, pero solo tras su desembarco estadounidense recabó al primer amante. Le siguieron muchos más.

Hasta aquí el libro no presenta grandes novedades sobre la historiografía oficiosa de una pareja que acabó cerrando un pacto para capear el escándalo que se cernía sobre la casa de los Windsor: Edwina apoyaría a su marido en su carrera y a cambio cada uno se labraría sus propias aventuras sexuales. La promiscuidad de ella llegó a ser objeto de algunos artículos que consiguieron superar la férrea censura de aquellos tiempos. Y que tuvieron su pico cuando una columnista británica aventuró que había entablado relaciones con un hombre “de color”, el intérprete Paul Robeson, aupado al éxito gracias a su Otelo en el West End. Se daba por hecho que lord Mountbatten también dormía en otros lechos, pero en la época aquello no se le tenía en cuenta.

Otros rumores, más soterrados, sobre la supuesta bisexualidad de Dickie siempre toparon con el bloqueo del establishment. Las relaciones gais estaban penadas entonces con la cárcel. Algunos de los documentos secretos recopilados por los servicios de inteligencia estadounidenses a lo largo de tres décadas son ahora recogidos en un libro que le atribuye una especial debilidad por los hombres jóvenes, y en especial los uniformados.

“Esa perversión”, sostenía la baronesa Decies, amiga de la reina madre, en sus contactos con el FBI, “le incapacita para cualquier clase de operación militar”, según reza uno de los pocos archivos que no acabaron destruidos. El chófer de lord Mountbatten en su consiguiente destino en Malta también confirmó sus frecuentes visitas a un burdel gay frecuentado por oficiales de la marina. El relato del libro incluye posteriores testimonios de los años sesenta y setenta sobre las artes seductoras del aristócrata centradas en oficiales y algún marinero, todos ellos muy jóvenes.

El libro sostiene que también hubo muchas mujeres en su vida, entre ellas la estrella hollywoodense Shirley MacLaine, y que las andanzas del lord no iban a la zaga de las de Edwina. Pero hasta ahora ella siempre había sido el foco de su disfuncional matrimonio. Un capítulo especial en la vida de lady Mountbatten fue su estrecha relación con el futuro fundador de la India independiente, Jawaharlal Nehru, cuando él era primer ministro y ella ejercía de esposa del último gobernador británico. Un secreto a voces. “Nehru era un viudo que estaba solo en la cúspide del poder, y mi madre se convirtió en su confidente”, confirmaba hace doce años en otro libro la hija menor de los Mountbatten, Pamela (Hicks es su apellido de casada). Siempre ha quedado en el aire si se trató de un amor platónico por ambas partes o si hubo algo más.

Edwina murió en 1960, dejando tras de sí una reputación de mujer disoluta para los cerrados parámetros de la época. Las variadas aficiones sexuales de Louis fueron en cambio enterradas bajo un código de silencio. Y solo han salido a la luz cuatro décadas después de que estallara una bomba colocada por los terroristas en el barco en el que navegaba por aguas cercanas al Ulster. Tenía 79 años y una reputación impoluta.

26. washing his hands

After the war, Mountbatten became Viceroy to India. That country only recently won its independence from the British empire, and Mountbatten’s job was to make the transition from colonial property to independent nation as seamless as possible.

This was no easy task. India was on the verge of civil war, divided between followers of Jawaharlal Nehru (who was also, awkwardly, Mountbatten’s wife’s boyfriend), who wanted a united, Hindu-led India, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who wanted a separate Muslim state. Rather than risk England’s involvement, Mountbatten insisted on granting India independence a.s.a.p.

40. his secret shame

The Baroness was not the only one to level allegations at Mountbatten. Mountbatten’s former driver revealed that he would frequently deliver Mountbatten to a gay brothel in Morocco. Another driver admitted to bringing boys as young as 12 to Mountbatten’s home. One male sex worker in England claims that the royal was one of his clients. He also said that Mountbatten preferred young men in uniform.

be careful: premium does not include xl on the website

Two days ago I got a 3 months Premium subscription, thinking my account would also be Premium on the GayRoyal-website. But that’s not true! Go to bear-magazine.com and buy an XL membership cause that also includes Premium in the app. It’s almost the same price as Premium by itself. And Premium in the app offers very little options. So beware.

Gayroyal und sein ruf – was verbirgt sich hinter dem image?

GayRoyal gehört definitiv zu den bekannteren Seiten der Szene. Sicherlich hat jeder Gay bereits von dem entsprechenden Angebot gehört. Besonders charakteristisch: die Seite galt bzw. gilt für viele als etwas „schmuddeliger“ als viele Seiten der Konkurrenz.

Häufig wird sie in direkten Bezug zu GayRomeo gesetzt und schneidet hier entsprechend ab. Hierbei sollte jedoch nicht vergessen werden, dass „schmuddelig“ nicht zwangsläufig „schlecht“ bedeutet. Die Zielgruppe ist jedoch definitiv eine andere.

Einige User schrieben (im Rahmen verschiedener Erfahrungsberichte im Internet) über Probleme mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen bear-magazine.com hier gilt jedoch wieder, dass der Zufriedenheitsfaktor zu einem hohen Maße von der individuellen Einstellung abhängig ist. Wer beispielsweise kein Problem mit einer vergleichsweise schlichten Menüführung hat und schnelle Abenteuer bevorzugt, dürfte mit GayRoyal nach wie vor auf seine Kosten kommen.

Vor allem mit Hinblick auf die Tatsache, dass sich in den letzten Wochen einige User ohnehin darüber beschwert haben, dass „ihr“ Gayromeo zum Schlechten hin verändert wurde, dürfte sich hier demnächst einiges tun.

Winging it

Son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, Lord Ivar has admitted that even his mother Janet, 81, supports him fully – saying everyone should ‚try everything once‘.

Meanwhile, Prince William recently said that it would be ‚absolutely fine‘ if any of his children came out as gay, saying he would ’support any decision they make‘.

And the Prince also made history back in 2016 when he appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

gear up for the first ever same-sex royal wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic event. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a gay wedding. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

“It was the girls’ idea,” she explained in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew, going into her marriage with Lord Ivar, that he identified as bisexual.

“What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun,” she said. “Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret, it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out, he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” Lord Ivar explained. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

Wer nutzt gayroyal? gibt es eine bestimmte zielgruppe?

Vielleicht auch aufgrund der Tatsache, dass es sich bei GayRoyal um einen absoluten Klassiker der Gay Szene handelt, tummeln sich hier – gerade im Vergleich zu anderen Seiten – oft (jedoch nicht nur) ältere User.

Grundlegend gab es hier auch nicht wirklich viele Änderungen mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen Nutzerkomfort. Die Menüführung wirkt einfach, bietet jedoch auch dementsprechend keine größeren Überraschungen oder Effekte.

Bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com – mit fokus auf chat und transparenz

Viele Gays ärgern sich beim Chatten über einen Mangel an Transparenz. Besonders nervig: das virtuelle „Gegenüber“ hat sich gegen das Hochladen eines Profilbildes entschieden oder schickt direkt ein „Dick-Pic“. Je nach individuellem Chatgrund kommen diese Vorgehensweisen nur selten gut an.

Seiten wie bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com setzen exakt an dieser Stelle an. Hier chatten viele User mit Bild. Gleichzeitig steht häufig ein Austausch auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen im Fokus. Der Anspruch der Nutzer ist dementsprechend hoch.

Wahrscheinlich ist es dieser positive Ruf, der nun dafür sorgt, dass diese Seiten – nach der Umstellung von GayRomeo und der Gestaltung bzw. den Inhalten von GayRoyal – sich einer so großen Beliebtheit erfreuen. Gay Chats sind schon lange nicht mehr alternativlos. User haben die Möglichkeit sich – je nach Seite auch im ersten Schritt kostenlos – einen persönlichen Eindruck vom Verhalten der User zu machen. Hier zeigt sich in der Regel schnell, inwieweit die betreffende Seite dafür geschaffen sein könnte, die eigenen Flirtambitionen zu unterstützen.

Zu platte Themen oder ein Hang zum Versenden von Nacktbildern werden hier schnell aufgedeckt. Gays, die sich auf der ernsthaften Suche nach einem festen Partner befinden, dürften hier abgeschreckt werden. Auch Schwule, die gerade erst ihr Coming Out hinter sich haben, suchen gegebenenfalls einen Chatpartner, mit dem sie sowohl reden als auch flirten können. Exakt an dieser Stelle kommen Seiten wie bear-magazine.com ins Spiel.

Gayromeo, gayroyal oder andere? eigene erfahrungen als basis für die richtige entscheidung

Der Chat Alltag in der Gay Szene zeigt, dass es auf der Suche nach der „perfekten Seite“ unerlässlich ist, seine eigenen Erfahrungen zu sammeln.

Berichte bzw. Erfahrungsberichte aus dem Internet können dabei helfen, sich einen ersten Eindruck über:

zu machen. Dennoch sollte hier nie zu vorschnell geurteilt werden. Denn: wer sagt einem Nutzer, dass er nicht auch in einer als „schmuddeligem Chat“ verrufenen Variante die „Liebe seines Lebens“ finden könnte?

Daher gilt es, auszutesten und sich gleichzeitig auch immer über die passenden Alternativen zu GayRoyal und Co. zu informieren. Wer offen bleibt und seine Möglichkeiten nutzt, erkennt schnell, dass das Chatten vor einem ersten Date mindestens ebenso wichtig ist, wie die richtigen Worte zum richtigen Zeitpunkt.

The first same-sex royal wedding has taken place – a historic occasion for the monarchy.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and his partner James Coyle married over the weekend, after announcing in June that they would be tying the knot.

The pair, who have been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016, reportedly exchanged vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon in front of 60 family and friends, according to the .

In september of 2016, lord ivar mountbatten, the queen’s cousin, came out as gay. and now he has announced that he is due to get married.

At the time of his coming out, Lord Mountbatten told the Mail on Sunday about his long-term relationship with James Coyle, an airline cabin services director, and the happiness he had found.

“Being a Mountbatten was never the problem,” he told the paper, “It was the generation into which I was born. When I was growing up, it was known as ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.”

Speaking to the MailOnline, Lord Mountbatten said: “All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Lord Mountbatten also confirmed that he had received a full blessing from the Royal Family. The wedding itself is due to take place later in the Summer, in Lord Mountbatten’s private chapel on his country estate in Devon.

In the article, Lord Mountbatten confirmed that it was him who was pushing for the marriage. “‘I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married,” he said.

He continued, saying: “‘For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”

Before he came out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Penny Thompson, although the couple divorced in 2011. However, showing that there is no bad blood between the couple, Penny will be the person walking Lord Mountbatten down the aisle.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said. She also mentioned how her and James had began getting on within “ten seconds” of meeting each other.

She further added: “What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

“‘Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Even though the MailOnline is associated with The Daily Mail, which is known to be quite homophobic, the majority of the comments on the article were incredibly supportive.

“Love is Love. Wishing them all the best especially the wife who certainly has a halo above her head in my estimation,” said one. Another said: “Heartening to read about such wonderful relationships and the understanding all round.”

And back in April it was found that nearly three quarters of British people didn’t object to a same-sex royal wedding, and that two-thirds were supportive of the idea.

First gay

When media have they finished discussing the wedding of Prince Harry with American actress Megan Markle, the royal family is again at the center of attention. And again because of the wedding! This time 55-year-old cousin of Queen Elizabeth II Lord Ivar Mountbatten married his beloved, 56-year-old man, James Coyle. It is noteworthy that this is the first gay wedding in the royal family.

Lord ivar is a divorcee

Lord Ivar Mountbatten was previously married to a woman named Penny, with whom he had three daughters. He reportedly told Penny before their engagement that he was bisexual, as reported by E! News.

Among the guests at the wedding, the ex-wife of the Lord was seen along with their three daughters. Despite the fact that they divorced back in 2011, the former spouses remained on good terms. According to the Queen’s brother himself, all 17 years while he lived with his wife, he doubted his sexual orientation, and only a few years ago dared to openly say that he was gay.

In fact, Penny walked Lord Mountbatten down the aisle on his wedding day. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.

British royalty changed their name from Saxa-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to distance themselves from their germanic heritage. Minor Royals such as Mountbatten followed suit with their own surnames. Interesting article and great aim for the site. I wouldn’t want factual errors to undermine this.

Oh! What Evil webs we weave! When we practice to deceive

Oh what a Tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive

There is a full documentary on Youtube about the various sins of the Royal Family. It is so scurrilous that I doubt a lot of it is true, although this bit seems to be. The Edwina-Nehru affair is widely known (there was a movie about it–I think it is called The Last Viceroy), and the bisexual rumors don’t disturb me, but the child porn charges are truly shocking. I must say I am also chagrined that Churchill said that about the Indian people. I think they are lovely people, and I think it was right to relinquish The Raj, but I regret the bloodshed that followed. Still, today India seems to be thriving, despite continued outrages against women. I’ve got a lot of opinions, don’t I?

Especially given Churchill’s atrocious appearance and manners. Ugh! SI tu n’es pas joli, soit poli!!

I see you have opted for ‚rumoured‘ when you have absolutely not proof of any of this, in fact where is the proof? Mountbatten was not well liked by some members of the royal family the Duke and Duchess of Windsor for one.

Mountbatten was extremely close to the Duke of Windsor until 1937 (as you can see from the photo above) I don’t think the Duke ever forgave him for not attending his weeding to Wallace

Well the Duke ear himself a bloody traitor to his nation and Jan an affair with Louis during the empire tours. As for that Yankee harlot and usurper, a pro Nazi bitch. I would never learn to those could say.

No member of the Royal family was present at the Duke’s wedding in France and quite rightly so. That Yankee harlot has never allowed to received by any noble or Royal house in Europe.

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Prince Charles from an early age knew Dickie had it in for him .

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Yes Uncle Dick enouraged Charles with young boys at a hotel on the Buckingham Palace Road

Was Louis Mountbatten the 1st or 2nd cousin of Edward v111 and his brother George v1?

He was second cousin of both Edward VIII and George VI

Lord Mountbatten has been linked to a Major pedophile scandal regarding an Irish school boys

His cousin Edward has being known to be bisexual. There are rumors of his nephew prince Phillips to be also bisexual and pedophile. Charles we know has had homosexual experiences. His closeness to Saville and a pedophile bishop and to his uncle Lord Mountbatten and the unpublished spider notes makes people wonder if Charles is also bisexual and a pedophile or what?

And all the nice strong French lads when he was in France " painting " Yeah painting BOLLOCKS!!

It spells Bad Taste to me, which is the opposite of Gay.

It’s really easy to create stories about the dead since they aren’t here to defend themselves.

Contrary to your insinuation, these "stories" were not created after Lord Mountbatten’s death. All of it was well known during his lifetime. Read a few books to educated yourself about the particulars. I did (your blogger).

All of it was well substantiated or just well publicized by the media ?

Don’t be so lazy, spouting conspiracy theories. Read some books, get the facts before challenging anyone’s comments. Sheesh! — your blogger.

Is there anymore articles that refrenref mountbatton and pedophilia

I really admire this man but cannot imagine him involved in an international paedophile gang using children, that is revolting!!

That’s a bit hard for me to accept too . It’s like accepting Sally Hemmings had Thomas Jefferson’s bastard . Might be true but seems so out of character . Lovers of liberty lost a dear friend that day in 1979 .

You do know that DNA confirmed Jefferson’s mixed descendants? The white and black descendants even met up on tv.

I just watched a documentary on YouTube about this disgusting, creepy pig called "Secrets of the Royals-Lord Mountbatten:Hero or Villian"….I wonder why no mention of the pedophile ring he was rumored to be involved in?? I also wondered if he somehow cleverly murdered his wife, Edwina. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Queen Elizabeth Bowles-Lyon plotted his bear-magazine.com how they hated each other and the fact that Hitler himself is quoted as calling her, the most dangerous woman alive. I put nothing past this disgusting inbred, narcissistic, sociopathic, narcopathic family, as well as other monarchs, emporers, etc. Can’t believe people admire such filthy, morally corrupt slime yet condemn poor people, minorities, homosexuals, those with disabilities etc!

Wer diesen mix zu schätzen weiß, dürfte sich auf gayroyal wohlfühlen. doch was ist eigentlich mit dem rest?

Was ist mit Gays, die sich nicht mit den neuen Seiten und Funktionen von GayRomeo anfreunden können und sich nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen Anbieter befinden?

Wie bereits erwähnt, sind die Möglichkeiten sehr vielseitig. Nun gilt es „nur“ noch, keine Einbußen mit Hinblick auf die Qualität der Seiten hinzunehmen. Wem GayRoyal zu fetisch bzw. zu speziell ist, kann sich unter anderem auf bear-magazine.com und auf bear-magazine.com umsehen. Beide Seiten bieten einen bunten Mix aus Chat, Flirt und weiteren Extras und sind in der Regel bei Gays aus nahezu allen Altersgruppen beliebt.

Prince Charles’ mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‘homosexual with a perversion for young boys’, according to unearthed FBI files.

The celebrated war hero, who was the last Viceroy of India, and his wife Edwina Mountbatten were described as ‘persons of extremely low morals’ in intelligence files, which claim both frequently had extramarital affairs.

The 75-year-old FBI documents came out after being obtained through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request made by British historian Andrew Lownie for his new biography The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves.

The files were started in February 1944, following Mountbatten’s appointment as supreme allied commander of southeast Asia.

In one interview on another matter with author and socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, she claimed Mountbatten had a penchant for young men that made him an ‘unfit man to direct any sort of military operations’, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‘She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

‘She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

‘In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.’

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‘appears to have no special motive in making the above statements’.

In the new book, Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s, also claims: ‘Tom [Driberg] said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.’

Rumours of Mountbatten’s homosexuality have circulated for decades, with his group of gay friends allegedly referring to him by the nickname ‘Mountbottom’.

In addition, gossip about his and his wife’s extra lovers have swirled, spurred by his comment: ‘Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.’

It’s not known why FBI agents began putting together the dossier, which spans over more than three decades.

Agents opened further files on Mountbatten – described by Prince Charles as the ‘grandfather I never had’ – after World War II after he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Their interest in the British Navy officer and statesman, who was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack in 1979, reached an all-time high around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956.

The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves will be published on August 22.

Prince Philip’s cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten will be fighting the elements after joining the cast of this year’s Treasure Island with Bear Grylls.

The 56-year-old, who is a member of the extended Royal Family, has previously made history as being the first in the bloodline to be in an open same-sex relationship.

He’s now joining the series in hopes to show a new side of the upper middle class family he lives in, and to chance perceptions of the aristocracy.

He told The Sun: ‘They automatically assume that a lord is going to be about 80 years old, wear tweed suits and act like they’ve stepped out of Downton Abbey.

‘Don’t get me wrong, my upbringing was almost like a real life Downton Abbey, but I don’t think I am like that, I’m an openly gay lord.

Lord Mountbatten married James Coyle last year, and given away by his ex-wife Lady Penny Mountbatten, with whom he has three daughters.

Mountbatten will be fighting for a £100,000 prize fund on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, in scenes set to air later this year.

However, the show almost started with a disaster after Bear Grylls himself was stung by a bee, which he is deathly allergic to, on route to the actual island.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Sep 24, 2018 at 4:01am PDT

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect”

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

[quote]Since the assassination of Mountbatten in an IRA bomb attack 40 years ago, rumours have swirled about his sexuality, fuelled by his comment: “ a and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

[quote]The FBI files cover more than three decades. The first is dated February 1944, soon after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, when interviewed about another matter, had mentioned being an intimate of Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary and their ladies-in-waiting.

[quote]“She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

[quote]In April 1957 the FBI produced a memo on allegations of an affair between Paul Robeson, the singer, and a, who had several liaisons with black men. She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

Lord Mountbatten is a father to three children with ex-wife Penelope (Penny) Thompson.

In an official statement, he said that he has struggled with his sexuality all along.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

Posted by liamfoley63 in Kingdom of EuropeRoyal MistressRoyal SuccessionRoyal Titles

1st Earl Mountbatten of BurmaAssassinationFirst Sea LordIrish Republican ArmyLady BarbourneLord Louis MountbattenPrince Louis of BattenbergSuez Crisis of 1956Viceroy of IndiaYola Letellier

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

Danielle Garrand is a social media producer and trending reporter for CBS News.

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Gayroyal sign up:

Okay, it’s time to look at how to sign up for GayRoyal. The process to join as a registered user is super simple and fast. Because this site focuses on hookups and casual sex, the amount of info you need to get started is pretty minimal. To register shouldn’t take you more than 5-10 minutes. You’ll start by going to the GayRoyal sign in page. First, select your gender identity and the gender identity or identities of the people you’re hoping to meet. Next, you’ll be asked to share your email address and to pick a unique password to use on the site. You can also choose your GayRoyal username at this point. Of course, there’s a lot to say about how to pick the best username for a hookup site. But we’ve distilled it all into this suggestion. Capture tone and attitude by choosing descriptive words that let other members get to know who you are and what you’re all about.Finally, you’ll need to let the site know where you’re located and what your birthday is. And that’s it! That was literally the entire registration process right there. Now that you have your GayRoyal login, you can sign in and start connecting with local hotties now.

Gayroyal chat:

Okay, your new account is registered and ready to go…and so are you. It’s time to start chatting with some hotties. Most dating sites have a chat feature that lets you get to know the site’s members on a more personal level. But the most modern hookup sites have features like voice and video chat, so you can get to know potential partners a little more intimately. Found someone you want to connect with? Just send out a couple GayRoyal messages to the members you’re most interested in. If you want to see who’s online and ready to chat, it’s super easy to find out. Just use the GayRoyal search feature to scroll through a list of members who match your criteria. Once you find the people you want to connect with, it’s super easy to reach out and start a conversation.

Gayroyal profiles:

So now it’s time to get your profile ready for some action. Start by navigating to the GayRoyal log in page and sign in to your account. We know that this site is all about hookups and casual sex, but that still isn’t an excuse to be sleazy. Use your GayRoyal profile as an opportunity to be your most desirable and attractive self. Most hookup sites will ask you questions to help you find the best possible matches. The GayRoyal questions are pretty concise, so answering all of them is a totally doable task. And yes, we definitely suggest answering all of them. They have to do with your desires, ideals, and bottom lines, so the more information you share, the more compatible your matches will be. We know, filling out your dating site profile isn’t exactly your idea of a good time. But put some effort into yours and we promise it will pay dividends. For the record, a good profile always includes several profile pictures. Imagine you wanted to search GayRoyal for matches and all the profiles you saw only had a single picture? It’s just not the way to get clicks, likes, and messages. Take a little time to feel good about your profile and we promise you won’t regret it.

Gayroyal app:

According to our research, this dating site has an app available for iPhone and Android. The GayRoyal mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it’s more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you’ll be able to access the GayRoyal desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you’ve got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.

Safety:

Let’s start with the biggest question you have: Is GayRoyal safe? Before you dive head first into a new dating site, it’s always a good idea to do some research. This becomes especially necessary when you’re looking at hookup and casual sex sites. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there. We’d also suggest you refer to the GayRoyal safety tips page to see how the site keeps its members safe. If you can’t find a safety page for the site, that might be a red flag right there. If you ever have contact with suspicious people on this dating site, please get in touch with GayRoyal help. Report the incident to help protect you and the site’s other members. We also encourage you to rely on your instincts when interacting with new people on a hookup site. If the encounter starts to feel fishy, go with your gut.

Value for money:

Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is GayRoyal free? It’s very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It’s technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you’re using GayRoyal free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site’s most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That’s right, we’re about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person’s. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you’re interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like GayRoyal, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you’d like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you’re much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success.

James coyle verlobung mit lord ivar mountbatten

„Noch bist du kein Lord, Jimmy“, witzelte Lord Ivar Mountbatten in diesem Korkenknall-Post bei Instagram anlässlich der Bekanntgabe der Verlobung mit James Coyle (Foto). 

Peut-on donner le prix Nobel de la paix à la géniale lady Penny Mountbatten, qui se fait photographier avec son ex mari et le futur nouveau mari d’icelui ?Royal family’s first gay wedding: The story of the Queen’s cousin bear-magazine.com via @MailOnline

Two years after he announced he was gay, lord mountbatten, queen elizabeth ii’s cousin and a descendant of the royal family, ties the knot with james coyle.

Not long after Meghan Markle made history in May as the first mixed-race American woman to marry into the British royal family, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, has married James Coyle in what is the monarchy’s first-ever same-sex wedding, Coyle is an airline cabin services director whom Lord Ivar met back in 2014.

The couple has been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016 and exchanged their wedding vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon on last Saturday, the 22nd of September, 2018. The ceremonies lasted throughout the weekend.

Lord Mountbatten, who is also a descendant of Queen Victoria, has three children with his former wife, Penny Mountbatten. His wife and children have been very supportive of her husband’s relationship with Coyle.

The royal family still follows the rules of the Royal Marriages Act passed in 1772, which requires the first six people in the line of succession to receive permission from the ruling monarch before they tie the knot. But because Lord Mountbatten is not in the line of succession, he didn’t require the ruling monarch’s nod.

While most of the royal family wasn’t present for the wedding, the newlyweds celebrated with close family and friends. Taking to Instagram, Lord Ivar Mountbatten said, “Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather.” Thanking his family for their support, he added, “Most importantly, a massive thanks to my three gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened!”

“And finally, the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect…”, the newlywed Lord Mountbatten posted on Instagram.

The couple exchanged customized rings made for them by Milly Maunder and are currently honeymooning in Brazil.

Love = love!

Move over, Meghan Markle and unimportant royal family drama — the first ever gay royal wedding is set to take place this summer, just a few months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s, and right before Princess Eugenie’s nuptials.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten (say that three times fast!), is set to marry his partner, James Coyle in the monarchy’s fist ever gay royal wedding. It’s the first ever same-sex marriage in the family, and it’s certainly historic. Lord Ivar was previously married to his now ex-wife, Penny, before coming out publicly. By the time he came out, he was already deeply in love with James Coyle, and never looked back.

In a statement to the , Lord Ivar, “struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 16 year marriage,” and had told his former spouse he was bisexual even before he proposed. His former wife is a true gem, though, because she’s planning to walk Lord Ivar down the aisle — and idea straight from the daughter they share.

If you’re wondering if this gay royal wedding will have as much fanfare as Prince Harry’s — think again. The couple plans to wed in a private chapel on Lord Ivar’s estate in Devon, and party with roughly 100 friends and family members thereafter.

“We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that,” Coyle confessed to Daily Mail. Lord Ivar added that they’ll “probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

While Lord Mountbatten and Coyle were able to be legally wed in England, Northern Ireland still remains the only part of the UK without same-sex marriage.

Will queen elizabeth attend the first gay royal wedding?

Penny is set to give her ex-husband away to his new partner at the “small” ceremony.

“It’s just for the girls and close family and friends,” he said. It doesn’t seem like any royals are attending the wedding. Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Rhys-Jones — also known as the Earl and Countess of Essex — are the godparents of Mountbatten’s daughters, but they won’t be able to attend, either.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said. “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

The first gay royal wedding will have a reception for 120 guests with food and music — but no cake. “There won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?” Coyle said.

“We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

Get ready, y’all, because another royal wedding is in the works! And much like Meghan Markle’s nuptials to Prince Harry, it will be groundbreaking. Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is set to become the first royal in history to have a same-sex marriage.

According to , Lord Ivar came out as gay two years ago. Now, the father-of-three daughters— Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — has planned to start a new life with his partner, James Coyle. Fortunately, Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, whom he married 24 years ago, is in full support of the pair’s union.

So much so, that she will be walking Lord Ivar down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," Penny told Daily Mail. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

Penny continued that since Ivar came out, he’s become a much better version of himself. "What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock," Penny continued. "He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

Lord Ivar and James are set to be married this summer. The happy couple will tie the knot in Devon — a stunning coastal county in the southwest of England. We wish them all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world! After all, love is love.

A royal wedding like no other: the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten marries his new husband – after being given away by his ex-wife

Published: 22:26, 23 September 2018 | Updated: 07:26, 24 September 2018

For many a couple it is a long and winding road to the altar. 

For Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a divorced father of three, the path to matrimonial happiness has meant navigating all manner of obstacles that would test the strongest of relationships.

But yesterday, almost exactly two years after coming out as gay, the younger son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, and cousin of the Queen, was marking the first day of his new life — married to a man.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Lord Ivar and his new love James Coyle exchanged rings and vows in front of 60 family and friends including his three proud daughters.

 Never before, surely, has there been a wedding quite like it — the first ever same-sex marriage in the extended Royal Family.

A gospel choir serenaded them, and the toasts from their two best men saw guests raising flutes of Pol Roger, Churchill’s favourite champagne.

Twenty-four years ago, Princess Margaret was among those present at the grandest of ceremonies when Ivar married his wife Penny at the family’s ancestral home in Essex.

There were no royal witnesses for this latest union, solemnised in the private chapel at Bridwell Park — a Grade I-listed mansion near the village of Uffculme in Devon, where Lord and Lady Mountbatten settled and raised their family — and celebrated with a lavish reception in the orangery.

But the goodwill from Ivar’s extended family was flowing. He has received the warmest of congratulations from his lifelong friend Prince Edward, to whose eldest child, Lady Louise, he is godfather. 

The Earl and Countess of Wessex , who are also godparents to his two eldest daughters, were unable to be there.

Edward and Sophie knew of their plans but sadly couldn’t come. ‘Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they were not free,’ said Ivar, ‘but they adore James.’ 

Because Bridwell is used for corporate events and weddings, the date for Ivar and James’s nuptials could not be changed.

‘It was the only weekend in the diary when the house was free,’ says James, an airline cabin services director who will return to work today with a long-haul flight to Rio de Janeiro.

The honeymoon to Greece or Croatia — the destination has still to be decided — has been postponed until later in the year.

But like everything that has happened to this stylish couple, who chose matching velvet smoking jackets for their black-tie wedding, it has been managed with a reassuringly unflappable cool.

It wasn’t, of course, all plain sailing. Ivar’s marriage to Penny finally ran out of steam in 2011 when they let it be known that they had drifted apart.

Then, two years ago, he caused a stir when he confessed to having struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 17-year marriage. In fact, he had known from his teens that he was bisexual. 

‘Penny was aware before we got married . . . that my attraction went both ways,’ he said. ‘She was understanding and I will always be grateful to her.’

He finally admitted he was gay after finding contentment with Glasgow-born James, whom he met in 2014 in the upmarket Swiss alpine resort of Verbier, where Ivar and his family have always skied.

The outcome was happier than either man dared hope. Remarkably, the revelation did not destroy Ivar’s relationship with ex-wife Penny but strengthened it. 

And when their girls Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and 16-year-old Luli suggested she give their father away, the unconventional idea took root.

The weekend-long events began with a welcome dinner for 30 hosted by the couple on Friday night. 

The ceremony itself began on Saturday afternoon, by which time another 30 guests had arrived. None brought gifts. Instead, James and Ivar asked friends to make a donation to Regain, the spinal injury charity.

The chapel at Bridwell, with its twin herds of red and fallow deer grazing in the 140-acre park, was bedecked with flowers. 

Nine singers from Bristol’s Teachers Rock gospel choir added another distinctly a la mode touch to the service, which began with Penny escorting her ex-husband up the chapel aisle.

Guests then moved on to the orangery for a dinner of monkfish, and speeches followed by dancing.

So far, so normal — but elsewhere there were some subtle differences from the traditional marriage ceremony. There was no cake to cut but instead a tiered collection of their favourite cheeses. Nor are there plans for either man to change his name.

‘I suppose if we had met ten years ago a civil partnership would have been nice, but now that marriage between a man and a man is legal it seems the right thing to do,’ says Lord Ivar.

‘I have had the whole marriage thing — and been very happy — but James hasn’t, so I see it as a validation of my love for him.’

To the surprise of many — including himself, one suspects — Ivar has taken coming out in his stride.

‘Being a Mountbatten was never a problem,’ he said.

The great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma has the photographs to remind him of his place in royal society.

The pictures show him at royal weddings and christenings, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace and alongside the Queen on the Royal Yacht Britannia. 

Now a new set of photographs is going up in the drawing room — not of master and mistress but of master and master.

the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten is set to marry his partner james coyle.

Fresh off the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding last month, the British Royal family is gearing up for another historic set of nuptials in the form of its first ever same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s third cousin once removed who came out as gay in September 2016, has announced his engagement to airline cabin services director James Coyle, 56.

The couple are set to wed in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s country estate in Devon later this year – and Lord Mountbatten, 55, told the MailOnline that the engagement marks the end of a "real journey".

"Being a Mountbatten was never the problem," the great-great grandson of Queen Victoria says. "It was the generation into which I was born.

"When I was growing up, it was known as ‚the love that dare not speak its name‘, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.

He continues: "Coming out" is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point."

Lord Ivar has three children with his ex-wife Penelope Thompson, who he wed in 1994 before divorcing in 2011. He told her he was bisexual before they married, but the pair later split as the secret of his sexuality began to take a toll on their replationship.

Penelope is supportive of Lord Ivar’s new relationship and even plans to give her ex-husband away at the wedding – a gesture first suggested by their daughters.

"It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched", she says.

She goes on: "What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he ‚came out‘. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

‚Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder… He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‚out‘ he’s a completely different person.

"I said to James this morning, ‚I don’t think I’ve ever felt as happy as I do right now‘," he says.

"I’m proud too. Finally I am able to love myself and the reason this marriage is acceptable to all of us, particularly our lovely daughters, is because of the character of James, the nature of the beast — the gorgeous beast."

‚low morals‘

More is known about Edwina’s extra-marital affairs, but in the 75-year-old dossier, an aristocratic source close to them, interviewed by the FBI in the 1940s, described them as “persons of extremely low morals”.

British historian Andrew Lownie used freedom of information laws to source the files, and quotes them in his new biography of the famous couple.

Another source in the FBI files claimed that Mountbatten’s private life made him “an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations.”

In Lownie’s book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Ron Perks, who was Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, also breaks his silence.

He tells how Mountbatten had one favoured destination, the Red House near Rabat, which “was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers”, which he had not realised at the time.

Homesexual acts were banned in the UK until 1967, and many memos about Mountbatten’s sexuality have been edited or destroyed since.

Lord mountbatten ‚was a homosexual with a lust for young boys‘ claims secret fbi dossier compiled by agents seeking dirt on british statesmen during world war two and the suez crisis

Published: 08:31, 18 August 2019 | Updated: 14:47, 18 August 2019

Prince Charles‘ uncle and valued mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‚homosexual with a perversion for young boys‘, according to a secret dossier compiled by the FBI.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs.

One source said Mountbatten’s penchant for young men made him ‚an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations‘. 

The files paint a very different picture of the last viceroy of India – who was hailed as a war hero who led allied efforts in southeast Asia before he was assassinated in 1979 by an IRA bomb.

It is not known why agents began compiling the dossier, but the FBI has long been known to keep compromising material on high-profile figures, most famously Martin Luther King.

The 75-year-old FBI documents were obtained through a freedom of information request by British historian Andrew Lownie, who has written a biography of the couple. 

In the book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Mountbatten’s former driver Ron Perks reveals that one of his boss’s favourite destinations was ‚an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers‘ called the Red House near Rabat.

Agents began compiling the file, which spans more than three decades, in February 1944, shortly after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. 

Following his appointment, the FBI interviewed Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, about another matter, and she brought up Mountbatten, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‚She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. 

‚She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. 

‚In Lady Decies‘ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.‘

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‚appears to have no special motive in making the above statements‘.

Agents opened more files on Mountbatten after World War II when he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Rumours about his personality swirled following his death, fulled by his comment: ‚Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds‘ (the couple pictured together)

But the FBI’s interest in Mountbatten peaked around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956. 

Rumours about Mountbatten’s sexuality have long swirled following his death 40 years ago.

The royal kept a large group of gay friends, including Noël Coward, Terence Rattigan, Ivor Novello and Tom Driberg, who reportedly referred to him as ‚Mountbottom‘. 

Lownie’s new book, to be published on Thursday, contains an interview with Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s.

Daly claims: ‚Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.‘

Tom Driberg, a Labour party MP who was openly gay, was a friend of Louis Mountbatten. Lownie’s book quotes an associate of Driberg as saying, “Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms—handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.”

Lord mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive red house is given an airing by the historian andrew lownie in a revealing new book. but did the elusive red house brothel truly exist in rabat?

Lord Mountbatten’s dirty laundry at the elusive Red House is given an airing by the historian Andrew Lownie in a revealing new book. But did the elusive Red House brothel truly exist in Rabat?

The Rabat Red House that served as a secret gay brothel attended by Lord Mountbatten exists no more with the only remnant being a foundation rock.

The building was mentioned in a yet to be published biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

Although Lownie’s investigation sheds little light on where the house is, research undertaken by MaltaToday points to a site in Rabat, just off the Roman Villa.

The building is no longer there and the only remnants of the Red House appear to be a red foundation rock and the name of the street, Red Tower Street.

Research for the biography unveils that the decorated war hero and uncle to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, used to frequent a gay brothel in Rabat during his time in Malta between 1950 and 1954.

Lownie describes this as the Red House, and quoting his source, Lownie told MaltaToday that The Red House functioned as “an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers.”

He said that Lord Mountbatten’s former chauffeur in Malta, now in his nineties, said that Mountbatten used his own personal car to get to the Rabat brothel.

The driver, Ron Perks, was once asked by Mountbatten to take him to this fabled house and he had acceded to the request.

“I found [the driver] from an interview in a newspaper cutting in East Anglia… and went to see him. During the course of the interview, he decided to tell me these things. He’s a very nice, serious, old school soldier,” Lownie said.

“It was an isolated, baronial-style building with a flat roof. One day as we were driving along, Mountbatten asked if I knew the Red House. I said I did and he asked if I would take him there, which I did. I never dropped him there, but he had his own car which he used often. He wouldn’t have asked me for nothing. I didn’t know what it was and only learnt after I came out of the service that it was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers. You’re taught to keep out of trouble in the Navy and I’ve never said a word about the incident until now,” Perks told Lownie.

In a chapter of Lownie’s book called ‘Rumours’, the biographer retells stories he heard about Mountbatten’s exploits in Malta.

“People told me stories about [Mountbatten] being invited on picnics in Malta and it was clearly a sexual invitation. There was also an affair with a woman in Malta but which was covered up. I wasn’t able to get anyone to speak on record about it. I think most of them didn’t want to say anything because of their loyalty towards him,” Lownie said.

Back in May 2018, Lownie used the Times of Malta to ask for any knowledge of The Red House by publishing a call for bear-magazine.com we reached out to him he said that that call was quite fruitless.

“I tried to locate [the house] and spoke to several people in Malta… tried various forums but with no luck. My source is in his nineties and was remembering back 70 years but he was pretty adamant about The Red House,” he said.

There is a red house, il-Palazz l-Aħmar, in the area known as Landrijiet in the outskirts of Rabat, today housing the restaurant Rogantino’bear-magazine.com its owner, Tony Grech, a history buff, insisted the Red House frequented by Lord Mountbatten was inside Rabat proper. “The Red House you’re looking for is close to the Roman Villa but it’s not there anymore. It has since been turned into a block of flats,” he told MaltaToday.

Grech’s claim was corroborated by an elderly acquaintance of Mountbatten – in Malta – who said the Red House was close to a drinking spot for horses.

Pictures of prominent photographers at the time, like Alfred Vella Gera and Richard Ellis do not seem to have documented The RedHouse.

Postcard collections compiled by the forensic expert Anthony Abela Medici do not feature the elusive house either, who said he was unaware of a red house on Red Tower Street.

Tony Grech and other sources told MaltaToday that the Red House belonged to the Von Brockdorff family, and at the time was used as a ‘party house’ by the British navy. The Von Brockdorffs eventually sold it and moved to Iklin, Grech suggested.

While he could not confirm the existence of a gay brothel in Rabat, Joseph Carmel Chetcuti, author of Queer Mediterranean Memories – a query history of Malta –said that Rabat was “quite gay friendly” at the time of Mountbatten.

“All I know is that [Mountbatten] used to go horse-riding and give young teenage boys a ride on the horse in Marsa… he used to hold them very close to him,” Chetcuti claimed.

Rumours of Lord Mountbatten and his Edwina’s sexual promiscuity have become part of the legend of the Mountbattens. But Lownie’s unearthing of the FBI files confirm the reputation of his alleged homosexuality to have been earned by Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin.Mountbatten himself had admitted later in life that he and his wife had spent “all [their] married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

He never confirmed, however, his interest in young men, and the story of the Red House in Rabat still proves elusive and largely based on hearsay.

Lownie told MaltaToday that he had encountered a 2002 Daily Express article which told the story of a possible illegitimate child of Lord Mountbatten, Andrew Guy, who was the adoptive son of a leading telegraphist — who served on some of the same ships as Lord Mountbatten – and a nurse to Lord Mountbatten’s daughters at Casa Medina in Malta.

The story seems to have not been followed up since that time and while Guy asked for Lord Mountbatten’s DNA for analysis, nothing else was reported.

Mountbatten was an admiral in the Royal Navy and served as Supreme Allied Commander, South East Command during the second World War. He also held the post of Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the NATO military Committee. He was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack on his private boat, in Mullaghmore in Ireland, in August 1979.

El tío favorito del príncipe carlos era, según una nueva biografía, bisexual y aficionado a los jóvenes militares. “pasamos nuestro matrimonio metiéndonos en las camas de otros”, llegó a afirmar

De lord Louis Mountbatten, el estimado mentor del príncipe Carlos de Inglaterra en su juventud, ha quedado para los británicos el recuerdo terrible de su asesinato por el IRA en 1979último virrey de la Indiadel imperio y sellar la independencia del subcontinente.

A las puertas del 40º aniversario de su muerte —que se cumple hoy—, el pasado jueves salió a la venta un libro que se ha atrevido a adentrarse en una faceta privada más indiscreta del personaje, que relata los avatares de su matrimonio abierto con lady Edwina y, por primera vez, descubre la afición del aristócrata y diplomático por chicos muy jóvenes. El autor, Andrew Lownie, sustenta la información en archivos desclasificados del FBI estadounidense.

Las revelaciones que inserta el título Los Mountbatten: their lives and loves (sus vidas y amores) van a tocar una fibra sensible de la familia real inglesa: un miembro de la nutrida prole de bisnietos de la reina Victoria, además de tío materno del duque Felipe de Edimburgo —el marido de Isabel II— y tío abuelo del príncipe Carlos, hoy heredero de la corona británica. El pariente al que todos apodaban Dickie, una personalidad de arrollador atractivo, fue consejero informal pero privilegiado de la actual monarca inglesa en los primeros años de su reinado. Y, más tarde, una suerte de figura paterna para su primogénito, Carlos.

“Pasamos nuestra vida matrimonial metiéndonos cada uno en las camas de otros”, llegó a admitir lord Mountbatten en un momento de debilidad y como resumen de su matrimonio con Edwina Ashley, también aristócrata y heredera de una ingente fortuna. Se casaron en 1922 y, a los dos años, emprendieron rumbo a Nueva York en compañía del entonces príncipe de Gales, el futuro y efímero rey Eduardo VIII, que entregó el trono supuestamente por el amor de Wallis Simpson. Entonces Louis se puso enfermo y su mujer no quiso que aquella amigdalitis le aguara la fiesta. A lo largo de la travesía, flirteó noche tras noche con jóvenes atraídos por una mujer guapa y rica, pero solo tras su desembarco estadounidense recabó al primer amante. Le siguieron muchos más.

Hasta aquí el libro no presenta grandes novedades sobre la historiografía oficiosa de una pareja que acabó cerrando un pacto para capear el escándalo que se cernía sobre la casa de los Windsor: Edwina apoyaría a su marido en su carrera y a cambio cada uno se labraría sus propias aventuras sexuales. La promiscuidad de ella llegó a ser objeto de algunos artículos que consiguieron superar la férrea censura de aquellos tiempos. Y que tuvieron su pico cuando una columnista británica aventuró que había entablado relaciones con un hombre “de color”, el intérprete Paul Robeson, aupado al éxito gracias a su Otelo en el West End. Se daba por hecho que lord Mountbatten también dormía en otros lechos, pero en la época aquello no se le tenía en cuenta.

Otros rumores, más soterrados, sobre la supuesta bisexualidad de Dickie siempre toparon con el bloqueo del establishment. Las relaciones gais estaban penadas entonces con la cárcel. Algunos de los documentos secretos recopilados por los servicios de inteligencia estadounidenses a lo largo de tres décadas son ahora recogidos en un libro que le atribuye una especial debilidad por los hombres jóvenes, y en especial los uniformados.

“Esa perversión”, sostenía la baronesa Decies, amiga de la reina madre, en sus contactos con el FBI, “le incapacita para cualquier clase de operación militar”, según reza uno de los pocos archivos que no acabaron destruidos. El chófer de lord Mountbatten en su consiguiente destino en Malta también confirmó sus frecuentes visitas a un burdel gay frecuentado por oficiales de la marina. El relato del libro incluye posteriores testimonios de los años sesenta y setenta sobre las artes seductoras del aristócrata centradas en oficiales y algún marinero, todos ellos muy jóvenes.

El libro sostiene que también hubo muchas mujeres en su vida, entre ellas la estrella hollywoodense Shirley MacLaine, y que las andanzas del lord no iban a la zaga de las de Edwina. Pero hasta ahora ella siempre había sido el foco de su disfuncional matrimonio. Un capítulo especial en la vida de lady Mountbatten fue su estrecha relación con el futuro fundador de la India independiente, Jawaharlal Nehru, cuando él era primer ministro y ella ejercía de esposa del último gobernador británico. Un secreto a voces. “Nehru era un viudo que estaba solo en la cúspide del poder, y mi madre se convirtió en su confidente”, confirmaba hace doce años en otro libro la hija menor de los Mountbatten, Pamela (Hicks es su apellido de casada). Siempre ha quedado en el aire si se trató de un amor platónico por ambas partes o si hubo algo más.

Edwina murió en 1960, dejando tras de sí una reputación de mujer disoluta para los cerrados parámetros de la época. Las variadas aficiones sexuales de Louis fueron en cambio enterradas bajo un código de silencio. Y solo han salido a la luz cuatro décadas después de que estallara una bomba colocada por los terroristas en el barco en el que navegaba por aguas cercanas al Ulster. Tenía 79 años y una reputación impoluta.

26. washing his hands

After the war, Mountbatten became Viceroy to India. That country only recently won its independence from the British empire, and Mountbatten’s job was to make the transition from colonial property to independent nation as seamless as possible.

This was no easy task. India was on the verge of civil war, divided between followers of Jawaharlal Nehru (who was also, awkwardly, Mountbatten’s wife’s boyfriend), who wanted a united, Hindu-led India, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who wanted a separate Muslim state. Rather than risk England’s involvement, Mountbatten insisted on granting India independence a.s.a.p.

40. his secret shame

The Baroness was not the only one to level allegations at Mountbatten. Mountbatten’s former driver revealed that he would frequently deliver Mountbatten to a gay brothel in Morocco. Another driver admitted to bringing boys as young as 12 to Mountbatten’s home. One male sex worker in England claims that the royal was one of his clients. He also said that Mountbatten preferred young men in uniform.

be careful: premium does not include xl on the website

Two days ago I got a 3 months Premium subscription, thinking my account would also be Premium on the GayRoyal-website. But that’s not true! Go to bear-magazine.com and buy an XL membership cause that also includes Premium in the app. It’s almost the same price as Premium by itself. And Premium in the app offers very little options. So beware.

Gayroyal und sein ruf – was verbirgt sich hinter dem image?

GayRoyal gehört definitiv zu den bekannteren Seiten der Szene. Sicherlich hat jeder Gay bereits von dem entsprechenden Angebot gehört. Besonders charakteristisch: die Seite galt bzw. gilt für viele als etwas „schmuddeliger“ als viele Seiten der Konkurrenz.

Häufig wird sie in direkten Bezug zu GayRomeo gesetzt und schneidet hier entsprechend ab. Hierbei sollte jedoch nicht vergessen werden, dass „schmuddelig“ nicht zwangsläufig „schlecht“ bedeutet. Die Zielgruppe ist jedoch definitiv eine andere.

Einige User schrieben (im Rahmen verschiedener Erfahrungsberichte im Internet) über Probleme mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen bear-magazine.com hier gilt jedoch wieder, dass der Zufriedenheitsfaktor zu einem hohen Maße von der individuellen Einstellung abhängig ist. Wer beispielsweise kein Problem mit einer vergleichsweise schlichten Menüführung hat und schnelle Abenteuer bevorzugt, dürfte mit GayRoyal nach wie vor auf seine Kosten kommen.

Vor allem mit Hinblick auf die Tatsache, dass sich in den letzten Wochen einige User ohnehin darüber beschwert haben, dass „ihr“ Gayromeo zum Schlechten hin verändert wurde, dürfte sich hier demnächst einiges tun.

Winging it

Son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, Lord Ivar has admitted that even his mother Janet, 81, supports him fully – saying everyone should ‚try everything once‘.

Meanwhile, Prince William recently said that it would be ‚absolutely fine‘ if any of his children came out as gay, saying he would ’support any decision they make‘.

And the Prince also made history back in 2016 when he appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

gear up for the first ever same-sex royal wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic event. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a gay wedding. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

“It was the girls’ idea,” she explained in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew, going into her marriage with Lord Ivar, that he identified as bisexual.

“What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun,” she said. “Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret, it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out, he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” Lord Ivar explained. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

Wer nutzt gayroyal? gibt es eine bestimmte zielgruppe?

Vielleicht auch aufgrund der Tatsache, dass es sich bei GayRoyal um einen absoluten Klassiker der Gay Szene handelt, tummeln sich hier – gerade im Vergleich zu anderen Seiten – oft (jedoch nicht nur) ältere User.

Grundlegend gab es hier auch nicht wirklich viele Änderungen mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen Nutzerkomfort. Die Menüführung wirkt einfach, bietet jedoch auch dementsprechend keine größeren Überraschungen oder Effekte.

Bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com – mit fokus auf chat und transparenz

Viele Gays ärgern sich beim Chatten über einen Mangel an Transparenz. Besonders nervig: das virtuelle „Gegenüber“ hat sich gegen das Hochladen eines Profilbildes entschieden oder schickt direkt ein „Dick-Pic“. Je nach individuellem Chatgrund kommen diese Vorgehensweisen nur selten gut an.

Seiten wie bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com setzen exakt an dieser Stelle an. Hier chatten viele User mit Bild. Gleichzeitig steht häufig ein Austausch auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen im Fokus. Der Anspruch der Nutzer ist dementsprechend hoch.

Wahrscheinlich ist es dieser positive Ruf, der nun dafür sorgt, dass diese Seiten – nach der Umstellung von GayRomeo und der Gestaltung bzw. den Inhalten von GayRoyal – sich einer so großen Beliebtheit erfreuen. Gay Chats sind schon lange nicht mehr alternativlos. User haben die Möglichkeit sich – je nach Seite auch im ersten Schritt kostenlos – einen persönlichen Eindruck vom Verhalten der User zu machen. Hier zeigt sich in der Regel schnell, inwieweit die betreffende Seite dafür geschaffen sein könnte, die eigenen Flirtambitionen zu unterstützen.

Zu platte Themen oder ein Hang zum Versenden von Nacktbildern werden hier schnell aufgedeckt. Gays, die sich auf der ernsthaften Suche nach einem festen Partner befinden, dürften hier abgeschreckt werden. Auch Schwule, die gerade erst ihr Coming Out hinter sich haben, suchen gegebenenfalls einen Chatpartner, mit dem sie sowohl reden als auch flirten können. Exakt an dieser Stelle kommen Seiten wie bear-magazine.com ins Spiel.

Gayromeo, gayroyal oder andere? eigene erfahrungen als basis für die richtige entscheidung

Der Chat Alltag in der Gay Szene zeigt, dass es auf der Suche nach der „perfekten Seite“ unerlässlich ist, seine eigenen Erfahrungen zu sammeln.

Berichte bzw. Erfahrungsberichte aus dem Internet können dabei helfen, sich einen ersten Eindruck über:

zu machen. Dennoch sollte hier nie zu vorschnell geurteilt werden. Denn: wer sagt einem Nutzer, dass er nicht auch in einer als „schmuddeligem Chat“ verrufenen Variante die „Liebe seines Lebens“ finden könnte?

Daher gilt es, auszutesten und sich gleichzeitig auch immer über die passenden Alternativen zu GayRoyal und Co. zu informieren. Wer offen bleibt und seine Möglichkeiten nutzt, erkennt schnell, dass das Chatten vor einem ersten Date mindestens ebenso wichtig ist, wie die richtigen Worte zum richtigen Zeitpunkt.

The first same-sex royal wedding has taken place – a historic occasion for the monarchy.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and his partner James Coyle married over the weekend, after announcing in June that they would be tying the knot.

The pair, who have been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016, reportedly exchanged vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon in front of 60 family and friends, according to the .

In september of 2016, lord ivar mountbatten, the queen’s cousin, came out as gay. and now he has announced that he is due to get married.

At the time of his coming out, Lord Mountbatten told the Mail on Sunday about his long-term relationship with James Coyle, an airline cabin services director, and the happiness he had found.

“Being a Mountbatten was never the problem,” he told the paper, “It was the generation into which I was born. When I was growing up, it was known as ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.”

Speaking to the MailOnline, Lord Mountbatten said: “All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Lord Mountbatten also confirmed that he had received a full blessing from the Royal Family. The wedding itself is due to take place later in the Summer, in Lord Mountbatten’s private chapel on his country estate in Devon.

In the article, Lord Mountbatten confirmed that it was him who was pushing for the marriage. “‘I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married,” he said.

He continued, saying: “‘For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”

Before he came out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Penny Thompson, although the couple divorced in 2011. However, showing that there is no bad blood between the couple, Penny will be the person walking Lord Mountbatten down the aisle.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said. She also mentioned how her and James had began getting on within “ten seconds” of meeting each other.

She further added: “What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

“‘Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Even though the MailOnline is associated with The Daily Mail, which is known to be quite homophobic, the majority of the comments on the article were incredibly supportive.

“Love is Love. Wishing them all the best especially the wife who certainly has a halo above her head in my estimation,” said one. Another said: “Heartening to read about such wonderful relationships and the understanding all round.”

And back in April it was found that nearly three quarters of British people didn’t object to a same-sex royal wedding, and that two-thirds were supportive of the idea.

First gay

When media have they finished discussing the wedding of Prince Harry with American actress Megan Markle, the royal family is again at the center of attention. And again because of the wedding! This time 55-year-old cousin of Queen Elizabeth II Lord Ivar Mountbatten married his beloved, 56-year-old man, James Coyle. It is noteworthy that this is the first gay wedding in the royal family.

Lord ivar is a divorcee

Lord Ivar Mountbatten was previously married to a woman named Penny, with whom he had three daughters. He reportedly told Penny before their engagement that he was bisexual, as reported by E! News.

Among the guests at the wedding, the ex-wife of the Lord was seen along with their three daughters. Despite the fact that they divorced back in 2011, the former spouses remained on good terms. According to the Queen’s brother himself, all 17 years while he lived with his wife, he doubted his sexual orientation, and only a few years ago dared to openly say that he was gay.

In fact, Penny walked Lord Mountbatten down the aisle on his wedding day. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.

British royalty changed their name from Saxa-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to distance themselves from their germanic heritage. Minor Royals such as Mountbatten followed suit with their own surnames. Interesting article and great aim for the site. I wouldn’t want factual errors to undermine this.

Oh! What Evil webs we weave! When we practice to deceive

Oh what a Tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive

There is a full documentary on Youtube about the various sins of the Royal Family. It is so scurrilous that I doubt a lot of it is true, although this bit seems to be. The Edwina-Nehru affair is widely known (there was a movie about it–I think it is called The Last Viceroy), and the bisexual rumors don’t disturb me, but the child porn charges are truly shocking. I must say I am also chagrined that Churchill said that about the Indian people. I think they are lovely people, and I think it was right to relinquish The Raj, but I regret the bloodshed that followed. Still, today India seems to be thriving, despite continued outrages against women. I’ve got a lot of opinions, don’t I?

Especially given Churchill’s atrocious appearance and manners. Ugh! SI tu n’es pas joli, soit poli!!

I see you have opted for ‚rumoured‘ when you have absolutely not proof of any of this, in fact where is the proof? Mountbatten was not well liked by some members of the royal family the Duke and Duchess of Windsor for one.

Mountbatten was extremely close to the Duke of Windsor until 1937 (as you can see from the photo above) I don’t think the Duke ever forgave him for not attending his weeding to Wallace

Well the Duke ear himself a bloody traitor to his nation and Jan an affair with Louis during the empire tours. As for that Yankee harlot and usurper, a pro Nazi bitch. I would never learn to those could say.

No member of the Royal family was present at the Duke’s wedding in France and quite rightly so. That Yankee harlot has never allowed to received by any noble or Royal house in Europe.

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Prince Charles from an early age knew Dickie had it in for him .

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Yes Uncle Dick enouraged Charles with young boys at a hotel on the Buckingham Palace Road

Was Louis Mountbatten the 1st or 2nd cousin of Edward v111 and his brother George v1?

He was second cousin of both Edward VIII and George VI

Lord Mountbatten has been linked to a Major pedophile scandal regarding an Irish school boys

His cousin Edward has being known to be bisexual. There are rumors of his nephew prince Phillips to be also bisexual and pedophile. Charles we know has had homosexual experiences. His closeness to Saville and a pedophile bishop and to his uncle Lord Mountbatten and the unpublished spider notes makes people wonder if Charles is also bisexual and a pedophile or what?

And all the nice strong French lads when he was in France " painting " Yeah painting BOLLOCKS!!

It spells Bad Taste to me, which is the opposite of Gay.

It’s really easy to create stories about the dead since they aren’t here to defend themselves.

Contrary to your insinuation, these "stories" were not created after Lord Mountbatten’s death. All of it was well known during his lifetime. Read a few books to educated yourself about the particulars. I did (your blogger).

All of it was well substantiated or just well publicized by the media ?

Don’t be so lazy, spouting conspiracy theories. Read some books, get the facts before challenging anyone’s comments. Sheesh! — your blogger.

Is there anymore articles that refrenref mountbatton and pedophilia

I really admire this man but cannot imagine him involved in an international paedophile gang using children, that is revolting!!

That’s a bit hard for me to accept too . It’s like accepting Sally Hemmings had Thomas Jefferson’s bastard . Might be true but seems so out of character . Lovers of liberty lost a dear friend that day in 1979 .

You do know that DNA confirmed Jefferson’s mixed descendants? The white and black descendants even met up on tv.

I just watched a documentary on YouTube about this disgusting, creepy pig called "Secrets of the Royals-Lord Mountbatten:Hero or Villian"….I wonder why no mention of the pedophile ring he was rumored to be involved in?? I also wondered if he somehow cleverly murdered his wife, Edwina. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Queen Elizabeth Bowles-Lyon plotted his bear-magazine.com how they hated each other and the fact that Hitler himself is quoted as calling her, the most dangerous woman alive. I put nothing past this disgusting inbred, narcissistic, sociopathic, narcopathic family, as well as other monarchs, emporers, etc. Can’t believe people admire such filthy, morally corrupt slime yet condemn poor people, minorities, homosexuals, those with disabilities etc!

Wer diesen mix zu schätzen weiß, dürfte sich auf gayroyal wohlfühlen. doch was ist eigentlich mit dem rest?

Was ist mit Gays, die sich nicht mit den neuen Seiten und Funktionen von GayRomeo anfreunden können und sich nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen Anbieter befinden?

Wie bereits erwähnt, sind die Möglichkeiten sehr vielseitig. Nun gilt es „nur“ noch, keine Einbußen mit Hinblick auf die Qualität der Seiten hinzunehmen. Wem GayRoyal zu fetisch bzw. zu speziell ist, kann sich unter anderem auf bear-magazine.com und auf bear-magazine.com umsehen. Beide Seiten bieten einen bunten Mix aus Chat, Flirt und weiteren Extras und sind in der Regel bei Gays aus nahezu allen Altersgruppen beliebt.

Prince Charles’ mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‘homosexual with a perversion for young boys’, according to unearthed FBI files.

The celebrated war hero, who was the last Viceroy of India, and his wife Edwina Mountbatten were described as ‘persons of extremely low morals’ in intelligence files, which claim both frequently had extramarital affairs.

The 75-year-old FBI documents came out after being obtained through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request made by British historian Andrew Lownie for his new biography The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves.

The files were started in February 1944, following Mountbatten’s appointment as supreme allied commander of southeast Asia.

In one interview on another matter with author and socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, she claimed Mountbatten had a penchant for young men that made him an ‘unfit man to direct any sort of military operations’, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‘She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

‘She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

‘In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.’

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‘appears to have no special motive in making the above statements’.

In the new book, Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s, also claims: ‘Tom [Driberg] said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.’

Rumours of Mountbatten’s homosexuality have circulated for decades, with his group of gay friends allegedly referring to him by the nickname ‘Mountbottom’.

In addition, gossip about his and his wife’s extra lovers have swirled, spurred by his comment: ‘Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.’

It’s not known why FBI agents began putting together the dossier, which spans over more than three decades.

Agents opened further files on Mountbatten – described by Prince Charles as the ‘grandfather I never had’ – after World War II after he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Their interest in the British Navy officer and statesman, who was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack in 1979, reached an all-time high around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956.

The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves will be published on August 22.

Prince Philip’s cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten will be fighting the elements after joining the cast of this year’s Treasure Island with Bear Grylls.

The 56-year-old, who is a member of the extended Royal Family, has previously made history as being the first in the bloodline to be in an open same-sex relationship.

He’s now joining the series in hopes to show a new side of the upper middle class family he lives in, and to chance perceptions of the aristocracy.

He told The Sun: ‘They automatically assume that a lord is going to be about 80 years old, wear tweed suits and act like they’ve stepped out of Downton Abbey.

‘Don’t get me wrong, my upbringing was almost like a real life Downton Abbey, but I don’t think I am like that, I’m an openly gay lord.

Lord Mountbatten married James Coyle last year, and given away by his ex-wife Lady Penny Mountbatten, with whom he has three daughters.

Mountbatten will be fighting for a £100,000 prize fund on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, in scenes set to air later this year.

However, the show almost started with a disaster after Bear Grylls himself was stung by a bee, which he is deathly allergic to, on route to the actual island.

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect”

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

[quote]Since the assassination of Mountbatten in an IRA bomb attack 40 years ago, rumours have swirled about his sexuality, fuelled by his comment: “ a and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

Lord Mountbatten is a father to three children with ex-wife Penelope (Penny) Thompson.

In an official statement, he said that he has struggled with his sexuality all along.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

Posted by liamfoley63 in Kingdom of EuropeRoyal MistressRoyal SuccessionRoyal Titles

1st Earl Mountbatten of BurmaAssassinationFirst Sea LordIrish Republican ArmyLady BarbourneLord Louis MountbattenPrince Louis of BattenbergSuez Crisis of 1956Viceroy of IndiaYola Letellier

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

Danielle Garrand is a social media producer and trending reporter for CBS News.

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Gayroyal profiles:

So now it’s time to get your profile ready for some action. Start by navigating to the GayRoyal log in page and sign in to your account. We know that this site is all about hookups and casual sex, but that still isn’t an excuse to be sleazy. Use your GayRoyal profile as an opportunity to be your most desirable and attractive self. Most hookup sites will ask you questions to help you find the best possible matches. The GayRoyal questions are pretty concise, so answering all of them is a totally doable task. And yes, we definitely suggest answering all of them. They have to do with your desires, ideals, and bottom lines, so the more information you share, the more compatible your matches will be. We know, filling out your dating site profile isn’t exactly your idea of a good time. But put some effort into yours and we promise it will pay dividends. For the record, a good profile always includes several profile pictures. Imagine you wanted to search GayRoyal for matches and all the profiles you saw only had a single picture? It’s just not the way to get clicks, likes, and messages. Take a little time to feel good about your profile and we promise you won’t regret it.

Gayroyal app:

According to our research, this dating site has an app available for iPhone and Android. The GayRoyal mobile app is a pretty good experience. While it’s more convenient to stay signed in using your app, some people might not want to download it. If this sounds like you, we want to let you know that you can get basically all the same features using the mobile site instead of the app. If you open the site in your mobile browser, you’ll be able to access the GayRoyal desktop features using your phone. Whether you decide to download the app or not, the good news is that you’ve got a lot of options for how to interact with the site.

Safety:

Let’s start with the biggest question you have: Is GayRoyal safe? Before you dive head first into a new dating site, it’s always a good idea to do some research. This becomes especially necessary when you’re looking at hookup and casual sex sites. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scams out there. We’d also suggest you refer to the GayRoyal safety tips page to see how the site keeps its members safe. If you can’t find a safety page for the site, that might be a red flag right there. If you ever have contact with suspicious people on this dating site, please get in touch with GayRoyal help. Report the incident to help protect you and the site’s other members. We also encourage you to rely on your instincts when interacting with new people on a hookup site. If the encounter starts to feel fishy, go with your gut. The site’s moderators should always be informed of weird stuff happening on their site. So reach out and let them know if you suspect a scam. You can also get in touch with them if you need to cancel GayRoyal membership at any point.

Value for money:

Okay, the next thing everyone wants to know: Is GayRoyal free? It’s very common for dating sites like this one to advertise as free to join or to offer a free trial period. And yes, It’s technically free to join. But most users with a free membership have a hard time getting the most out of the site. If you’re using GayRoyal free, you might find that you have restricted access or limited options when it comes to some of the site’s most important features, like messaging. Even the sites that are truly free to use can be noisy and full of distracting ads. For some people, this can be a big pain. If you have a hard time with busy ads, it might even be worth it to use the paid version of the site. This is where value takes on a personal significance for each of us. That’s right, we’re about to get all philosophical on you. When it comes to online dating, the idea of value is a moving target. This means that your idea of value might be really different from another person’s. Are you looking at value as the cost per date or the number of dates you actually go on? Or maybe you’re interested in marriage and value has to do with meeting that right person. Before joining a site like GayRoyal, you might want to spend a little time defining the value you hope to get out of the site. Envisioning who you want to meet on a dating site and what kind of connection you’d like to create with them is an important first step. Once you have a clear sense of this, you’re much more likely to find experiences that line up with your individual definition of dating success.

James coyle verlobung mit lord ivar mountbatten

„Noch bist du kein Lord, Jimmy“, witzelte Lord Ivar Mountbatten in diesem Korkenknall-Post bei Instagram anlässlich der Bekanntgabe der Verlobung mit James Coyle (Foto). 

Peut-on donner le prix Nobel de la paix à la géniale lady Penny Mountbatten, qui se fait photographier avec son ex mari et le futur nouveau mari d’icelui ?Royal family’s first gay wedding: The story of the Queen’s cousin bear-magazine.com via @MailOnline

Two years after he announced he was gay, lord mountbatten, queen elizabeth ii’s cousin and a descendant of the royal family, ties the knot with james coyle.

Not long after Meghan Markle made history in May as the first mixed-race American woman to marry into the British royal family, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, has married James Coyle in what is the monarchy’s first-ever same-sex wedding, Coyle is an airline cabin services director whom Lord Ivar met back in 2014.

The couple has been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016 and exchanged their wedding vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon on last Saturday, the 22nd of September, 2018. The ceremonies lasted throughout the weekend.

Lord Mountbatten, who is also a descendant of Queen Victoria, has three children with his former wife, Penny Mountbatten. His wife and children have been very supportive of her husband’s relationship with Coyle.

The royal family still follows the rules of the Royal Marriages Act passed in 1772, which requires the first six people in the line of succession to receive permission from the ruling monarch before they tie the knot. But because Lord Mountbatten is not in the line of succession, he didn’t require the ruling monarch’s nod.

While most of the royal family wasn’t present for the wedding, the newlyweds celebrated with close family and friends. Taking to Instagram, Lord Ivar Mountbatten said, “Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather.” Thanking his family for their support, he added, “Most importantly, a massive thanks to my three gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened!”

“And finally, the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect…”, the newlywed Lord Mountbatten posted on Instagram.

The couple exchanged customized rings made for them by Milly Maunder and are currently honeymooning in Brazil.

Love = love!

Move over, Meghan Markle and unimportant royal family drama — the first ever gay royal wedding is set to take place this summer, just a few months after Prince Harry and Meghan’s, and right before Princess Eugenie’s nuptials.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten (say that three times fast!), is set to marry his partner, James Coyle in the monarchy’s fist ever gay royal wedding. It’s the first ever same-sex marriage in the family, and it’s certainly historic. Lord Ivar was previously married to his now ex-wife, Penny, before coming out publicly. By the time he came out, he was already deeply in love with James Coyle, and never looked back.

A post shared by Ivar (@ivar_mountbatten) on Apr 7, 2018 at 7:06am PDT

In a statement to the , Lord Ivar, “struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 16 year marriage,” and had told his former spouse he was bisexual even before he proposed. His former wife is a true gem, though, because she’s planning to walk Lord Ivar down the aisle — and idea straight from the daughter they share.

If you’re wondering if this gay royal wedding will have as much fanfare as Prince Harry’s — think again. The couple plans to wed in a private chapel on Lord Ivar’s estate in Devon, and party with roughly 100 friends and family members thereafter.

“We’ll have lovely food and really good music, but there won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that,” Coyle confessed to Daily Mail. Lord Ivar added that they’ll “probably have cheese, instead of cake.”

Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect……#wedidit #wonderfulday #despitetherain

While Lord Mountbatten and Coyle were able to be legally wed in England, Northern Ireland still remains the only part of the UK without same-sex marriage.

Will queen elizabeth attend the first gay royal wedding?

Penny is set to give her ex-husband away to his new partner at the “small” ceremony.

“It’s just for the girls and close family and friends,” he said. It doesn’t seem like any royals are attending the wedding. Prince Edward and his wife Sophie Rhys-Jones — also known as the Earl and Countess of Essex — are the godparents of Mountbatten’s daughters, but they won’t be able to attend, either.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” he said. “Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.”

The first gay royal wedding will have a reception for 120 guests with food and music — but no cake. “There won’t be two men in tuxedos on a cake, white doves or anything twee or contrived like that, will there?” Coyle said.

“We’ll probably have cheese, instead of cake,” Mountbatten said.

Get ready, y’all, because another royal wedding is in the works! And much like Meghan Markle’s nuptials to Prince Harry, it will be groundbreaking. Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, is set to become the first royal in history to have a same-sex marriage.

According to , Lord Ivar came out as gay two years ago. Now, the father-of-three daughters— Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and Luli, 15 — has planned to start a new life with his partner, James Coyle. Fortunately, Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, whom he married 24 years ago, is in full support of the pair’s union.

So much so, that she will be walking Lord Ivar down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," Penny told Daily Mail. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

Penny continued that since Ivar came out, he’s become a much better version of himself. "What I don’t think Ivar realizes is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun," she said. "Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock," Penny continued. "He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier."

Lord Ivar and James are set to be married this summer. The happy couple will tie the knot in Devon — a stunning coastal county in the southwest of England. We wish them all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world! After all, love is love.

A royal wedding like no other: the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten marries his new husband – after being given away by his ex-wife

Published: 22:26, 23 September 2018 | Updated: 07:26, 24 September 2018

For many a couple it is a long and winding road to the altar. 

For Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a divorced father of three, the path to matrimonial happiness has meant navigating all manner of obstacles that would test the strongest of relationships.

But yesterday, almost exactly two years after coming out as gay, the younger son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, and cousin of the Queen, was marking the first day of his new life — married to a man.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Lord Ivar and his new love James Coyle exchanged rings and vows in front of 60 family and friends including his three proud daughters.

 Never before, surely, has there been a wedding quite like it — the first ever same-sex marriage in the extended Royal Family.

A gospel choir serenaded them, and the toasts from their two best men saw guests raising flutes of Pol Roger, Churchill’s favourite champagne.

Twenty-four years ago, Princess Margaret was among those present at the grandest of ceremonies when Ivar married his wife Penny at the family’s ancestral home in Essex.

There were no royal witnesses for this latest union, solemnised in the private chapel at Bridwell Park — a Grade I-listed mansion near the village of Uffculme in Devon, where Lord and Lady Mountbatten settled and raised their family — and celebrated with a lavish reception in the orangery.

But the goodwill from Ivar’s extended family was flowing. He has received the warmest of congratulations from his lifelong friend Prince Edward, to whose eldest child, Lady Louise, he is godfather. 

The Earl and Countess of Wessex , who are also godparents to his two eldest daughters, were unable to be there.

Edward and Sophie knew of their plans but sadly couldn’t come. ‘Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they were not free,’ said Ivar, ‘but they adore James.’ 

Because Bridwell is used for corporate events and weddings, the date for Ivar and James’s nuptials could not be changed.

‘It was the only weekend in the diary when the house was free,’ says James, an airline cabin services director who will return to work today with a long-haul flight to Rio de Janeiro.

The honeymoon to Greece or Croatia — the destination has still to be decided — has been postponed until later in the year.

But like everything that has happened to this stylish couple, who chose matching velvet smoking jackets for their black-tie wedding, it has been managed with a reassuringly unflappable cool.

It wasn’t, of course, all plain sailing. Ivar’s marriage to Penny finally ran out of steam in 2011 when they let it be known that they had drifted apart.

Then, two years ago, he caused a stir when he confessed to having struggled with his sexuality throughout most of that 17-year marriage. In fact, he had known from his teens that he was bisexual. 

‘Penny was aware before we got married . . . that my attraction went both ways,’ he said. ‘She was understanding and I will always be grateful to her.’

He finally admitted he was gay after finding contentment with Glasgow-born James, whom he met in 2014 in the upmarket Swiss alpine resort of Verbier, where Ivar and his family have always skied.

The outcome was happier than either man dared hope. Remarkably, the revelation did not destroy Ivar’s relationship with ex-wife Penny but strengthened it. 

And when their girls Ella, 22, Alix, 20, and 16-year-old Luli suggested she give their father away, the unconventional idea took root.

The weekend-long events began with a welcome dinner for 30 hosted by the couple on Friday night. 

The ceremony itself began on Saturday afternoon, by which time another 30 guests had arrived. None brought gifts. Instead, James and Ivar asked friends to make a donation to Regain, the spinal injury charity.

The chapel at Bridwell, with its twin herds of red and fallow deer grazing in the 140-acre park, was bedecked with flowers. 

Nine singers from Bristol’s Teachers Rock gospel choir added another distinctly a la mode touch to the service, which began with Penny escorting her ex-husband up the chapel aisle.

Guests then moved on to the orangery for a dinner of monkfish, and speeches followed by dancing.

So far, so normal — but elsewhere there were some subtle differences from the traditional marriage ceremony. There was no cake to cut but instead a tiered collection of their favourite cheeses. Nor are there plans for either man to change his name.

‘I suppose if we had met ten years ago a civil partnership would have been nice, but now that marriage between a man and a man is legal it seems the right thing to do,’ says Lord Ivar.

‘I have had the whole marriage thing — and been very happy — but James hasn’t, so I see it as a validation of my love for him.’

To the surprise of many — including himself, one suspects — Ivar has taken coming out in his stride.

‘Being a Mountbatten was never a problem,’ he said.

The great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria and great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma has the photographs to remind him of his place in royal society.

The pictures show him at royal weddings and christenings, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace and alongside the Queen on the Royal Yacht Britannia. 

Now a new set of photographs is going up in the drawing room — not of master and mistress but of master and master.

the queen’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten is set to marry his partner james coyle.

Fresh off the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding last month, the British Royal family is gearing up for another historic set of nuptials in the form of its first ever same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, the Queen’s third cousin once removed who came out as gay in September 2016, has announced his engagement to airline cabin services director James Coyle, 56.

The couple are set to wed in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s country estate in Devon later this year – and Lord Mountbatten, 55, told the MailOnline that the engagement marks the end of a "real journey".

"Being a Mountbatten was never the problem," the great-great grandson of Queen Victoria says. "It was the generation into which I was born.

"When I was growing up, it was known as ‚the love that dare not speak its name‘, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.

He continues: "Coming out" is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point."

Lord Ivar has three children with his ex-wife Penelope Thompson, who he wed in 1994 before divorcing in 2011. He told her he was bisexual before they married, but the pair later split as the secret of his sexuality began to take a toll on their replationship.

Penelope is supportive of Lord Ivar’s new relationship and even plans to give her ex-husband away at the wedding – a gesture first suggested by their daughters.

"It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched", she says.

She goes on: "What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he ‚came out‘. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

‚Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder… He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s ‚out‘ he’s a completely different person.

"I said to James this morning, ‚I don’t think I’ve ever felt as happy as I do right now‘," he says.

"I’m proud too. Finally I am able to love myself and the reason this marriage is acceptable to all of us, particularly our lovely daughters, is because of the character of James, the nature of the beast — the gorgeous beast."

‚low morals‘

More is known about Edwina’s extra-marital affairs, but in the 75-year-old dossier, an aristocratic source close to them, interviewed by the FBI in the 1940s, described them as “persons of extremely low morals”.

British historian Andrew Lownie used freedom of information laws to source the files, and quotes them in his new biography of the famous couple.

Another source in the FBI files claimed that Mountbatten’s private life made him “an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations.”

In Lownie’s book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Ron Perks, who was Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, also breaks his silence.

He tells how Mountbatten had one favoured destination, the Red House near Rabat, which “was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers”, which he had not realised at the time.

Homesexual acts were banned in the UK until 1967, and many memos about Mountbatten’s sexuality have been edited or destroyed since.

Lord mountbatten ‚was a homosexual with a lust for young boys‘ claims secret fbi dossier compiled by agents seeking dirt on british statesmen during world war two and the suez crisis

Published: 08:31, 18 August 2019 | Updated: 14:47, 18 August 2019

Prince Charles‘ uncle and valued mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‚homosexual with a perversion for young boys‘, according to a secret dossier compiled by the FBI.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs.

One source said Mountbatten’s penchant for young men made him ‚an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations‘. 

The files paint a very different picture of the last viceroy of India – who was hailed as a war hero who led allied efforts in southeast Asia before he was assassinated in 1979 by an IRA bomb.

The intelligence files describe the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma and his wife Edwina (pictured in their younger days) as ‚persons of extremely low morals‘ who frequently had extramarital affairs

It is not known why agents began compiling the dossier, but the FBI has long been known to keep compromising material on high-profile figures, most famously Martin Luther King.

The 75-year-old FBI documents were obtained through a freedom of information request by British historian Andrew Lownie, who has written a biography of the couple. 

In the book, The Mountbattens: their Lives & Loves, Mountbatten’s former driver Ron Perks reveals that one of his boss’s favourite destinations was ‚an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers‘ called the Red House near Rabat.

Agents began compiling the file, which spans more than three decades, in February 1944, shortly after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. 

Following his appointment, the FBI interviewed Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, about another matter, and she brought up Mountbatten, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‚She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. 

‚She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. 

‚In Lady Decies‘ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.‘

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‚appears to have no special motive in making the above statements‘.

Agents opened more files on Mountbatten after World War II when he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Rumours about his personality swirled following his death, fulled by his comment: ‚Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds‘ (the couple pictured together)

But the FBI’s interest in Mountbatten peaked around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956. 

Rumours about Mountbatten’s sexuality have long swirled following his death 40 years ago.

The royal kept a large group of gay friends, including Noël Coward, Terence Rattigan, Ivor Novello and Tom Driberg, who reportedly referred to him as ‚Mountbottom‘. 

Lownie’s new book, to be published on Thursday, contains an interview with Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s.

Daly claims: ‚Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.‘

According to the , Lownie’s book hints the Life Guards was used as a “fruitful source” of young men for Louis Mountbatten.

Tom Driberg, a Labour party MP who was openly gay, was a friend of Louis Mountbatten. Lownie’s book quotes an associate of Driberg as saying, “Tom said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms—handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.”

The Rabat Red House that served as a secret gay brothel attended by Lord Mountbatten exists no more with the only remnant being a foundation rock.

The building was mentioned in a yet to be published biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

Although Lownie’s investigation sheds little light on where the house is, research undertaken by MaltaToday points to a site in Rabat, just off the Roman Villa.

The building is no longer there and the only remnants of the Red House appear to be a red foundation rock and the name of the street, Red Tower Street.

Research for the biography unveils that the decorated war hero and uncle to Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, used to frequent a gay brothel in Rabat during his time in Malta between 1950 and 1954.

Lownie describes this as the Red House, and quoting his source, Lownie told MaltaToday that The Red House functioned as “an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers.”

He said that Lord Mountbatten’s former chauffeur in Malta, now in his nineties, said that Mountbatten used his own personal car to get to the Rabat brothel.

The driver, Ron Perks, was once asked by Mountbatten to take him to this fabled house and he had acceded to the request.

“I found [the driver] from an interview in a newspaper cutting in East Anglia… and went to see him. During the course of the interview, he decided to tell me these things. He’s a very nice, serious, old school soldier,” Lownie said.

“It was an isolated, baronial-style building with a flat roof. One day as we were driving along, Mountbatten asked if I knew the Red House. I said I did and he asked if I would take him there, which I did. I never dropped him there, but he had his own car which he used often. He wouldn’t have asked me for nothing. I didn’t know what it was and only learnt after I came out of the service that it was an upmarket gay brothel used by senior naval officers. You’re taught to keep out of trouble in the Navy and I’ve never said a word about the incident until now,” Perks told Lownie.

In a chapter of Lownie’s book called ‘Rumours’, the biographer retells stories he heard about Mountbatten’s exploits in Malta.

“People told me stories about [Mountbatten] being invited on picnics in Malta and it was clearly a sexual invitation. There was also an affair with a woman in Malta but which was covered up. I wasn’t able to get anyone to speak on record about it. I think most of them didn’t want to say anything because of their loyalty towards him,” Lownie said.

Back in May 2018, Lownie used the Times of Malta to ask for any knowledge of The Red House by publishing a call for bear-magazine.com we reached out to him he said that that call was quite fruitless.

“I tried to locate [the house] and spoke to several people in Malta… tried various forums but with no luck. My source is in his nineties and was remembering back 70 years but he was pretty adamant about The Red House,” he said.

There is a red house, il-Palazz l-Aħmar, in the area known as Landrijiet in the outskirts of Rabat, today housing the restaurant Rogantino’bear-magazine.com its owner, Tony Grech, a history buff, insisted the Red House frequented by Lord Mountbatten was inside Rabat proper. “The Red House you’re looking for is close to the Roman Villa but it’s not there anymore. It has since been turned into a block of flats,” he told MaltaToday.

Grech’s claim was corroborated by an elderly acquaintance of Mountbatten – in Malta – who said the Red House was close to a drinking spot for horses.

Pictures of prominent photographers at the time, like Alfred Vella Gera and Richard Ellis do not seem to have documented The RedHouse.

Postcard collections compiled by the forensic expert Anthony Abela Medici do not feature the elusive house either, who said he was unaware of a red house on Red Tower Street.

Tony Grech and other sources told MaltaToday that the Red House belonged to the Von Brockdorff family, and at the time was used as a ‘party house’ by the British navy. The Von Brockdorffs eventually sold it and moved to Iklin, Grech suggested.

While he could not confirm the existence of a gay brothel in Rabat, Joseph Carmel Chetcuti, author of Queer Mediterranean Memories – a query history of Malta –said that Rabat was “quite gay friendly” at the time of Mountbatten.

“All I know is that [Mountbatten] used to go horse-riding and give young teenage boys a ride on the horse in Marsa… he used to hold them very close to him,” Chetcuti claimed.

Rumours of Lord Mountbatten and his Edwina’s sexual promiscuity have become part of the legend of the Mountbattens. But Lownie’s unearthing of the FBI files confirm the reputation of his alleged homosexuality to have been earned by Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin.Mountbatten himself had admitted later in life that he and his wife had spent “all [their] married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

He never confirmed, however, his interest in young men, and the story of the Red House in Rabat still proves elusive and largely based on hearsay.

Lownie told MaltaToday that he had encountered a 2002 Daily Express article which told the story of a possible illegitimate child of Lord Mountbatten, Andrew Guy, who was the adoptive son of a leading telegraphist — who served on some of the same ships as Lord Mountbatten – and a nurse to Lord Mountbatten’s daughters at Casa Medina in Malta.

The story seems to have not been followed up since that time and while Guy asked for Lord Mountbatten’s DNA for analysis, nothing else was reported.

Mountbatten was an admiral in the Royal Navy and served as Supreme Allied Commander, South East Command during the second World War. He also held the post of Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the NATO military Committee. He was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack on his private boat, in Mullaghmore in Ireland, in August 1979.

El tío favorito del príncipe carlos era, según una nueva biografía, bisexual y aficionado a los jóvenes militares. “pasamos nuestro matrimonio metiéndonos en las camas de otros”, llegó a afirmar

De lord Louis Mountbatten, el estimado mentor del príncipe Carlos de Inglaterra en su juventud, ha quedado para los británicos el recuerdo terrible de su asesinato por el IRA en 1979último virrey de la Indiadel imperio y sellar la independencia del subcontinente.

A las puertas del 40º aniversario de su muerte —que se cumple hoy—, el pasado jueves salió a la venta un libro que se ha atrevido a adentrarse en una faceta privada más indiscreta del personaje, que relata los avatares de su matrimonio abierto con lady Edwina y, por primera vez, descubre la afición del aristócrata y diplomático por chicos muy jóvenes. El autor, Andrew Lownie, sustenta la información en archivos desclasificados del FBI estadounidense.

Las revelaciones que inserta el título Los Mountbatten: their lives and loves (sus vidas y amores) van a tocar una fibra sensible de la familia real inglesa: un miembro de la nutrida prole de bisnietos de la reina Victoria, además de tío materno del duque Felipe de Edimburgo —el marido de Isabel II— y tío abuelo del príncipe Carlos, hoy heredero de la corona británica. El pariente al que todos apodaban Dickie, una personalidad de arrollador atractivo, fue consejero informal pero privilegiado de la actual monarca inglesa en los primeros años de su reinado. Y, más tarde, una suerte de figura paterna para su primogénito, Carlos.

“Pasamos nuestra vida matrimonial metiéndonos cada uno en las camas de otros”, llegó a admitir lord Mountbatten en un momento de debilidad y como resumen de su matrimonio con Edwina Ashley, también aristócrata y heredera de una ingente fortuna. Se casaron en 1922 y, a los dos años, emprendieron rumbo a Nueva York en compañía del entonces príncipe de Gales, el futuro y efímero rey Eduardo VIII, que entregó el trono supuestamente por el amor de Wallis Simpson. Entonces Louis se puso enfermo y su mujer no quiso que aquella amigdalitis le aguara la fiesta. A lo largo de la travesía, flirteó noche tras noche con jóvenes atraídos por una mujer guapa y rica, pero solo tras su desembarco estadounidense recabó al primer amante. Le siguieron muchos más.

Hasta aquí el libro no presenta grandes novedades sobre la historiografía oficiosa de una pareja que acabó cerrando un pacto para capear el escándalo que se cernía sobre la casa de los Windsor: Edwina apoyaría a su marido en su carrera y a cambio cada uno se labraría sus propias aventuras sexuales. La promiscuidad de ella llegó a ser objeto de algunos artículos que consiguieron superar la férrea censura de aquellos tiempos. Y que tuvieron su pico cuando una columnista británica aventuró que había entablado relaciones con un hombre “de color”, el intérprete Paul Robeson, aupado al éxito gracias a su Otelo en el West End. Se daba por hecho que lord Mountbatten también dormía en otros lechos, pero en la época aquello no se le tenía en cuenta.

Otros rumores, más soterrados, sobre la supuesta bisexualidad de Dickie siempre toparon con el bloqueo del establishment. Las relaciones gais estaban penadas entonces con la cárcel. Algunos de los documentos secretos recopilados por los servicios de inteligencia estadounidenses a lo largo de tres décadas son ahora recogidos en un libro que le atribuye una especial debilidad por los hombres jóvenes, y en especial los uniformados.

“Esa perversión”, sostenía la baronesa Decies, amiga de la reina madre, en sus contactos con el FBI, “le incapacita para cualquier clase de operación militar”, según reza uno de los pocos archivos que no acabaron destruidos. El chófer de lord Mountbatten en su consiguiente destino en Malta también confirmó sus frecuentes visitas a un burdel gay frecuentado por oficiales de la marina. El relato del libro incluye posteriores testimonios de los años sesenta y setenta sobre las artes seductoras del aristócrata centradas en oficiales y algún marinero, todos ellos muy jóvenes.

El libro sostiene que también hubo muchas mujeres en su vida, entre ellas la estrella hollywoodense Shirley MacLaine, y que las andanzas del lord no iban a la zaga de las de Edwina. Pero hasta ahora ella siempre había sido el foco de su disfuncional matrimonio. Un capítulo especial en la vida de lady Mountbatten fue su estrecha relación con el futuro fundador de la India independiente, Jawaharlal Nehru, cuando él era primer ministro y ella ejercía de esposa del último gobernador británico. Un secreto a voces. “Nehru era un viudo que estaba solo en la cúspide del poder, y mi madre se convirtió en su confidente”, confirmaba hace doce años en otro libro la hija menor de los Mountbatten, Pamela (Hicks es su apellido de casada). Siempre ha quedado en el aire si se trató de un amor platónico por ambas partes o si hubo algo más.

Edwina murió en 1960, dejando tras de sí una reputación de mujer disoluta para los cerrados parámetros de la época. Las variadas aficiones sexuales de Louis fueron en cambio enterradas bajo un código de silencio. Y solo han salido a la luz cuatro décadas después de que estallara una bomba colocada por los terroristas en el barco en el que navegaba por aguas cercanas al Ulster. Tenía 79 años y una reputación impoluta.

26. washing his hands

After the war, Mountbatten became Viceroy to India. That country only recently won its independence from the British empire, and Mountbatten’s job was to make the transition from colonial property to independent nation as seamless as possible.

This was no easy task. India was on the verge of civil war, divided between followers of Jawaharlal Nehru (who was also, awkwardly, Mountbatten’s wife’s boyfriend), who wanted a united, Hindu-led India, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who wanted a separate Muslim state. Rather than risk England’s involvement, Mountbatten insisted on granting India independence a.s.a.p.

40. his secret shame

The Baroness was not the only one to level allegations at Mountbatten. Mountbatten’s former driver revealed that he would frequently deliver Mountbatten to a gay brothel in Morocco. Another driver admitted to bringing boys as young as 12 to Mountbatten’s home. One male sex worker in England claims that the royal was one of his clients. He also said that Mountbatten preferred young men in uniform.

be careful: premium does not include xl on the website

Two days ago I got a 3 months Premium subscription, thinking my account would also be Premium on the GayRoyal-website. But that’s not true! Go to bear-magazine.com and buy an XL membership cause that also includes Premium in the app. It’s almost the same price as Premium by itself. And Premium in the app offers very little options. So beware.

Gayroyal und sein ruf – was verbirgt sich hinter dem image?

GayRoyal gehört definitiv zu den bekannteren Seiten der Szene. Sicherlich hat jeder Gay bereits von dem entsprechenden Angebot gehört. Besonders charakteristisch: die Seite galt bzw. gilt für viele als etwas „schmuddeliger“ als viele Seiten der Konkurrenz.

Häufig wird sie in direkten Bezug zu GayRomeo gesetzt und schneidet hier entsprechend ab. Hierbei sollte jedoch nicht vergessen werden, dass „schmuddelig“ nicht zwangsläufig „schlecht“ bedeutet. Die Zielgruppe ist jedoch definitiv eine andere.

Einige User schrieben (im Rahmen verschiedener Erfahrungsberichte im Internet) über Probleme mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen bear-magazine.com hier gilt jedoch wieder, dass der Zufriedenheitsfaktor zu einem hohen Maße von der individuellen Einstellung abhängig ist. Wer beispielsweise kein Problem mit einer vergleichsweise schlichten Menüführung hat und schnelle Abenteuer bevorzugt, dürfte mit GayRoyal nach wie vor auf seine Kosten kommen.

Vor allem mit Hinblick auf die Tatsache, dass sich in den letzten Wochen einige User ohnehin darüber beschwert haben, dass „ihr“ Gayromeo zum Schlechten hin verändert wurde, dürfte sich hier demnächst einiges tun.

Winging it

Son of the 3rd Marquess of Milford Haven, Lord Ivar has admitted that even his mother Janet, 81, supports him fully – saying everyone should ‚try everything once‘.

Meanwhile, Prince William recently said that it would be ‚absolutely fine‘ if any of his children came out as gay, saying he would ’support any decision they make‘.

And the Prince also made history back in 2016 when he appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

gear up for the first ever same-sex royal wedding

The British royal family is gearing up for another historic event. Later this summer, the Queen’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, will become the first member of the extended royal family to have a gay wedding. Lord Ivar will marry his partner, James Coyle, in a private chapel in Devon.

Lord Ivar’s ex-wife, Penny, with whom he has three daughters, will give him away at the ceremony.

“It was the girls’ idea,” she explained in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched.”

Penny is immensely supportive of her ex-husband’s new relationship and knew, going into her marriage with Lord Ivar, that he identified as bisexual.

“What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun,” she said. “Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock. He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret, it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out, he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

The wedding has the full blessing of the family. One of Lord Ivar’s best friends is Prince Edward. Lord Ivar is a godparent to Edward’s daughter Louise, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex are godparents to Lord Ivar’s two oldest children.

“Sophie and Edward know of our plans and are really excited for us,” Lord Ivar explained. “Sadly, they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him.

Wer nutzt gayroyal? gibt es eine bestimmte zielgruppe?

Vielleicht auch aufgrund der Tatsache, dass es sich bei GayRoyal um einen absoluten Klassiker der Gay Szene handelt, tummeln sich hier – gerade im Vergleich zu anderen Seiten – oft (jedoch nicht nur) ältere User.

Grundlegend gab es hier auch nicht wirklich viele Änderungen mit Hinblick auf den gebotenen Nutzerkomfort. Die Menüführung wirkt einfach, bietet jedoch auch dementsprechend keine größeren Überraschungen oder Effekte.

Bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com – mit fokus auf chat und transparenz

Viele Gays ärgern sich beim Chatten über einen Mangel an Transparenz. Besonders nervig: das virtuelle „Gegenüber“ hat sich gegen das Hochladen eines Profilbildes entschieden oder schickt direkt ein „Dick-Pic“. Je nach individuellem Chatgrund kommen diese Vorgehensweisen nur selten gut an.

Seiten wie bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com setzen exakt an dieser Stelle an. Hier chatten viele User mit Bild. Gleichzeitig steht häufig ein Austausch auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen im Fokus. Der Anspruch der Nutzer ist dementsprechend hoch.

Wahrscheinlich ist es dieser positive Ruf, der nun dafür sorgt, dass diese Seiten – nach der Umstellung von GayRomeo und der Gestaltung bzw. den Inhalten von GayRoyal – sich einer so großen Beliebtheit erfreuen. Gay Chats sind schon lange nicht mehr alternativlos. User haben die Möglichkeit sich – je nach Seite auch im ersten Schritt kostenlos – einen persönlichen Eindruck vom Verhalten der User zu machen. Hier zeigt sich in der Regel schnell, inwieweit die betreffende Seite dafür geschaffen sein könnte, die eigenen Flirtambitionen zu unterstützen.

Zu platte Themen oder ein Hang zum Versenden von Nacktbildern werden hier schnell aufgedeckt. Gays, die sich auf der ernsthaften Suche nach einem festen Partner befinden, dürften hier abgeschreckt werden. Auch Schwule, die gerade erst ihr Coming Out hinter sich haben, suchen gegebenenfalls einen Chatpartner, mit dem sie sowohl reden als auch flirten können. Exakt an dieser Stelle kommen Seiten wie bear-magazine.com ins Spiel.

Gayromeo, gayroyal oder andere? eigene erfahrungen als basis für die richtige entscheidung

Der Chat Alltag in der Gay Szene zeigt, dass es auf der Suche nach der „perfekten Seite“ unerlässlich ist, seine eigenen Erfahrungen zu sammeln.

Berichte bzw. Erfahrungsberichte aus dem Internet können dabei helfen, sich einen ersten Eindruck über:

zu machen. Dennoch sollte hier nie zu vorschnell geurteilt werden. Denn: wer sagt einem Nutzer, dass er nicht auch in einer als „schmuddeligem Chat“ verrufenen Variante die „Liebe seines Lebens“ finden könnte?

Daher gilt es, auszutesten und sich gleichzeitig auch immer über die passenden Alternativen zu GayRoyal und Co. zu informieren. Wer offen bleibt und seine Möglichkeiten nutzt, erkennt schnell, dass das Chatten vor einem ersten Date mindestens ebenso wichtig ist, wie die richtigen Worte zum richtigen Zeitpunkt.

The first same-sex royal wedding has taken place – a historic occasion for the monarchy.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and his partner James Coyle married over the weekend, after announcing in June that they would be tying the knot.

The pair, who have been in a public relationship since Lord Mountbatten announced he was gay in 2016, reportedly exchanged vows in Bridwell Park chapel in Devon in front of 60 family and friends, according to the .

In september of 2016, lord ivar mountbatten, the queen’s cousin, came out as gay. and now he has announced that he is due to get married.

At the time of his coming out, Lord Mountbatten told the Mail on Sunday about his long-term relationship with James Coyle, an airline cabin services director, and the happiness he had found.

“Being a Mountbatten was never the problem,” he told the paper, “It was the generation into which I was born. When I was growing up, it was known as ‘the love that dare not speak its name’, but what’s amazing now is how far we have all come in terms of acceptance.”

Speaking to the MailOnline, Lord Mountbatten said: “All my good friends have accepted James. I basically told everyone: ‘I’ve found somebody — it’s a bloke.’ They just started laughing.

“They just started laughing. Then they met James and one particular mate said: ‘If I was gay, I’d certainly go for him.’”

Lord Mountbatten also confirmed that he had received a full blessing from the Royal Family. The wedding itself is due to take place later in the Summer, in Lord Mountbatten’s private chapel on his country estate in Devon.

In the article, Lord Mountbatten confirmed that it was him who was pushing for the marriage. “‘I really wanted to do it for James. He hasn’t been married,” he said.

He continued, saying: “‘For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”

Before he came out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Penny Thompson, although the couple divorced in 2011. However, showing that there is no bad blood between the couple, Penny will be the person walking Lord Mountbatten down the aisle.

“It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she said. She also mentioned how her and James had began getting on within “ten seconds” of meeting each other.

She further added: “What I don’t think Ivar realises is how much he has changed as a man since he came out. James is hugely responsible for that because he’s so much fun.

“‘Ivar is so much more relaxed these days. He’s so much kinder. He’s become a great cook. I now call him Fanny Cradock.

“He probably wasn’t even aware that by keeping his sexuality a secret it was really quite tormenting him. Now it’s out he’s a completely different person. Everybody says they’ve never seen him happier.”

Even though the MailOnline is associated with The Daily Mail, which is known to be quite homophobic, the majority of the comments on the article were incredibly supportive.

“Love is Love. Wishing them all the best especially the wife who certainly has a halo above her head in my estimation,” said one. Another said: “Heartening to read about such wonderful relationships and the understanding all round.”

And back in April it was found that nearly three quarters of British people didn’t object to a same-sex royal wedding, and that two-thirds were supportive of the idea.

First gay

When media have they finished discussing the wedding of Prince Harry with American actress Megan Markle, the royal family is again at the center of attention. And again because of the wedding! This time 55-year-old cousin of Queen Elizabeth II Lord Ivar Mountbatten married his beloved, 56-year-old man, James Coyle. It is noteworthy that this is the first gay wedding in the royal family.

Lord ivar is a divorcee

Lord Ivar Mountbatten was previously married to a woman named Penny, with whom he had three daughters. He reportedly told Penny before their engagement that he was bisexual, as reported by E! News.

Among the guests at the wedding, the ex-wife of the Lord was seen along with their three daughters. Despite the fact that they divorced back in 2011, the former spouses remained on good terms. According to the Queen’s brother himself, all 17 years while he lived with his wife, he doubted his sexual orientation, and only a few years ago dared to openly say that he was gay.

In fact, Penny walked Lord Mountbatten down the aisle on his wedding day. “It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched,” she was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.

British royalty changed their name from Saxa-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to distance themselves from their germanic heritage. Minor Royals such as Mountbatten followed suit with their own surnames. Interesting article and great aim for the site. I wouldn’t want factual errors to undermine this.

Oh! What Evil webs we weave! When we practice to deceive

Oh what a Tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive

There is a full documentary on Youtube about the various sins of the Royal Family. It is so scurrilous that I doubt a lot of it is true, although this bit seems to be. The Edwina-Nehru affair is widely known (there was a movie about it–I think it is called The Last Viceroy), and the bisexual rumors don’t disturb me, but the child porn charges are truly shocking. I must say I am also chagrined that Churchill said that about the Indian people. I think they are lovely people, and I think it was right to relinquish The Raj, but I regret the bloodshed that followed. Still, today India seems to be thriving, despite continued outrages against women. I’ve got a lot of opinions, don’t I?

Especially given Churchill’s atrocious appearance and manners. Ugh! SI tu n’es pas joli, soit poli!!

I see you have opted for ‚rumoured‘ when you have absolutely not proof of any of this, in fact where is the proof? Mountbatten was not well liked by some members of the royal family the Duke and Duchess of Windsor for one.

Mountbatten was extremely close to the Duke of Windsor until 1937 (as you can see from the photo above) I don’t think the Duke ever forgave him for not attending his weeding to Wallace

Well the Duke ear himself a bloody traitor to his nation and Jan an affair with Louis during the empire tours. As for that Yankee harlot and usurper, a pro Nazi bitch. I would never learn to those could say.

No member of the Royal family was present at the Duke’s wedding in France and quite rightly so. That Yankee harlot has never allowed to received by any noble or Royal house in Europe.

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Prince Charles from an early age knew Dickie had it in for him .

I think you will find dear Dickie took prince Charles under his wing for his own reasons .

Yes Uncle Dick enouraged Charles with young boys at a hotel on the Buckingham Palace Road

Was Louis Mountbatten the 1st or 2nd cousin of Edward v111 and his brother George v1?

He was second cousin of both Edward VIII and George VI

Lord Mountbatten has been linked to a Major pedophile scandal regarding an Irish school boys

His cousin Edward has being known to be bisexual. There are rumors of his nephew prince Phillips to be also bisexual and pedophile. Charles we know has had homosexual experiences. His closeness to Saville and a pedophile bishop and to his uncle Lord Mountbatten and the unpublished spider notes makes people wonder if Charles is also bisexual and a pedophile or what?

And all the nice strong French lads when he was in France " painting " Yeah painting BOLLOCKS!!

It spells Bad Taste to me, which is the opposite of Gay.

It’s really easy to create stories about the dead since they aren’t here to defend themselves.

Contrary to your insinuation, these "stories" were not created after Lord Mountbatten’s death. All of it was well known during his lifetime. Read a few books to educated yourself about the particulars. I did (your blogger).

All of it was well substantiated or just well publicized by the media ?

Don’t be so lazy, spouting conspiracy theories. Read some books, get the facts before challenging anyone’s comments. Sheesh! — your blogger.

Is there anymore articles that refrenref mountbatton and pedophilia

I really admire this man but cannot imagine him involved in an international paedophile gang using children, that is revolting!!

That’s a bit hard for me to accept too . It’s like accepting Sally Hemmings had Thomas Jefferson’s bastard . Might be true but seems so out of character . Lovers of liberty lost a dear friend that day in 1979 .

You do know that DNA confirmed Jefferson’s mixed descendants? The white and black descendants even met up on tv.

I just watched a documentary on YouTube about this disgusting, creepy pig called "Secrets of the Royals-Lord Mountbatten:Hero or Villian"….I wonder why no mention of the pedophile ring he was rumored to be involved in?? I also wondered if he somehow cleverly murdered his wife, Edwina. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Queen Elizabeth Bowles-Lyon plotted his bear-magazine.com how they hated each other and the fact that Hitler himself is quoted as calling her, the most dangerous woman alive. I put nothing past this disgusting inbred, narcissistic, sociopathic, narcopathic family, as well as other monarchs, emporers, etc. Can’t believe people admire such filthy, morally corrupt slime yet condemn poor people, minorities, homosexuals, those with disabilities etc!

Wer diesen mix zu schätzen weiß, dürfte sich auf gayroyal wohlfühlen. doch was ist eigentlich mit dem rest?

Was ist mit Gays, die sich nicht mit den neuen Seiten und Funktionen von GayRomeo anfreunden können und sich nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen Anbieter befinden?

Wie bereits erwähnt, sind die Möglichkeiten sehr vielseitig. Nun gilt es „nur“ noch, keine Einbußen mit Hinblick auf die Qualität der Seiten hinzunehmen. Wem GayRoyal zu fetisch bzw. zu speziell ist, kann sich unter anderem auf bear-magazine.com und auf bear-magazine.com umsehen. Beide Seiten bieten einen bunten Mix aus Chat, Flirt und weiteren Extras und sind in der Regel bei Gays aus nahezu allen Altersgruppen beliebt.

Prince Charles’ mentor Lord Mountbatten was a ‘homosexual with a perversion for young boys’, according to unearthed FBI files.

The celebrated war hero, who was the last Viceroy of India, and his wife Edwina Mountbatten were described as ‘persons of extremely low morals’ in intelligence files, which claim both frequently had extramarital affairs.

The 75-year-old FBI documents came out after being obtained through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request made by British historian Andrew Lownie for his new biography The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves.

The files were started in February 1944, following Mountbatten’s appointment as supreme allied commander of southeast Asia.

In one interview on another matter with author and socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, she claimed Mountbatten had a penchant for young men that made him an ‘unfit man to direct any sort of military operations’, The Sunday Times reports.

The file reads: ‘She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals.

‘She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

‘In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.’

It was signed EE Conroy, head of the New York field office, who wrote that she ‘appears to have no special motive in making the above statements’.

In the new book, Anthony Daly, a rent boy to the rich and famous during the 1970s, also claims: ‘Tom [Driberg] said Mountbatten had something of a fetish for uniforms — handsome young men in military uniforms (with high boots) and beautiful boys in school uniform.’

Rumours of Mountbatten’s homosexuality have circulated for decades, with his group of gay friends allegedly referring to him by the nickname ‘Mountbottom’.

In addition, gossip about his and his wife’s extra lovers have swirled, spurred by his comment: ‘Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.’

It’s not known why FBI agents began putting together the dossier, which spans over more than three decades.

Agents opened further files on Mountbatten – described by Prince Charles as the ‘grandfather I never had’ – after World War II after he became Nato commander of allied forces in the Mediterranean, then admiral of the fleet, and later chief of the defence staff.

Their interest in the British Navy officer and statesman, who was assassinated in an IRA bomb attack in 1979, reached an all-time high around the Suez crisis, with the Bureau opening files in November 1955 and November 1956.

The Mountbattens: their Lives and Loves will be published on August 22.

Prince Philip’s cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten will be fighting the elements after joining the cast of this year’s Treasure Island with Bear Grylls.

The 56-year-old, who is a member of the extended Royal Family, has previously made history as being the first in the bloodline to be in an open same-sex relationship.

He’s now joining the series in hopes to show a new side of the upper middle class family he lives in, and to chance perceptions of the aristocracy.

He told The Sun: ‘They automatically assume that a lord is going to be about 80 years old, wear tweed suits and act like they’ve stepped out of Downton Abbey.

‘Don’t get me wrong, my upbringing was almost like a real life Downton Abbey, but I don’t think I am like that, I’m an openly gay lord.

Lord Mountbatten married James Coyle last year, and given away by his ex-wife Lady Penny Mountbatten, with whom he has three daughters.

Mountbatten will be fighting for a £100,000 prize fund on a remote island in the Pacific Ocean, in scenes set to air later this year.

However, the show almost started with a disaster after Bear Grylls himself was stung by a bee, which he is deathly allergic to, on route to the actual island.

On Instagram, Mountbatten commented on the joyous occasion with the following message:

“Well we did it finally! It was an amazing day despite the miserable British weather. Fabulous service conducted by Trish Harrogate, chief Registrar for Devon, who set the perfect but lighthearted tone for what is a serious occasion. The accompanying gospel choir were amazing. Thank you so much to Bristol’s Teachers Rock Choir for your superb singing. Most importantly a massive thanks to my 3 gorgeous girls for being so understanding and supportive, without their support this could never have happened! And finally the biggest thank you to James for being just perfect”

Last viceroy mountbatten was bisexual, liked young boys: fbi files

The claims are contained in a book on the love lives of Louis, Edwina Mountbatten

An oft-repeated allegation by critics of India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, is that he allowed himself to be manipulated by Edwina Mountbatten, the wife of Louis Mountbatten, the last viceroy of British India.

Some critics of Nehru, such as BJP MP Subramanian Swamy, have persistently raised allegations of Nehru’s relationship with Edwina. In 2018, Swamy had tweeted “Jammu Kashmir State after merger was arbitrarily and without cabinet approval referred to UN by Nehru at Edwina’s urging”.

Now, a new book on the lives of the Mountbattens claims to have accessed files of the US FBI that reported Louis Mountbatten was himself bisexual and had a “fetish” for “beautiful boys in school uniform”.

Written by Andrew Lownie, reported. Louis Mountbatten was a hero of the Second World War, known for his exploits against the Japanese in Burma, long before his appointment as viceroy to India in February 1947. After independence, Louis Mountbatten briefly served as first governor-general of India.

Ironically, the book’s release will come in the run-up to the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Louis Mountbatten. Louis Mountbatten was killed when a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army extremist group exploded on his fishing boat off the Irish coast.

Reporting on the contents of Lownie’s book, various British media outlets on Sunday highlighted that one of the sources of the claims of Louis Mountbatten being bisexual was declassified FBI files. According to the , Lownie’s book accessed FBI files dating as far back as 1944. The 1944 FBI entry quotes that Louis and his wife were considered persons of “extremely low morals” in royal circles. Mountbatten was an uncle of Prince Philip and a distant cousin of the current British monarch, Queen Elizabeth.

The 1944 FBI file entry reports “Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys” and was considered unfit to lead military operations because of this. Homosexual acts were illegal in the UK till 1967.

Lownie’s book quotes Ron Perks, Louis Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, as saying Louis Mountbatten used to frequent a “gay brothel used by senior naval officers” in Rabat, Morocco.

Lord mountbatten was gay!

Lord Mountbatten was a homosexual with a perversion for young boys.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

[quote]Since the assassination of Mountbatten in an IRA bomb attack 40 years ago, rumours have swirled about his sexuality, fuelled by his comment: “ a and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

[quote]The FBI files cover more than three decades. The first is dated February 1944, soon after Mountbatten became supreme allied commander of southeast Asia. Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford, Baroness Decies, when interviewed about another matter, had mentioned being an intimate of Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary and their ladies-in-waiting.

[quote]“She states that in these circles Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys. In Lady Decies’ opinion he is an unfit man to direct any sort of military operations because of this condition. She stated further that his wife Lady Mountbatten was considered equally erratic.”

[quote]In April 1957 the FBI produced a memo on allegations of an affair between Paul Robeson, the singer, and a, who had several liaisons with black men. She had an on-off relationship with Leslie “Hutch” Hutchinson and is said to have given the West Indian singer and pianist a gold bracelet bearing her name and a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier.

His wife also supposedly had an affair with Nehru as well. Sorry, the whole article is behind a paywall.

And the walls come tumbling down. Now we have Archie Mountbatten Windsor. What a shame.

It WAS known. The gay history blog Gay Influence has a post about Lord Mountbatten from 2011:

Lord Louis was known as “Dickie” to family and close friends, which was unusual, considering that Richard was not among his given names. Oh, I nearly forgot. "Dickie" was widely known in the military as "Mountbottom." I’m not making this up.

If anyone here has a jeweled penis sheath, please post a picture!

Noel Coward was in love with him, and wrote In Which We Serve as a tribute to him.

Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either.

He was called Dickie because his name was Nicholas, but the Russian royals already had a claim on the “Nicky” nickname, so he went with Dickie instead.

He apparently had an affair with Edward VIII when they toured the world in 1920.

Now I’m much more interested in this woman he "used to flirt with", the Duchess of Argyll. She was a little ahead of her time. I’ll remember the first time I ever read the word "bepearled", and that it was followed by "Duchess fellating".

[quote]The evidence discovered resulted in the 1963 divorce case, in which the Duke of Argyll accused his wife of infidelity and included a set of Polaroid photographs of the Duchess nude, save for her signature three-strand pearl necklace, in the company of another man. There were also photographs of the bepearled Duchess fellating a naked man whose face was not shown.

R18, Her story was turned into the chamber opera ‚Powder her Face‘.

"Killed by an IRA bomb. Guess they don’t care for pedophiles either."

The IRA doesn’t go in for booze and dope! And pedophiles!

I can understand someone being gay and royal. They may have to enter into a heterosexual marriage to preserve their status and prevent being ostracized. However, being a pedo and using your money and status to hide your peversions is disgusting! And the royals seem to have a lot of pedo’s around them!

I tried googling "jeweled penis sheath" and nothing came up. Nothing on the Cartier website either.

R5 Is the "’PERV‘ DOSSIER" a regular feature of the Sun and in every issue pointing out a different perv?

Wouldn’t Duke of Windsor and Mountbatten be cousins?

In the Seventies, the rumour I always heard was of course Mountbottom was a huge homo, and he was helping Charles get over his homosexuality for the sake of the crown. (This was when there was a big rumour Charles was gay).

I’m the person who posted a link from The Times and a few quotes from the article. I believe The Times is considered a reputable news souce.

[quote]But recently uncovered FBI files and new interviews paint the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma as a sexually voracious man whose bisexuality became a theme of US intelligence files. The documents came to light during research for a biography of Lord Mountbatten and his wife a by Andrew Lownie, a fellow of the Royal Historical Society and president of the Biographers’ Club.

Of course, I wasn’t expecting to go to the Cartier website and find a selection of penis sheaths from which to choose. I would imagine if it existed, it was bespoke. The only penis sheaths of which I’m aware are the ones work in places like Papua.

He had many affairs with women too. His daughter said that her parents "always went mad for attractive people".

I guess that’s a nice way of saying your dad went mad for 15-year-old boys

It’s doubtful he had sex with the Duke of Windsor. If he had, George V would most likely have heard about it and would have made sure the two no longer were allowed to associate with each other.

Mountbatten’s sister-in-law was a Lesbian and was for a time the lover of Anderson Cooper’s grandmother, Gloria Vanderbilt (senior).

R42, how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters? After she and her whole family were assassinated he supposedly kept her picture at his bedside for the rest of his life.

"Gay? Then why did he want to marry Grand Duchess Maria, the most beautiful of the doomed Romanov sisters?"

Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?

"Gee, ya think money and status might have something to do with it?"

He had plenty of that himself. He didn’t need her for that.

[quote] how do you know that George V would’ve found out about it? You’re just making that up in your head. Young fellas mess around with each other all the time and manage to keep it hidden.

Except for his daughter, Mary, George V had his children spied on at all times. He kept dossiers on them which were later destroyed by George VI.

R46 The Battenbergs/Mountbattens were not rich. Dickie’s father had a small income from some property he owned in Darmstadt and his Navy pay was not great. Dickie’s mother received money from an investment fund set up for her by Queen Victoria. It provided for a high standard of living, but not a royal standard of living. Dickie’s two aunt’s in Russia supplemented the family’s income, but after the Revolution that source stopped. By the end of WWI, the family was living off of Dickie’s mother’s allowance. Dickie’s brother George had married the morganatic daughter of a Russian Grand Duke. Her wealth was also curtailed by the Russian Revolution, but she helped the Mountbattens out when she could.

The Mountbattens didn’t really hit the jackpot until Dickie married a.

I don’t think Dicke was after Maria Romanov’s purse. She was a little plump but gorgeous. And hot to trot, it’s been said.

His daughter Pamela sold her tiara not long ago- needed the money.

Is there an FBI dossier on my old friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor?

And THIS one on the left, in this photo looks like he has potential

The essential thing about Mountbatten was his glamour and sex appeal. He was sexy into his sixties.

(Though his reputation was ill-served by this recent soapy movie where he was impersonated by some bloated Robert-Morley look-alike)

A jewelled penis sheath seems like the most necessary thing in the world.

It was queens who kept the Empire afloat all those years

R60 That mindless assertion sounds as ill-thought as David Lean’s 1985 remark that ‚It’s a well-known saying that the women who lost us the empire. It’s true‘.

What on Earth could anyone mean by "… the women lost us the Empire"?

Perhaps David Lean was doing publicity for Passage To India which is about Adela Quested going on a quest to find out about India and makes a complete hash of everything and making a charge of rape against Mr Aziz.

Perhaps David Lean was voicing the opinions of a true patriot who has witnessed his beloved empire devolving from its zenith in the 1880s to its nadir in the 1950s.

I daresay David Lean met Mountbatten and flibbertigibbet a as he spent 5 years trying to make a film about Gandhi and the bloody 1948 Partition of India.

David Lean was a master at his craft but he married 5 times; he complained frequently about his ice queen of a second wife, and Alec Guinness‘ memoirs suggest David Lean was a sex-fiend.

I suspect this mid-1980s quote was when he was VERY bitter about his projects getting cancelled, Robert Bolt becoming mortally ill and he (perhaps) lapsing into dementia.

The hottest royal currently is Princess Margaret’s grandson, Arthur Chatto.

R64 Arthur Chatto is not royal. His mother, Lady Sarah Chatto isn’t even royal. Princess Margaret stated years ago, "My children are NOT royal."

Dear OP, endless, factless speculation over dead people is all too silly, in my opinion.

queen elizabeth’s cousin lord ivar mountbatten comes clean about being gay!

Coming clean about one’s sexual orientation – especially in the case of a homosexual – is one hell of a ballsy business. Such daring, in the world of puritans and other religious conservatives, will make the confessor fall victim to eternal disdain and ostracism.

Now it is a member of the English Royal kin who has come out in public about being gay.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, has become the first person from the Royal Family to come clean about sexual orientation.

Lord Mountbatten is a father to three children with ex-wife Penelope (Penny) Thompson.

In an official statement, he said that he has struggled with his sexuality all along.

According to reports, Lord Mountbatten is now seeing James Coyle, an airline cabin services director and they both met while skiing in Switzerland.

In an interview to the Mail, Lord Mountbatten said:

“Penny was aware before we got married, I told her I was bisexual, that my attraction went both ways. She understood and I will always be grateful to her.”

”Coming out” is such a funny phrase but it’s what I suppose I did in a rather roundabout way, emerging to a place I’m happy to be. I have struggled with my sexuality and in some ways I still do; it has been a real journey to reach this point.’ he added.

He’s quite happy the way he and others have come to the terms of acceptance.

Prince charles’ confidante lord mountbatten accused of being homosexual, documents claim

Prince Charles’ confidante and mentor, Lord Louis Mountbatten, was previously accused of being homosexual.

During an interview several decades ago, socialite Elizabeth de la Poer Beresford claimed that Mountbatten had a penchant for young men. According to Baroness Decies, this made Mountbatten unfit to direct any sort of military operations.

“She states that in those circles, Lord Louis Mountbatten and his wife are considered persons of extremely low morals. She stated that Lord Louis Mountbatten was known to be a homosexual with a perversion for young boys,” the files read.

The document was signed by EE Conroy, the head of the New York field office. But Conroy also claimed that the baroness seemed as though she had a motive in making the controversial statements.

But Beresford wasn’t the only person who accused Mountbatten of being gay. In fact, he reportedly had a group of gay friends who gave him the hilarious nickname “Mountbottom.”

And Mountbatten’s previous comment about himself and his wife sleeping on other people’s beds just worsened the speculations about his sexuality.

Meanwhile, Mountbatten also made headlines this week after his special connection with Prince Charles was revisited. When he was still alive, Mountbatten reminded the future King of the importance of choosing his future bride wisely.

“You have got to choose somebody very carefully, I think, who could fulfill this particular role…it has got be somebody very special,” Mountbatten told Prince Charles.

He also endorsed the relationship between the Prince of Wales and Amanda Knatchbull. But following his death, Prince Charles and Knatchbull’s relationship ended after the former proposed to the latter and she said no.

Shortly after, Prince Charles realized that he wanted to propose to Princess Diana after she showed compassion while he was still mourning the death of his great-uncle. Unfortunately, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage was also short-lived.

The couple tied the knot in 1981, but they separated in 1992. In 1996, their divorce was finalized.

June 25, 1900: birth of lord louis mountbatten, 1st earl mountbatten of burma. part ii.

Posted by liamfoley63 in Kingdom of EuropeRoyal MistressRoyal SuccessionRoyal Titles

1st Earl Mountbatten of BurmaAssassinationFirst Sea LordIrish Republican ArmyLady BarbourneLord Louis MountbattenPrince Louis of BattenbergSuez Crisis of 1956Viceroy of IndiaYola Letellier

Earl Mountbatten admitted “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.” He maintained an affair for several years with Yola Letellier, the wife of Henri Letellier, publisher of Le Journal and mayor of Deauville (1925–28). Yola Letellier’s life story was the inspiration for Colette’s novel Gigi.

After Edwina’s death in 1960, Mountbatten was involved in relationships with young women, according to his daughter Patricia, his secretary John Barratt, his valet Bill Evans and William Stadiem, an employee of Madame Claude.

Ron Perks, Mountbatten’s driver in Malta in 1948, alleged that he used to visit the Red House, a gay brothel in Rabat. Andrew Lownie, a Royal Historical Society fellow, wrote that the FBI maintained files regarding Mountbatten’s alleged homosexuality. He also interviewed several young men who claimed to have been in a relationship with him. Barratt has denied Mountbatten was a homosexual, claiming it would be impossible for such a fact to be hidden from him.

The FBI file on Mountbatten, began after he took on the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Southeast Asia in 1944, contains a claim by American author Elizabeth Wharton Drexel that Mountbatten had “a perversion for young boys”. Norman Nield, Mountbatten’s driver from 1942–43, told the tabloid New Zealand Truth that he transported young boys aged 8 to 12 and was paid to keep quiet. Robin Bryans had also claimed to the Irish magazine Now that he and Anthony Blunt, along with others, were part of a ring that engaged in homosexual orgies and procured boys in their first year at public schools such as the Portora Royal School in Enniskillen.

Several former residents of the Kincora Boys’ Home in Belfast have asserted that they were trafficked to Mountbatten at his residence in Mullaghmore, County Sligo. These claims were dismissed at the time. A recent book detailing the Irish magazine Village’s investigation asserts that Mountbatten was the most high-profile member of an extensive British-Irish child rape network.

From 1954 to 1959, Mountbatten was First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier. Thereafter he served as chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest-serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period Mountbatten also served as chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

In the Suez Crisis of 1956, Mountbatten strongly advised his old friend Prime Minister Anthony Eden against the Conservative government’s plans to seize the Suez canal in conjunction with France and Israel. He argued that such a move would destabilize the Middle East, undermine the authority of the United Nations, divide the Commonwealth and diminish Britain’s global standing. His advice was not taken. Eden insisted that Mountbatten not resign. Instead he worked hard to prepare the Royal Navy for war with characteristic professionalism and thoroughness.

On August 27, 1979, Mountbatten went lobster-potting and tuna fishing in his 30-foot (9.1 m) wooden boat, Shadow V, which had been moored in the harbour at Mullaghmore. IRA member Thomas McMahon had slipped onto the unguarded boat that night and attached a radio-controlled bomb weighing 50 pounds (23 kg). When Mountbatten and his party had brought the boat just a few hundred yards from the shore, the bomb was detonated. The boat was destroyed by the force of the blast, and Mountbatten’s legs were almost blown off. Mountbatten, then aged 79, was pulled alive from the water by nearby fishermen, but died from his injuries before being brought to shore.

Also aboard the boat were his elder daughter Patricia, Lady Brabourne; her husband Lord Brabourne; their twin sons Nicholas and Timothy Knatchbull; Lord Brabourne’s mother Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne; and Paul Maxwell, a young crew member from Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. Nicholas (aged 14) and Paul (aged 15) were killed by the blast and the others were seriously injured. Doreen, Dowager Lady Brabourne (aged 83), died from her injuries the following day.

The attack triggered outrage and condemnation around the world. The Queen received messages of condolence from leaders including American President Jimmy Carter and Pope John Paul II. Carter expressed his “profound sadness” at the death.

Lord and Lady Mountbatten had two daughters: Patricia Knatchbull, 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma (14 February 1924 – 13 June 2017), sometime lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II, and Lady Pamela Hicks (born 19 April 1929), who accompanied them to India in 1947–1948 and was also sometime lady-in-waiting to the Queen.

Royal family’s first same-sex wedding announced for queen’s cousin

The royal family held a historic wedding this spring with the nuptials of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle, but there’s about to be one more "first" before wedding season is over.

Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, announced that he will marry his partner James Coyle this summer in the royal family’s first same-sex marriage, reported the Daily Mail. Lord Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he announced he was gay, becoming the first member of the royal family to do so. Shortly after, he revealed his relationship with now-fiance Coyle.

The ceremony will be held in a private chapel on Lord Mountbatten’s estate in Devon, England. While the wedding ceremony is limited to close family and friends, the couple invited 120 guests to the reception, but the queen and her immediate family won’t be in attendance. "Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him," Lord Mountbatten told The Daily Mail.

Prior to coming out, Lord Mountbatten was married to Lady Penny Mountbatten and shared three children with her. The couple divorced eight years ago, but there are definitely no hard feelings — Lady Mountbatten is going to walk her former husband down the aisle. "It was the girls‘ idea," said Lady Mountbatten, "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

As to why the Lord chose to make history with his wedding, he told the Daily Mail that it’s all about his groom.

"For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children," said the royal. "James hasn’t had the stable life I have. I want to be able to give you that."

Danielle Garrand is a social media producer and trending reporter for CBS News.

british royal family to celebrate its 1st same-sex wedding

Just months after Prince Harry married American actress Meghan Markle, the extended British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle, later this summer.

"We’ll be pronounced partners in marriage, but the ceremony itself will be very small," Mountbatten, 55, revealed in a family interview with the Daily Mail.

He met Coyle in the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.

He divorced his ex-wife Penny, with whom he has three daughters, in 2011. She will be give her former husband away at the event.

"It was the girls‘ idea," Penny said, referring to her daughters. "It makes me feel quite emotional. I’m really very touched."

The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.

The former geologist and chicken farmer has been running the historic house and its grounds as an upscale wedding venue but it is currently for sale at $6.5 million.

It is not clear whether any senior royals will attend the ceremony.

Mountbatten is the queen’s third cousin once removed, and the great-great-great grandson of Queen Victoria. However, his family name gives him a higher profile in British aristocratic circles; he is the great-nephew of Earl Mountbatten of Burma, the World War II naval commander who led Allied military forces in southeast Asia.

In a reflection of social change, royal attitudes to homosexuality have progressed since 1960 when Jeremy Fry, Lord Snowdon’s choice of best man for his wedding to Princess Margaret, was vetoed after it was discovered he had a conviction for a "minor homosexual offense."

Harry and Meghan, who wed on May 19, have made clear their support of gay rights, reportedly telling gay delegates from across Britain’s former empire, the Commonwealth that they would put LGBT issues at the front of their work.

Prince William last year received the annual British LGBT Awards‘ Celebrity Straight Ally award. In his acceptance video, he called out homophobic bullying.

"In recent years I’ve been compassionate about what we can do to protect people from bullying, particularly online," he said. "Through this work, I’ve encountered a number of tragic stories about LGBT young people who have, sadly, felt unable to cope with the abuse and discrimination they face in their lives."

William also made history in May 2016 as the first British royal to be featured on the cover a gay magazine.

Grundsätzlich: worauf sollte bei der suche nach einer „perfekten datingseite“ geachtet werden?

Auch wenn es sich auf den ersten Blick ein wenig unromantisch anhören mag: wer sich auf der Suche nach Liebe, Sex oder einem Abenteuer im Internet befindet, sollte immer auf die Seriosität der entsprechenden Seiten achten.

Ist diese gewährleistet, gilt es, sich mit weiteren Details, wie zum Beispiel:

Auseinanderzusetzen. Schnell wird hier klar, dass es schwerfällt, hier von einer „besten Seite“ zu sprechen. Vielmehr ist es wichtig, dass Seiten wie GayRoyal, bear-magazine.com und bear-magazine.com zum eigenen Geschmack und den persönlichen Erwartungen passen.

Oft hilft es auch, die Angebote einfach auszuprobieren und sich dann zu entscheiden.
