Duchess gives her blessing to Missy’s new man

WHen Lady Melissa Percy married Thomas van straubenzee, the ceremony was attended by Princes William and Harry.

Could wedding bells soon be heard again at her family seat, Alnwick Castle, which doubled as Hogwarts in Harry Potter films?

‘Missy’, as the 31year- old is known to chums, divorced Tom in 2016. And her new romance with American hedge fund boss remy Trafelet, 48, is going so well that he has already met her parents, the Duke and Duchess of northumberland. ‘We really love remy,’ her mother, Jane, tells me at the launch of Tim Bouverie’s book, Appeasing Hitler, at China exchange in soho.

‘We’re just happy for them because they both had marriages that didn’t work and they now have a second chance at being happy. i would be happy for them to get married when the time’s right.’
