Lady Lola’s beautiful tabletop tribute to dad

STILL mourning the loss of her father, racing driver John Crichton-Stuart, the 7th Marquess of Bute, who died last month, Lady Lola Bute is doing her best to keep her family’s spirits up. On what would have been his 63rd birthday this week, the 21-year-old hosted a bittersweet celebration at their home in London, with guests including her mother, John’s widow, fashion designer Serena Bute. At one point Lady Lola got on to a table to sing along to Elton John’s Your Song. ‘So much love in one room, I didn’t think it was possible,’ she said. ‘Happy birthday dada. The king of cool.’
