The "alluring beauty" would be currently excluded from the Royal Royal Circle in Norfolk by order of Kate

Described most often as a "seductive socialite," Rose Hanbury willow, Marquise de Cholmondeley, has always attracted attention. As a renowned beauty company and an impeccably aristocratic pedigree, she had plenty of contenders, including a young Prince William, they said.

The fact that the charismatic David Rocksavage, 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley – a wealthy old Etonian 23 years older than him – may have done honor to this honor, especially when they married just two days after not only announcing their Engagement, that Rose was pregnant with twins.

But there is no doubt that the family, which now includes nine-year-old twins, Alexander and Oliver, and three-year-old Iris, is now the toast of their North Norfolk enclave.

They are part of a group of so-called 'Turnip Toffs', a festive group with larger homes than the Royals. Other members include close friends of William, William and Rosie Van Cutsem, Tom and Polly Coke, Count and Countess of Leicester, neighbors of Holkham Hall, and James and Laura Meade, godmother of Prince Louis.

Rose has "always loved challenging conventions," according to friends. The big brunette with doe eyes and crowbows, now 35 years old, signed up for the Storm model agency, the company that also housed Kate Moss, when she arrived on the London scene with her older sister Marina.

The sisters drew the public's attention in 2005 after posting a neat photo showing them in matching skinny pink bikinis, alongside Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Their younger brother David is a financier in Hong Kong.

The trio was raised at Wembury House, a Georgian mansion in Devon, by unconventional parents. Their father, Tim, is an old Etonian website designer and is part of the Truman, Hanbury, Buxton & Co. brewing dynasty. Their mother is designer Emma, ​​who owns and runs the Marosa fashion label. The couple was more like friends than relatives, said a family friend.

"It's not unusual to see Timmy and Emma at [nightclub] Boujis with the girls.

"Likewise, Marina and Rose are just as happy in the company of their parents' friends as they are in their own age group."

The family would usually spend holidays together in Ibiza and "really knew how to organize a party".

Wembury, whose family inherited in 1980, is an eclectic mix of vibrant colors, historic oil paintings and chintz. It has a swimming pool, extensive gardens with views of Dartmoor and an elegant dining room draped with fairy lights.

A neighbor from Devon told a newspaper, "An invitation to Wembury is highly coveted here. One minute, you'll talk to one of Emma's bohemian friends, a minute later, you'll talk to an unreal peer. Add to that a rock star or an actor and some young friends with long legs of the girl and you get the picture. & # 39;

The sisters are certainly of purebred race. Emma's mother, Lady Elizabeth Longman, was a young girlfriend of Queen Elizabeth and a bridesmaid when she married Prince Philip. The family hosts an annual cricket match where the guest list often includes Zac Goldsmith, Hugh Grant and Imran Khan.

But although Rose may have become a career man, she went into politics as an badistant to Michael Gove, then secretary of Shadow Schools, when he attended a host of prestigious festivals in London. Marina and she regularly appear on Tatler's list of the 100 most invited guests.

Not surprisingly, there was a crowd of aristocratic admirers. Rose was related to Lord Freddie Windsor, Lord John Somerset and Lord Lambton's grandson Fred, with whom she was engaged.

In fact, the families were so close that Fred's father, Ned, Earl of Durham, later married Marina (again, with a gap of 20 years between them).

Rose was also at one point identified as a potential Prince William's affections candidate, although at their first meeting – and if they never got close before Cambridge moved to Norfolk – is not yet clear. William was surrounded by a cohort of pretty women, including Jecca Craig, Isabella Calthorpe and Olivia Hunt, before his relationship with Kate and the couple's brief split in 2007.

William, just two years older than Rose, may have already been considered a more realistic prospect than David.

Indeed, many thought that David could never marry David. Among his party-loving friends, there was Hollywood actor Johnny Depp, rock star Mick Jagger and Peter Mandelson, and a series of high-profile acts with supermodel and actress Lisa B, the star of French cinema Isabelle Adjani and heiress Sabrina Guinness.

But after meeting Rose at a party at Villa Cetinale, the Lambton family's Italian playground, the stars finally lined up and married at Chelsea City Hall in 2009.

Rose's parents did not blink at the unconventional relationships of their daughters.

A family friend told a newspaper, "It's not about their age, but who they are – and by that I mean if the person is right for their daughters. All they want is for them to be happy.

And who would not be happy with such a match? In 1990, Lord Cholmondeley, direct descendant of British Prime Minister Sir Robert Walpole, inherited 118 million pounds sterling and two stately homes on the death of his father, the sixth Marquis, and became "the most beautiful catch in England." ". .

It owns Cholmondeley Castle in Cheshire, but the family home is located in Houghton Hall, Norfolk, a stately 106-room Palladian-style residence – built in the 1720s for Walpole itself – with a sculpture park, a five-acre enclosed garden and a 1,000-acre park. . The room is a little more spacious than the average family home, but after the birth of the twins, David insisted that the family should be based in this house.

Rose had left her job in Westminster when the severe morning sickness – which also struck the Duchess of Cambridge during her pregnancy – had a negative impact.

Babies were born several months before term by caesarean section – which was an unusual problem for the couple.

It seems that both boys were born at the same time. Which one should inherit the title of his father and the lucrative estate of several million pounds sterling? In the end, this was decided by a fluke of biology. Alexander, known as Xan, who weighed 8 ounces more than Oliver, was honored.

He is known as the Earl of Rocksavage, while his twin is simply Lord Oliver Cholmondeley.

The family, which expanded in 2016 with the birth of Lady Iris, is now in the center of the Norfolk and Rose to date Kate among his best friends. Both have young children, live in a rural idyll and occupy a similar position enjoying an immense privilege.

Rose and David are extremely well connected and regarded as fabulous and "very fun" hosts – an undeniable badet in Cambridge's inner circle. The Cholmondeley estate is just six kilometers from the home of the Duke and Duchess Anmer Hall, and the royal couple and their children would have been regular guests. Indeed, Prince George was a playmate of the Cholmondeley twins.

Their interests are also shared – Rose and Kate are clients of the charity East Anglia's Children's Hospices and Kate attended the Houghton Hall Horse Trials with her offspring.

A charity gala dinner was organized by the Cholmondeleys in July 2016. Kate and Rose were photographed in lively chat.

In fact, Rose is so much considered part of the royal scene that she sat next to Prince Harry at a state banquet at Buckingham Palace in 2017.

If Kate is trying to extract Rose, rumor has it, it could prove a rather embarrbading – and humiliating – business for all concerned.

The signaled line must indeed be serious …

She allegedly ordered William to ban Rose Hanbury, a model friend, from their Norfolk circle after a "terrible confrontation".

By Ian Gallagher for The Mail on Sunday

The Duchess of Cambridge reportedly told her husband to banish one of their friends from their social circle after a "terrible" argument.

Kate and William have long been close to their Norfolk neighbors, the Marquis and Marquise de Cholmondeley. But speculation about a serious conflict between Kate and the Marquise – the former fashion model Rose Hanbury – would have intensified in recent weeks.

Yesterday, the duchess wanted Rose to be "phased out" as one of his confidants, which had a new impetus yesterday.

According to The Sun, the alleged fracture would be "much worse" than previously suggested. And he added that William's attempts to reach a reconciliation between the two women had been postponed.

William is said to be a good friend of the Marquis, David Rocksavage, who at age 58 is 23 years older than Rose.

Yesterday, in their home in Devon, Rose's parents, Tim and Emma Hanbury, expressed surprise at the reports. When asked if her daughter had discussed it, Ms. Hanbury glanced at her husband before answering, "Nothing to say about it," said Mr. Hanbury: "You do not have any comment, there is no comment. '

The first thought that something was wrong was when Richard Eden, a reporter for the Daily Mail, reported that friends of the Duchess had claimed that the ex-model Rose was "a rival of her rural crown".

Among their group of Norfolk – fondly nicknamed the "Turnip Toffs" – it was Kate who was still presumed queen of bees. "At first glance, it's weird, but Kate seems to consider Rose a rival," a source said.

While Kate and William stay in Anmer Hall, which consists of ten rooms previously rented to a chef, Rose and her husband live in a splendid location three kilometers from Houghton Hall, one of the finest Palladian houses in the world. country, surrounded by park. The Cambridges moved to Anmer on the Sandringham Estate in 2014, when William joined the East Anglian Air Ambulance charity.

A source told the Sun, "It is well known that Kate and Rose have fought terribly.

"They were close but that's no longer the case.

'William wants to play peacemaker so that the two couples can remain friends, as they are close to each other and share many common friends.

"But Kate made it clear that she did not want to see them anymore and wanted William to eliminate them, despite their social status."

Rose and her husband have twins, Alexander and Oliver, and their daughter Iris. Boys are Prince George's playmates.

At the wedding of William and Kate eight years ago, Rose was generally considered to be the best dressed guest. In 2016, the royal couple attended a black tie gala at Houghton Hall. And the two couples would have shared the dates of the dinner.

Rose was on the books of the same modeling agency that discovered Kate Moss. The Marquise was also a brief researcher for Conservative MP Michael Gove.

She first caught the public's eye in 2005 when she and her older sister Marina, both dressed in a pink bikini, posed alongside the then Prime Minister, Tony Blair.

Her husband, the Marquis in love with the party, was described as "the most beautiful fish in England".

When he succeeded his father in title, he not only became a hereditary lord, but he inherited a legacy of nearly £ 120 million – the largest sum bequeathed in Britain .

He had relationships with several extremely glamorous women, including model and actress Lisa B, French movie star Isabelle Adjani and heiress Sabrina Guinness, but her friends thought that he would never get married.

Rose and David met for the first time at a party at Villa Cetinale, the home of Lord Lambton, a politician in disgrace. They married at Chelsea City Hall in 2009.

The Marquis is a friend of Prince Charles, and was often invited to tea at Sandringham. When he was 14, the queen chose him as a page of honor. Now, she sees him once a year while he is dragging herself in front of her in her role as Lord Great Chamberlain at the official opening of Parliament.

Last night, the Cholmondeleys were not available to comment.

A staff member answering Houghton Hall's intercom said, "They are not available today." When asked if the couple was aware of the allegations reported in The Sun, the employee stated, "We are fully aware."

Last night, a royal source said the rumors of a breakup were false and upsetting. Kensington Palace declined to comment.
