Read our privacy policy Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie are to host a lavish wedding party at the prime minister's grace and favour mansion while he clings on to office, it has been reported. The wedding was the marriage for Mr Johnson, who has two children with Carrie, who previously worked in Conservative central office, where she was known as Carrie Symonds. "It beggars belief that even after all the criticism Johnson has faced regarding integrity and probity, one of the reasons he is staying is to have his wedding party at Chequers," one Tory source told the Mirror. Chequers features a heated indoor swimming pool, putting green and 1,500 acres of grounds – an idyllic location for a wedding party.
