Marriage of Petra Ecclestone and James Stunt

Yesterday, the media was "stirred" by the news that this weekend the daughter of Bernie Ecclestone, the former head of Formula 1, and Slavica Radic, will stand at the altar. 

The Daily Mail reported that Petra and her longtime fiance Sam Palmer will get married in London, but that the exact location is still unknown. 'That's wonderful news. I hope she will be happier than she was in her last marriage. I'll come to the wedding, of course, but I won't make a speech because I'm just commenting, and my comment on Petra's future marriage is that I think she chose a really good guy,' Bernie told the world media.

'I don't know Sam very well because they live in the US and I don't see them often, but we met a few times and I liked him. I hope I will have the opportunity to get to know him better. I don't know any details of the wedding. I just know it will take place this weekend. I'm waiting for Petra to call me and give me all the information,' he added. 

Petra and Sam got engaged in 2018, and two years later they had a daughter, Minnie. It seems that the younger Ecclestone sister has finally found her happiness after going through hell with her ex-husband. Namely, from 2011 to 2017, she was married to the controversial rich man James Stunt, and together they have three children. Although they seemed idyllic to many, it later became public that he was physically violent towards the rich heiress, and as she herself revealed, he mentally abused and cheated on her. It is known that he loved to drink, do drugs and party, and at one time he was forced to declare bankruptcy due to his wild lifestyle and bad business decisions. 'When I was going through the divorce process, I couldn't eat and I was the thinnest I've ever been. I lost 8 kilograms because I was under a lot of stress ,' Petra once said.

Until she met Sam Palmer, Petra thought she would be alone forever. 'I bumped into him by chance when he came to LA to visit Jay (her sister Tamara's husband). Honestly, I thought I would end up celibate or gay. But you always meet someone when you least expect it or want it,' Petra once said.
