Labour Party leader Ed Miliband married his long-term partner Justine Thornton in a low-key ceremony on Friday. Miliband and his new wife, an environmental lawyer, tied the knot in a civil ceremony at Langar Hall in Nottinghamshire in front of a small group of about 50 family and friends. “Thanks for all the good wishes. Really looking forward to the day,” he wrote on Twitter shortly beforehand. “Feel like the luckiest guy in the world to be marrying Justine.” Miliband and Thornton have two sons — Daniel, who was born in May 2009 and Samuel, who was born in November 2010. When he announced the date of the wedding, Miliband, who beat his older brother David to become party leader last year, told his local newspaper he had invited his sibling but had decided not to have a best man.
