Hugh Grosvenor becomes Britain's most eligible bachelorWPA PoolIt is not something he would have at all wished for himself, but at the age of 25, Hugh Richard Louis Grosvenor has been left contemplating the fact that overnight he has become Britain's most eligible bachelor. But the Bill failed to make it past the committee stage, meaning all eyes are now on Hugh Grosvenor, seventh Duke of Westminster. It is only as a result of Britain's ancient laws of primogeniture that Hugh has inherited his father's title. Hugh, whose previous title was Earl Grosvenor, studied countryside management at Newcastle University, and later studied at Oxford. The new Duke will not pay inheritance tax because the Grosvenor estate is run as a trust, much like a company, rather than being his personal property.
