From the Times of 27 June 2013: Ian RANKIN & Prue LANE FOX  The marriage took place on 4th June 2013, between Ian and Prue. They will no longer be living in sin, but in London and Hampshire.

Can anyone place Prue on the LANE FOX family tree? I wonder if she's a dau of Martin James LANE FOX (b 1938) who appears to have m 1965 (reg Q1 Westminster) __ SPORBORG (* see below) and had issue:
1 Oliver James (b 1968 reg Q3 Kensington)
1 Charlotte Mary (b 1967, reg Q2 Paddington)
2 Sophia Anne (b 1972, reg Q3 Paddington)

Does one of the above daus use the name Prue?

(*) is Martin Lane Fox's wife Prudence M (b 1942 reg Q3 Rugby, Warwickshire) d of Henry N SPORBORG who m 1935 (reg June, Chelsea) __ ROWLANDS.

Maybe Martin Lane Fox and his wife divorced and she is the one who got married?  Well, she's called Prudence...

Martin Lane Fox is a garden designer, and his home Bloxworth House is currently up for sale:


He is the son of James Henry FRCS and Ann Loyd.  James, in turn, was the son of Edward Lane Fox and Maud Bethell. 

Martin is the uncle of Baroness Lane Fox of Soho.

I can't find Prudence..

And could the groom be Sir Ian Rankin, 4th Baronet?

From the Telegraph of 1 July 2013: Sir Ian Rankin, Bt, and Mrs P.M. Lane Fox - The marriage has taken place between Sir Ian Rankin, Bt, and Mrs Prue Lane Fox.

Having seen this announcement, I now assume that the bride is the former wife of Martin James LANE FOX above, ie Prudence M SPORBORG (b 1942).
