From the Telegraph of 16 June 2022: WIGRAM Bertie - Robert Christopher Clive, aged 42, tragically killed in a road traffic accident on 13th June. Dearly beloved son of Gaby and Andrew, adored brother of Harry, Will and Alice, devoted brother-in-law to Niki, Lily and Foggy, and very loving uncle to Ivy, Polly,  Jesse and Billy. Best friend to so many.  Funeral on 30th June at 2.30 p.m. at St Michael & All Angels, Poulton, Cirencester GL7 5HX, everyone really welcome. Family flowers only...

He was the middle s of 3rd Baron WIGRAM MVO b 1949 and his 1st w Gabrielle Diana d of R D MOORE of New Zealand.

He was heir next after his elder brother Harry who is m with daus. His yr bro William was due to marry 5 Sept 2020 (nobiliana) Lily BARTON (see separate post). Not on DPB online

The notice mentions he's uncle to Ivy & Polly (Harry's daus) and Jesse & Billy (?children of his sister Alice whose m to Alec Fogarty (see separate post) appears to be confirmed here where the groom is described as 'Foggy' (from Fogarty). Not on DPB online)

A 'William Austin' FOGARTY was b 2017 GRO  reg Q2 Coventry

?A 'Jessica Seren' FOGARTY was b 2016 GRO reg Q3 Surrey - on balance probably not the Jesse referred to in the notice, but I give it here for completeness

It looks like the only ones in remainder are his older and younger brothers.  With the older one having only daughters and the younger shown as unmarried, the title certainly lacks heirs.

The Lords Wigram descend from the 18th child of the first Wigram Baronet (cr 1805), and are in remainder to that title.
