From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Charles James Spencer-Churchill aka Jamie Blandford (born 24 November 1955), styled Marquess of Blandford is an English aristocrat and the heir apparent to the dukedom of Marlborough . Lord Blandford's friends call him "Speggy".^[1]

Lord Blandford is the eldest son of the 11th Duke of Marlborough, and his first wife, Susan Mary Hornby (later Mrs John Gough).

He was largely disinherited by his father, who disapproved of his lifestyle, in 1994^{[citation needed]}. He shall, of course, inherit the Dukedom of Marlborough upon his father's demise.
