David Lascelles, Viscount Lascelles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Henry George Lascelles, Viscount Lascelles (born 21 October 1950) is a British film producer and the eldest son of the 7th Earl of Harewood and his first wife, Marion Stein. His father is a first cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, and he is in line to the British throne as well as Heir Apparent of the Earldom of Harewood.
Lascelles was born in Bayswater, London and was baptised at All Saints' Church, Harewood. His godparents were The Duchess of Edinburgh (now Elizabeth II), Queen Mary, The Viscountess Boyne, Benjamin Britten and The Hon. Gerald Lascelles.
On 12 February 1979, he married Margaret Rosalind Messenger (born 1948): they were divorced in 1989. On 11 March 1990, he married Diane Jane Howse. The two older children of Lord Lascelles and his first wife were born out of wedlock and, though subsequently legitimised by the marriage of their parents, have no claims to the Harewood titles. The two younger children, legitimate from birth, do fall within peerage regulations.
