James Robert Bruce Ogilvy (born 29 February 1964) is the elder child and only son of Sir Angus Ogilvy and Princess Alexandra of Kent.[2][3][4]

Early life and family

He was born in Thatched House Lodge, Richmond Park, Surrey[5][6] and was the first of four children born to royalty in 1964. He is a godson of Queen Elizabeth II.[7] When he was born he was 13th in the line of succession to the British throne.[3] As of May 2015, he is 50th.

Baptism

The Most Reverend Arthur Michael Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury, performed Ogilvy's baptism; seven godparents, starting with Queen Elizabeth II, attended. Water from the River Jordan was used in the ceremony, and Ogilvy wore the christening robe that was originally made for the children of his ancestor, Queen Victoria.[8]

Education and professional life

Ogilvy attended Heatherdown Preparatory School, Eton College, and the University of St Andrews.

He is the publisher and founder of Luxury Briefing, a magazine launched in 1996,[4][9] and has served on numerous boards of directors.

Marriage

He married Julia Caroline Rawlinson on 30 July 1988 in Saffron Walden, Essex. The couple have two children.[4][10] They are also in the line of succession:

  • Flora Alexandra Ogilvy (born 15 December 1994) - She is currently 52nd in line to the British throne.
  • Alexander Charles Ogilvy (born 12 November 1996) - He is currently 51st in line to the British throne.

He is also a godfather of Princess Eugenie of York, the younger daughter of Andrew, Duke of York, and Sarah, Duchess of York.

Ancestry and succession

His maternal grandparents were Prince George, Duke of Kent, the fourth son of King George V, and Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark, known after her marriage as Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent. Princess Marina was the daughter of Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark and Grand Duchess Elena Vladimirovna of Russia (later known as Princess Nicholas of Greece and Denmark). He has a younger sister, Marina Ogilvy.[6][11]

Ogilvy does not hold any royal title or perform royal duties. His mother, Princess Alexandra, does however perform royal duties on behalf of the Queen, her first cousin. As an extended member of the British Royal Family, James Ogilvy is invited to major royal occasions, such as weddings and funerals; he accompanied his widowed mother to the wedding of The Prince of Wales and Camilla Parker Bowles in April 2005.

In addition to being in line for the throne through his mother, he is in line, through his father, to the Earldom of Airlie.
