    Had just one wife and never cheated on her unlike most of the aristocracy. Already earned my respect just for this.

      He actually did cheat with prostitutes. He was gave the girl money in a envelope with ''Grosvenor''on it. He had to step down from the military because he braged to the prostitute that he knew were Bin Ladin was or something like that. This was back in like 2007 and it has been scrubbed from the internet. All the major english newspapers wrote about back then but its gone now. The only mention i could find today was a post by huffpost. Just google his name and prostitute.

      It's true. He's saying it can work against you in many ways and he's being humble as well. That's a line many lords have repeated over the years, about 'Well maybe I can get a table more easily..'. It can really narrow the pool of women you might be able to date or want to date and marry. Many gold diggers, tricksters, scammers. Many people can't understand you and hold your title against you. It changes the way people view you, their expectations. Take him at face value when he says this.

    Is is second name Cavendish? Because the Dukes of Devonshire are from the Cavendish family.

    • @layla-loon75
      @layla-loon75 8 лет назад +3

      His middle name was Cavendish which did run in the family I think. His children are all named after his or his wife's relatives as well. His son is named after his predecessor the 1st Duke of Westminster Hugh Lupus Grosvenor His youngest Daughter is named after both his mother Viola and his wife's mother Georgina. So it wasn't just the estate and money that was handed down through the generations the names were toi.

    How considerate to be philanthropic with money that you never worked for in the first place. The idea of hereditary peerage in modern Britain, to say nothing of priviliege BECAUSE of that peerage should be an anathema to anyone who believes in democracy. High time we abolished the monarchy and the house of Lords.

    • @nialltomy15
      @nialltomy15 8 лет назад +12

      You do realise that hereditary peerage is gone in the House of Lords? When he current inherited peers die or resign they will be replaced with appointed life peers for their expertise, not their name.

    • @Martial-Mat
