Phones4U billionaire sees daughter married in luxury wedding at five-star resort

Phones4U billionaire John Caudwell watched on with pride as his daughter wed the man of her dreams in a lavish ceremony at a five-star hotel.

The entrepreneur's daughter Libby, 31, married Simon Morgan at a resort on Sveti Stefan, a small island off the coast of Montenegro.

John, who sold Phones4U for £1.5billion in 2006, said his child made a 'stunning bride' and told his Instagram followers that he danced until 3am after the wedding.

Posting on Instagram, the proud father said: "My beautiful daughter @libbyc4 is married! She made the most stunning bride against the most beautiful backdrop in #svetistefan.

"I am also honoured to welcome such a kind and caring young man @simon_morgan_ to our family.

"We enjoyed a heartfelt ceremony filled with love, tears and so much joy, a perfect moment to share with the people we love.

"The ceremony was followed by the most phenomenal wedding reception which saw us dancing under the stars until 3am!"

The billionaire also shared his pride at seeing his daughter walk down the aisle in the post.

The ceremony was a star-studded affair, with celebrity guests including Dragons Den businessman Duncan Bannatyne, the Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson and Real Housewives of Cheshire star Dawn Ward.

John ended his marriage with Kate McFarlane in 2001 and then had a romance with violinist Jane Burgess, before starting a long-term relationship with Claire Johnson.

The 66-year-old is now dating 35-year-old Lithuanian cyclist Modesta Vžesniauskaitė.

Libby, who attended the fee-paying Cheltenham Ladies College as a child, essentially cut herself off from her father after leaving university in a bid to forge her own identity.

She moved to Australia and started teaching water sports for a living, before eventually moving back to the UK.
