The wedding, which cost a staggering £12 million, took place over three days.

He said: 'My younger daughter got married and I thought, as father of the bride, I should pay for the wedding. "But when it was suggested how much they would be spending on drinks, I thought it was absurd, and I managed to upset my daughter and my wife. "Then she spent in excess of £12 million on my daughter's wedding, which I did not know about until afterwards."

Her father, F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone, later revealed the amount, saying he had no idea the bill would be quite that big.
