Robbie Williams performs at lavish wedding ceremony of Russian oligarch's daughter


August 17, 2016

Having Robbie Williams sing at your wedding is a dream scenario for many fans, and something that became a reality for the daughter of a Russian oligarch. According to reports, Robbie earned £1.6million for the private gig at an actual castle in Prague.

Hundreds of guests turned out to see oil tycoon Rashid Sardarov's daughter Victoria tie the knot with former bouncer Anton Antonov, including Victoria's Secret model Sara Sampaio.

Robbie, 42, entertained Victoria and Anton's friends and family with a medley of his greatest hits before joining the Gothic-themed party. There was a strict all black dress code for guests – and the wedding is said to set Rashid back a cool £8million.

And it seems even 25-year-old Sara couldn't resist the charms of Robbie as she later posted a snap of them at the event, captioned: "He sang Angels just to me #anglesinprague @robbiewilliams #nakedblack."

Guests were allegedly banned from sharing photos of the bride and groom on social media and some sources even told Czech media the wedding took place in June, but was shrouded in such secrecy that details are only just emerging.

Rashid, 61, is one of the 500 richest people in Russia and owns South Ural Industrial Company. No expense was spared for his daughter; the wedding cake was created in Russia and flown to Zofin Palace in Prague, the flowers came all the way from France and guests were driven to the celebrations in Mercedes cars.

An insider told Czech news outlets: "There were many very rich people among the wedding guests. Some of them said the wedding cost £8.06million."
