Diandra Luker, introduced Hollywood mega-star Michael Douglas to Mallorca. She had been educated at one of the international schools on the island and loved Mallorca very dearly. They bought S'Estaca, the historic house between Deya and Valldemossa which Michael Douglas still owns alomgside his new wife, Catherine Zeta Jones.
Even after their divorced they continued to enjoy S'Estaca after reaching a "time-share deal." Michael Douglas' new second wife, Catherine Zeta Jones, bought Diandra's share of S'Estaca a few years ago. Last month Diandra was in the headlines again after marrying William Legge, 10th Earl of Dartmouth, and a former European Member of Parliament for the United Kingdom Independence Party, (UKIP). They married in Gibraltar, an area he once represented in Brussels.
Dartmouth is the eldest son of the 9th Earl of Dartmouth and Raine McCorquodale, the daughter of romantic novelist Dame Barbara Cartland. He became a stepbrother of Lady Diana Spencer when in 1976 his mother remarried.
Dartmouth was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford, where he was elected an officer of the Oxford University Conservative Association and of the Oxford Union Society. He graduated BA, later promoted to MA, and proceeded to the Harvard Business School, where he graduated MBA.
In 1997, he inherited his father's peerages, and as Earl of Dartmouth sat as a Conservative peer in the House of Lords until 1999, when the first Blair ministry's House of Lords Act 1999 removed all but 92 hereditary peers from Parliament. In January 2007, Dartmouth announced he was leaving the Conservatives in favour of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), citing concerns about the policies of David Cameron, then Leader of HM Opposition.
At the European Parliament election of 2009, Dartmouth was elected as the second UKIP MEP for the South West England region and re-elected in 2014, when he was the first UKIP MEP on the regional list. In the European Parliament he sat with the Europe of Freedom and Democracy group (later the Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy) and served on the Committee on International Trade. In 2010, he became UKIP's national spokesman on Trade and Industry and in February 2016 was appointed as one of the party's two national Deputy Chairmen.
He was the author of many UKIP, EFD, and EFDD publications. On 22 January 2018, following UKIP's National Executive Committee vote of no confidence in leader Henry Bolton on the previous day, Dartmouth stood down as trade and industry spokesman, placing further pressure on Bolton to resign.
In September 2018, Dartmouth resigned from the UK Independence Party, citing concerns about the behaviour of the new Leader, Gerard Batten, and complaining that the party was "widely perceived as both homophobic and anti-Islamic".
