The 37-year-old has an older brother Lord Frederick, 39, who is married to actress Sophie Winkleman – the sister of TV presenter Claudia.
Lady Gabriella was educated at Queen’s Gate School in London and Downe House School in Cold Ash, Berkshire.
She moved to the US to study Comparative Literature and graduated from Brown University in Rhode Island in 2004. She later obtained a MPhil degree in Social Anthropology from Linacre College, Oxford.
Lady Gabriella is a Senior Director for Branding Latin America, a brand positioning platform that specialises in the region, based in Knightsbridge. She is also a writer and contributes to The London Magazine amongst others.
