Wiki Leaks Founder Julian Assange to marry Stella Morris in London Jail on March 23rd
London: Wiki Leaks founder Julian Assange (50) will marry Stella Morris inside a high-security prison in South East London on Wednesday. Four guests will attend at a small ceremony, two official witnesses and two security guards in tight security prison.
Assange is wanted by US authorities to face trial on 18 counts relating to Wiki Leaks’ release of vast troves of confidential U.S. military records and diplomatic cables. He, who denies any wrongdoing, has been held at Belmarsh prison since 2019 and before that was holed up in the Ecuadorean embassy in London for seven years.
While living at the embassy he fathered two children with Morris, a lawyer more than a decade his junior, who he met in 2011 when she started work on his legal team. Their relationship began in 2015. The registrar led ceremony will take place during visiting hours at the prison.
Morris’s wedding dress and Assange’s kilt a nod to his family ties to Scotland have been created by British fashion designer Vivienne Westwood, who has previously campaigned against his extradition.
