Computer tycoon Sir Clive Sinclair, 69, weds 33-year-old former lapdancer fiancÃ

Computer tycoon Sir Clive Sinclair, 69, weds 33-year-old former lapdancer fiancée Sir Clive, 69, who invented the pocket calculator and the ill-fated C5 electric car, is said to have married Miss Bowness in the US city's Civil Court in front of just one witness, a passer-by, on April 16. The couple have been seeing each other on and off for more than a decade and Sir Clive proposed to Miss Bowness, 33, last year. Sir Clive, a former Mensa chair with an IQ of 159, is thought to have bought a platinum wedding ring from jeweller Asprey before suggesting that the couple marry while on the plane to Las Vegas. "She agreed and we just got married in a very simple ceremony, with no fuss and just us present," he told The Daily Mail. "It was a spur of the moment thing." Asked what qualities attracted him to his bride, he replied: "Well she is a former Miss England, isn't she?" He said that while he had not expected to marry at the age of 69, he said of the 36 years between him and Miss Bowness: "It's just an age gap. Our relationship works extremely well." His new wife, who reportedly wore a short, blue Alexander Wang dress and Christian Louboutin shoes for the ceremony, told the paper: "We're over the moon. We're very happy." She previously said she found Sir Clive to be a "very attractive man". "I get cross when he's described as "balding Sir Clive Sinclair"," she said last year following their engagement. "He's actually incredibly attractive to women. You can't tell from the pictures. "To outsiders perhaps it looks strange, but none of our friends and family were at all surprised. They said they knew it was always going to happen one day. It's been a natural progression and apart from the attraction between us we're also best friends." Last night, a friend of Miss Bowness said: "Angie is absolutely over the moon to have married Sir Clive. And he's thrilled – he can't stop calling her My Lady." Miss Bowness, who has a 12-year-old son from a previous relationship, met Sir Clive in 1996 while she was working as a lapdancer at Stringfellows' club in central London and dated on and off for ten years. She now takes the title of Lady Sinclair because of her husband's life peerage. [view link]
