Eric Clapton – Clapton Gives Daughter Away At Wedding (Saturday 10 September 2011)
“Rocker Eric Clapton beamed with delight on Saturday (10Sep11) as he escorted his daughter to her wedding.
The guitar legend drove his daughter Ruth to the ceremony at St Mary Magdalen Church in Surrey, England in his vintage Bentley.
Clapton was the proud father as he walked Ruth down the aisle in front of around 200 guests as she wed Dean Bartlett, before the musician then drove the happy couple to the reception at a nearby venue.
And he’s not the only rocker to have given their daughter away over the weekend (10-11Sep11) – Clapton’s former bandmate Steve Winwood also watched as his daughter Mary Clare wed Ben Elliott, in front of guests including Jamie Cullum and Sophie Dahl.”

“The marriage was held at the church of St Mary Magdalen in Ripley, near the home Clapton shares with his second wife, Melia McEnery, and their three daughters, Julie, Ella and Sophie, who acted as flower girls.”
“For around an hour, Clapton, 66, entertained the 150 guests with his band on a stage erected in a marquee in the grounds of his Surrey mansion.”
“‘Ruth sang Use Somebody, by The Kings of Leon, as her special surprise for Dean, with Clapton backing her,’ says a friend of the couple. ‘She’s got a good voice and has sung with her father before.’”
