The family of a man who went viral for his TV interviews about his Covid jab wanted the late Archbishop's daughter to conduct the funeral, but had to change plans when the Church of England said 'no'.
Instead the family of Martin Kenyon will be holding the 'service' in the back garden of his country home in the south of the county.
Instead she will be present along with family, friends and villagers in the garden of the home Martin and loved, despite a life spent travelling. In it she said she said she couldn't believe it when her wife told her she would not be allowed to be present in church as a priest during the funeral of Martin.
Mr Kenyon's daughter, Nina, said the ruling had also caused some ill-feeling in the village and they had to hastily change the arrangements to use the house, but they were determined the day wouldn't be spoilt. "We have the church organist playing an electric piano, we have put a marquee up at short notice and everyone has rallied round from caterers to musicians to the villagers.
