Joan Collins Walks Son Alexander Newley Down the Aisle

Dame Joan Collins experienced a milestone moment as a mother when she proudly walked her only son, Alexander Newley, down the aisle at his wedding in Salzburg, Austria. The 92-year-old actress, known for her iconic role in Dynasty, was all smiles as she accompanied her son during the elegant lakeside ceremony.

The wedding marked a rare public family moment for the Golden Globe winner. According to the New York Post, Joan Collins’ son tied the knot with Sheela Raman at a castle venue surrounded by family and friends. The couple’s daughter, three-year-old Deia Shanaya, also played a sweet role in the celebration.

Alexander looked sharp in a black-and-white suit while Raman stunned in a vintage lace gown. In their joint post, the newlyweds called their day “a reflection of the creative life we’re building together, full of music, laughter and love.” For Joan Collins’ son, it was a day that celebrated not only marriage but family, with his daughter and mother by his side.

Family Legacy and Special Memories

The marriage is the second for Alexander, who shares daughter Ava Grace, 20, with his ex-wife, jewelry designer Angela Tassoni. Joan Collins’ son is also part of a storied Hollywood legacy as the child of Collins and her late second husband, Anthony Newley. The two also had a daughter, Tara, now 61. Anthony passed away in 1999.

Collins later welcomed another daughter, Katyana, with her third husband, Ron Kass, and has been married to Percy Gibson since 2002. Reflecting on family in a past interview, the actress said that “what makes me happiest is seeing my children happy.” The Salzburg wedding offered Collins just that—an unforgettable moment of joy and love shared across generations.
