Jemima Goldsmith has married again. The 52-year-old filmmaker and former wife of Imran Khan exchanged vows with Cameron O'Reilly, a 62-year-old Irish Australian financier, over the weekend, according to her family.
The confirmation came from Jemima Jones, married to Goldsmith's brother Ben, who posted a photograph from the celebrations on Instagram. "Celebrating Jemima and Cameron's wedding, with my favourite date, what a happy day," she wrote. No further details about the venue or guest list have surfaced yet.
Goldsmith and O'Reilly are reported to have connected over a shared interest in film and documentary work, which tracks. Goldsmith isn't just a public figure who married into Pakistani politics once upon a time. She's the founder of Instinct Productions and has written and produced several projects, including "What's Love Got to Do with It?", the cross-cultural rom-com directed by Shekhar Kapur that gave Bollywood watchers a rare Anglo-Indian crossover to talk about. She's also written for The New Statesman and Vanity Fair, and has long been vocal on human rights.
A marriage that follows nine years and a very public split
Goldsmith was married to Imran Khan for around nine years before their divorce in 2004. They have two sons, Sulaiman and Kasim, both British citizens who have spent recent months campaigning for their father's release. Khan, the former Pakistani prime minister and cricketer, remains in prison in Rawalpindi.
That backdrop makes the timing of this wedding land differently than it might otherwise. Just last month, Goldsmith posted on social media about her ex-husband's incarceration, framing it in terms that went well beyond a family matter.
"This is no longer simply a Pakistani political matter. It is a human-rights emergency," she wrote, pointing to Khan's decades-long ties to Britain, his Oxford years and time captaining the university's cricket side, and his charitable work, which she said included building Pakistan's only free cancer hospital.
She went further on her sons' behalf. "His sons, my two boys, Sulaiman and Kasim, are British citizens. They have been forced to watch their father's health decline from thousands of miles away, prevented from visiting him, denied visas, publicly threatened by government officials with arrest themselves, and even denied court-mandated regular phone calls," she said.
None of those claims have been independently verified here, and Pakistani authorities haven't responded publicly to this specific characterisation as far as available reporting shows. What's clear is that Goldsmith is running two parallel tracks right now: a fresh marriage she's celebrating openly, and an advocacy campaign for a former husband she's clearly still fighting for, on their sons' behalf if nothing else.
Whether Khan's legal situation shifts in the coming weeks remains the bigger, unresolved story. Goldsmith's wedding is a happy footnote to a family history that's still being written from a prison cell in Rawalpindi.
