THE FRAY - RAY FRONTMAN NAMED AS HEIR TO $15 MILLION HOME

THE FRAY frontman ISAAC SLADE has been named as the heir to a $15 million (GBP7.5 million) English mansion - and could end up swapping his native U.S. for the U.K.
Baronet Sir Benjamin Slade launched a worldwide search on the Discovery Channel for a relative to bequeath the 13th century Maunsel House in Somerset to, with the singer named as the possible new owner of the 1500-acre site after an 18-month DNA search.
Sixty-year-old Sir Benjamin Slade is keen to pass the house on to a relative as the upkeep is expensive and he is no longer fit to keep it in order.
He says, "As we drove up I thought, 'Oh my God this is amazing.'
"I'd love to live here. But for now, it's great to see the house and spend some time with this crazy guy."
Sir Benjamin Slade adds, "I'm over the moon to have found Isaac. He isn't your typical rocker. He doesn't do drugs, he dresses and speaks respectfully. He and his wife will stay with us for two nights to get a feel for the place. We're pulling out all the stops - the champagne will flow all night. I want him to fall in love with my house so I can jump ship."
Maunsel House includes nine bedrooms, a ballroom, library, and an array of lakes, cottages and animals within its grounds.
