The Titanic star, 37 – who wed Sir Richard’s nephew Ned RocknRoll in a secret ceremony in New York – has been given a £124,000 ticket to leave the atmosphere on a Virgin Galactic flight.
She got the free offer after she rescued Sir Richard’s mother Eve from a fire on his £60 million Necker Island retreat last year, the Sun reported.
In September Sir Richard said: "I'm not sure she wants to go on a one-way trip to Mars, but she wants to go into space."
RocknRoll, 34, works part time for Virgin Galactic which hopes to start flights next year.
More than 530 people have already bought a £124,000 ticket including comedian Russell Brand, actor Ashton Kutcher and science genius Stephen Hawking who also received a free ride courtesy of Branson.
