Are there no laws specifically only for 'marriage' but not other contracts? 
You're either trying to make a point extremely badly or there is no point but you're determined to give the impression that there is.
I'm happy for him and his partner. Can't help but feel that his partner looks very awkward and uncomfortable in every pic I've seen of them together. Though maybe he's just camera shy or something.

The point is marriage contracts are treated as another category of contracts due to the way the laws have made them to be, so contracts outside of the 'system' cannot overrule the laws within it, ie the 'clause' of marriage cannot be changed.

You're talking nonsense.

Even if this were true, when it comes to divorce, the marriage contract is long gone.
The reason why pre-nups had limited effect in the UK came down to policy.
Back in the day, divorce was frowned upon. People did not like the idea of people planning for the breakup of their marriage. It was also believed that a pre-nup would encourage divorce.
It was also felt that agreements made between husband and wife ought not tie the hands of the court.
Then you have issues of changing circumstances and ensuring fairness.
Nowadays, the first reason is not really valid. Society has moved on. The second and third issue are somewhat still in play (the third especially). This means that pre-nups could become more common place and carry more weight. Though there would still be judicial oversight of sorts.

He's a horrible fat pervert. He has serious mental health problems as discussed in a recent BBC documentary. He has bipolar disorder too.
Having found out that his husband to be is only 27, I've now lost all respect and empathy I had for Stephen.

In other words, jealousy speaks much.

OMG You're so ****ing clever. No one would've guessed I was jealous! Of course I'm jealous. I mean, who wouldn't be? All that wealth to be taken advantage of. Fry is delusional. He's been blinded for love after having been alone for most of his life. Only, he'll be robbed of everything...

although the age gap shocked me a bit
Men should not be marrying one another. It is immoral, unnatural and unbritish.

That's a 30 year age gap.
I hope that Ipswich Town fans do not sing hateful songs about him (Stephen Fry is a Norwich City football club director).
I didn't even know he was gay.

Neither did I, but looking back I'm not surprised at all....

Do you really think he enjoys sleeping with a fat guy who is nearly 60.
