John Reginald Lopes Yarde-Buller, 3rd Baron Churston, MVO, OBE (9 November 1873–19 April 1930) was a British peer and soldier.

Yarde-Buller was the only son of the 2nd Baron Churston and his wife, Barbara, the only child of Sir Hastings Yelverton and the 20th Baroness Grey de Ruthyn.

He was also aide-de-camp to The Lord Curzon, Viceroy of India from 1902-03 and then to The Duke of Connaught from 1904-06.

On 24 April 1907, he married the music hall singer, Denise Orme and they had six children, most of whom were known for their high-profile marriages and divorces:
