He was born in Bucharest, Wallachia, to the Ghicas, a prominent boyar family with strong Aromanian roots, and was the nephew of both Grigore Alexandru Ghica (who was to become Prince of Wallachia in the 1840s and 1850s) and Ion Câmpineanu, a Carbonari-inspired radical.
Ion Ghica was educated in Bucharest and in the West of Europe, studying engineering and mathematics in Paris from 1837 to 1840.
Ghica is also noted as one of the first major Liberal figures in the Kingdom of Romania, and one of the leaders of the incipient Liberal Party.
Grigore IV Ghica or Grigore Dimitrie Ghica was Prince of Wallachia between 1822 and 1828.
Although his is ultimately an Albanian lineage and many of his relatives had occupied the throne in both Bucharest and Iaşi, the regime change after the Greek War of Independence, Tudor Vladimirescu's actions and the Philikí Etaireía's brief rule in the two Principalities, Grigore IV is considered the first in a succession of non-Phanariote rulers.
The elections for Prince in the Divan, although prescribed by the Akkerman Convention of 1826, were not to be organized, due mainly to precipitating events.
