Star-studded! These Hollywood greats come (probably) to the wedding of Princess Eugenie ??
After the wedding of Prince Harry (34) and Duchess Meghan (37), the second royal wedding of the year is approaching. Princess Eugenie (28) will give Jack Brooksbank (32) the eve on October 12th. While the bride has so far revealed no details about her dress, there are already some interesting facts about the big party ...
Why is it celebrated so big?
Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie of York - the full title - is the granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II (92) and the second daughter of Prince Andrew (58) and Sarah Ferguson (58). Eugenie's parents divorced in 1996. The 28-year-old is ninth in the line of succession, directly behind her sister Beatrice (30). She keeps her title after the wedding. Eugenie studied English and art history at Newcastle University and runs a gallery for contemporary art in London.
Who is Eugenie's fiancé?
Jack Brooksbank, who comes from a wealthy family, is a former manager of the nightclub Mahiki, according to British media reports. He now has his own business and is a brand ambassador for George Clooney's "Casamigos" tequila. Brooksbank and Eugenie are said to have met eight years ago while skiing in the Swiss Alps. The queen supposedly gave her blessing two years ago. Maybe the monarch gives the 32-year-old in the course of the wedding even the title of a count. In January, Brooksbank stopped in Nicaragua for the hand of Eugenie. The two live together in an apartment in Kensington Palace.
Where does the wedding take place?
Just like Meghan and Harry, Eugenie and Jack marry in St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle. In the afternoon, the Queen will give a reception for her granddaughter, her then newlywed husband and her guests at Windsor Castle. There was criticism in the run-up to the fact that taxpayers have to pay not for the wedding ceremony, but for the security measures in Windsor.
Who is on the guest list?
On the grounds of the castle, as in Prince Harry's wedding, 1200 people were invited, for example members of charitable organizations. There will be around 800 guests in the chapel, including some famous faces. Among Eugenie's friends allegedly include singer Ellie Goulding (31), singer James Blunt (44), the actor couple Mila Kunis (35) and Ashton Kutcher (40) or Model Cara Delevingne (26). There are also rumors that George (57) and Amal Clooney (40) are returning to a royal wedding. They were already present at Prince Harry's wedding. Model Cindy Crawford (52), actor Eddie Redmayne (36) and musician Robbie Williams (44) may also be on the guest list as "The Telegraph" speculates.
Almost all of the high-ranking members of the royal family are among them: besides Eugenie's parents and her sister Beatrice, who is her maid of honor, the Queen is expected as well as Eugenie's uncle Prince Charles (69). His wife Camilla (71), however, is allegedly not going to attend the wedding because she is said to have previously pledged a primary school festival in Scotland on this date. According to Telegraph, 97-year-old Prince Philip will only decide at short notice if he feels well enough to go to the party.
Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan are expected to return to Windsor Castle as guests. Adorable family highlight will probably be the children of Prince William (36) and Duchess Kate (36), Prince George (5) and Princess Charlotte (3). Together with Robbie Williams' eldest daughter Theodora "Teddy" Rose Williams (6), they will allegedly act as flower children.
Who sings for Eugenie and her husband?
The world-famous singer Andrea Bocelli (60) is to recite two pieces of music during the service, they say. Also musicians of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will obviously play at the ceremony.
