The British royal family celebrates a wedding in a small English village. Ex-Prince Andrew's daughters are also in attendance.
In a picturesque village in the English county of Gloucestershire, the British royal family celebrated the wedding of the nephew of King Charles III (77), Peter Phillips, and his wife Harriet. The son of Princess Anne married the nurse in a private ceremony at All Saints' Church in the village of Kemble.
The British monarch and his wife, Queen Camilla (78), were greeted with cheers when they arrived at the church, according to media reports. Pictures show the two of them getting out of the car with broad smiles. The heir to the throne, Prince William (43) and Princess Kate (44), also took part in the celebrations.

The royal family announced the couple's engagement in the summer of 2025. Phillips has no royal title following an early decision by Anne and her first husband Mark Phillips.

Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling, who also bears the name Phillips from then on, began their relationship in 2024, according to the BBC. The 48-year-old separated from his first wife, Autumn Kelly, four years earlier.
The daughters of the fallen ex-Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, Princess Beatrice (37) and Princess Eugenie (36), were also present. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor fell into disrepute in the wake of the scandal surrounding the deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Peter Phillips also invited his cousins, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, with their husbands Edo and Jack.

It’s the first time they’ve been seen in public following the revelation they live in royal palaces while their uncle, King Charles, pays their rent.

Over time, he was stripped of all his titles and honors. Most recently, he was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office, and the police are still investigating him.
Andrew made headlines again on Friday. As a report by the British National Audit Office (NAO) revealed, Charles' brother not only lived rent-free in the luxurious Royal Lodge estate in Windsor for years, but also received income from subletting outbuildings.
According to the report, Beatrice and Eugenie also have very favorable rental agreements for their royal properties - but they don't have to pay, because Uncle Charles foots the bill. This is despite the fact that they do not perform any official duties for the royal family.
