- Share via
LONDON — Queen Elizabeth II’s youngest son, Prince Edward, will marry his girlfriend, Sophie Rhys-Jones, in a low-key ceremony this summer, the Sunday Express reported.
The newspaper quoted palace sources as saying preparations were well advanced for a wedding in late July or early August.
“It will be a low-key wedding and will take place before the first leaves fall,” the Sunday Express quoted an unnamed peer with close connections to the Royal Family as saying.
On Saturday, the couple were reported on their way to Windsor Castle, west of London, where the Queen and family traditionally spend several weeks at Easter.
Edward, 30, is the Queen’s only unmarried child. The other three--heir Prince Charles, Princess Anne and Prince Andrew--have had troubled marriages.
