Peter Phillips is set to marry for the second time next week, enlisting the same wedding planner who orchestrated his first nuptials. The 48-year-old nephew of King Charles will wed NHS nurse Harriet Sperling in an intimate ceremony in the Cotswolds next Saturday. High-profile royal guests, including King Charles, Prince William, and Princess Kate, are expected to attend.
Ceremony Details and Guests
The service will take place at All Saints Church in Cirencester. Among the anticipated guests are Queen Camilla, Prince Edward, Sophie, Princess Anne, Captain Mark Phillips, and Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence. Zara and Mike Tindall are also expected, likely with their children. Peter's daughters from his first marriage, Savannah and Isla, along with Harriet's daughter Georgina, will participate in the ceremony.
Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 11, and Prince Louis, 8, may or may not attend. Sarah Ferguson, Andrew Mountbatten, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle are not expected to be present. A source told HELLO! magazine that their attendance would cause a distraction, and Peter and Harry have not spoken in several years.
