Princess Beatrice, 29, and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi "are currently reviewing their plans" for their wedding, which is due to take place in St. James's Palace in London in May, the palace said. The corona virus is to blame. Royal expert Omid Scobie reports that the couple could postpone the wedding entirely by a year, according to sources.
Princess Beatrice: will she postpone her wedding until 2021?
"Beatrice and Mr. Mapelli Mozzi are very excited to be married, but are equally aware of the need to avoid taking unnecessary risks under the current circumstances. The couple are reviewing their plans in line with government recommendations for the UK and beyond," he said Buckingham Palace's English court rapporteurs on Wednesday afternoon (March 18) with. The Church of England has announced that planned weddings, which should take place during the corona crisis, must be reduced to the minimum. According to this, only five people are allowed to participate, including the pastor and the newlyweds.
Therefore, the question now is: How do you celebrate, with many guests or in the closest circle? A show like the weddings of Prince Harry, 35, with Duchess Meghan, 38, in May 2018 and Princess Eugenie, 31, with Jake Brooksbank in October 2018, is extremely unlikely this year. Therefore, the royal expert believes that the royal couple will completely postpone their wedding – both the wedding ceremony and the celebration. "Based on what I've heard after talking to sources, the couple is now considering a complete postponement until 2021," said Omid Scobie.
The palace added: "The couple will carefully review the government's advice before deciding whether a private wedding will take place with a small group of family members and friends."
Beatrice's wedding party is canceled
But one thing is certain: A reception planned immediately after the wedding in the garden of Buckingham Palace will not take place. The statement states:
"You (Beatrice and Edoardo) are particularly aware of government advice regarding both the well-being of older family members and large gatherings of people, so the planned reception is not taking place in the Buckingham Palace garden."
