Princess Beatrice, granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II to his son Prince Andrew, married fiance Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, a real estate developer, in a small private ceremony held at Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge, Windsor on July 17.

The private ceremony took place 11am on Friday 17th of July, and was attended by The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip, and close family following the government guidelines for social distance measures of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Buckingham Palace confirmed.

Both Prince Andrew and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, The Duke and Duchess of York, Princess Beatrice parents, and her sister Princess Eugenie were among the 20 family members and close friends who attended the small ceremony.

Princess Beatrice 31, and Mapelli 35, originally planned tying the knot  29th May at the Chapel Royal, St James Palace following their engagement September last year in Italy, but it has since delayed due to coronavirus lockdown which began on March 23 banning ceremonies and people from leaving their homes. However, since July 04, ceremonies of up to 30 people have been allowed and Prince Beatrice wedding broke off as a surprise.

The glimpse of the private wedding was unveiled with the Buckingham Palace releasing official photographs of the newlywed couple.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wedding in 2018 was reported to have an estimated 1.9 billion global audience with the live TV broadcast, Prince William and Kate in 2011 for 2.2 billion, Prince Charles and Diana in 1981 for 750 million, and The Queen’s wedding through radio in 1947 with 200 million.

Britain’s Royal appeal across the globe proved to have such a huge followings. And the excitement to see a fairytale royal wedding is the same as the one that was set for live broadcast and the one that was kept in a small ceremony.

This time, Princess Beatrice wedding, a Royal Family member as widely known like her cousins Prince William and Prince Harry, has her wedding captured just exactly as serene and unique with the global health pandemic measures requiring social distance and without the frenzy media coverage.

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi tying the knot was an equally historic royal wedding happened amidst the global health pandemic. The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh small smiles and with small size of attendees, it seemed no one is objecting the wedding and everyone is approving it, do they?
