    I was on duty at the wedding of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. I was standing in Birdcage Walk as the guests cars were making their way to Buckingham Palace for the reception. The Duchess was in one car, alone. leant towards the window, looked directly at me and mouth, Thank you so much and gave me such a beautiful smile. Such a great lady.

Next to Constantine is Infante Juan Carlos of Spain with his father, Juan, Count of Barcelona. Sophia and Juan Carlos had met before but got reacquainted at this wedding and would get engaged three months later and had their own wedding a year after in May 1962.

      Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester would be King today and his descent through his mother, Princess Alice, would have brought Lord Monmouth's blood line back into its rightful place after Richard Scott, the tenth Duke of Buccleuch.
      Had Catholic James ll not taken Protestant Lord Monmouth's head off, he would most likely have succeeded becoming King. He always did believe his father King Charles ll did marry his mother, Lucy Walters.

      If you host the Monarch , you already expect that, HOWEVER the Monarch does her best to sit back on such occasions. H.M. is acutely aware of the status that surrounds her in her every day of life. The diaries of many previous Monarchs, going back centuries, dictate into quite some details of same and similar accounts and share experiences and illustrate useful guides in how to make attempts in avoiding distraction from the source of such events. Eye focus is key ;-)

      Of course The Queen is the center of attention. Since Edward is a descendant of King George II, they needed the Queen’s consent to get married, pursuant to the Royal Marriages Act of 1772, as then in effect. They are still married to each other. They had four children: George (born 1962), Helen (born 1964), Nicholas (born 1970), and Patrick (stillborn 1977).
      Katharine converted to Roman Catholicism in 1994. This did not affect Edward’s place in the succession to the throne, because she was not Catholic when he married her. Her son, Nicholas, also converted to the Popish religion, so he is excluded from the succession.
      The heir apparent to the title of Duke of Kent is George. In 1988, he married a Catholic and thereby forfeited his place in the succession. His place was restored in 2015, when the Act of Settlement of 1701 was amended. His children, Edward and Marina, are papists, and they are barred from inheriting the Crown.

      Both were Protestant when they married. Otherwise, under the rules at that time, the Duke would have forfeited his place of the succession (as Prince Michael did).
      I did read somewhere that Princess Marina was not too happy with her son's choice of bride. As I have forgotten the source, I am wondering if it was true.

      Well spotted! It does rather look like the late Earl, or rather more popularly known as The Viscount Althorp.. He certainly would not have been out of place being there as he served as equerry to both our late Queen and her father, George V1 around about that time. More so, the Viscount was married at that time to the daughter of one of our late Queen's 'Ladies-in-Waiting'. (Ruth Fermoy, I think). Lot's of 'Royal' connections and by golly, I should have thought that NOT inviting him would have been deemed most odd!
