The surprise attendees of Princess Beatrice and Edoardo’s secret wedding
The world was left shocked when it was revealed Princess Beatrice had said “I do” in a secret wedding.
Details have been scarce, but what is known about the pair’s nuptials is that they conducted a private ceremony surrounded by only 20 other guests after they were forced to postpone their original May wedding.
Among those 20 guests was Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip and other members of Beatrice and Edoardo’s family.
However the other 18 guests who were chosen to attend the top secret nuptials was kept tightly under wraps.
Buckingham Palace released a statement around 24 hours after their secret nuptials, confirming that the ceremony only included the pair's "close family".
According to Hello! Magazine however, Edo's young niece and nephew, Coco and Freddie were two very lucky attendees.
According to the report, the young children joined their cousin Wolfie, who is the four-year-old son of Edo, in taking up a rather important role in the wedding.
Wolfie took on the ultimate job of best man, while Coco and Freddie played bridesmaid and pageboy alongside their cousin.
HELLO! also confirmed Duchess Catherine, Prince William and their three children George, Charlotte and Louis were not present at the nuptials.
On Sunday, Kate and Wills added to Beatrice and Edo's long list of well-wishers.
The pair posted an official image from Bea's wedding to their Instagram account with a congratulatory message.
"Congratulations to HRH Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi who were married in a small private ceremony at the Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge, Windsor on Friday!" The pair wrote.
Princess Eugenie was also one of the lucky few to attend the ceremony and shared her own congratulations to her elder sister and new brother-in-law.
"Couldn't Bea happier (get it) 🐝... ," she wrote in a jovial pun on her sister's name.
"What a complete joy and privilege to watch you, my beautiful big sister, walk down the aisle to dear Edo. I am so proud of you and I'm so excited to support you in the next chapter of your life. We are going to have so much fun together.
"Happy wedding day to you both xxxx," she finished.
