Guests arrive for Princess Eugenie's royal wedding

GUESTS are starting to arrive for Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank, to be held at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle today.

Eugenie, 28, the daughter of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah ‘Fergie’ Ferguson, will marry her boyfriend of seven years in a ceremony attended by most senior members of the Royal Family, including the Queen and Prince Philip.

Pixie Geldof is amont the first of the expected 800 to arrive, as guests struggle to keep their hats on in high winds:

Chelsy Davy, who famously dated Prince Harry for seven years (from 2004 until 2011) is also among the early arrivals.

It’s understood Princess Eugenie and Chelsy have been close friends for years - and it was actually Eugenie who introduced her to Harry.

Seriously, is this wedding being held in a wind tunnel?

One A-list couple who will definitely not be in attendance, ending months of speculation: George Clooney and wife Amal. Brooksbank works as the European Brand Manager for Clooney’s tequila company and the Hollywood couple were among the famous faces at Harry and Meghan’s wedding in May.

Two early celeb sightings at the wedding: singer James Blunt and supermodel Kate Moss. Expect to see more famous faces arrive in the coming hours.

There’s already a heavy police presence in the area:

Overnight, Eugenie and her fiancee fronted up to the cameras for an interview on ITV, the channel airing the wedding in the UK after the BBC knocked back the option to air the event.

Eugenie admitted the prospect of such a big wedding was “a bit scary,” but at the end of the day you get to marry the person you love … and you’re going to be at the end of the aisle, and I’m going to be running towards you!”

The nuptials come five months after the other royal wedding of 2018, Prince Harry’s wedding to American actress Meghan Markle.
