There's lots of wedding news coming from London. Actually I should probably say "potential" wedding news because no-one's actually engaged yet, but love and romance is definitely in the air.
The most interesting possibility is that Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, also known as His Royal Highness The Duke of York and Her Not Royal Anything The Duchess of York, or Randy Andy and Fergie, are thinking about getting re-married. There was a time when this would have seemed as unlikely as Charles and Camilla making it legal, but as I've said before a lot has changed in 20 years. I would love to see it happen, actually, because I think Fergie deserves some happily-ever-after. Yes, she's made some dumb mistakes but she's also been raked over the coals/thrown under the bus in all kinds of ways, sometimes by tabloid editors wanting to sell papers, sometimes by disloyal friends wanting to make money and sometimes by royal courtiers wanting to make the actual royals look good by comparison. Plus, it can't have been easy to be "the chubby one" standing next to Princess Diana for all those years. Fifteen years ago it was whispered that Charles and Camilla couldn't marry until his granny the Queen Mum died, but she did and they did. There's a similar dynamic now - supposedly Andy and Fergie can't remarry until Andy's father Prince Philip dies, because Dad really, really disapproves of Fergie, so we'll have to wait a while to see if this one comes true. I say Go for it Fergie!
There's also talk that Prince Harry, Princess Beatrice and/or Pippa Middleton are all possibly close to tying the knot. More to say about that soon!
