Prime Minister Boris Johnson has married fiancee Carrie Symonds in a low-key ceremony planned at Westminster Cathedral on Saturday. The couple said I do in front of a small group of close friends and family as per Covid restrictions.
Initially, Downing Street would not comment on reports of the wedding but on Sunday morning a spokesman said: “The Prime Minister and Ms Symonds were married yesterday afternoon in a small ceremony at Westminster Cathedral.
“The couple will celebrate their wedding with family and friends next summer.”
They are said to have sent save-the-date cards to family and friends for the celebration on July 30, 2022.
Now the couple has released a touching photo from the day, showing them smiling at one another in a garden.
Mr Johnson’s wedding to Carrie marks his third marriage, having finalised his divorce from his second wife Marina Wheeler in 2020.
He and the new Mrs Johnson have a son, Wilfred Lawrie Nicholas Johnson, who was born in April 2020.
The wedding ceremony at the Catholic cathedral was carried out by Father Daniel Humphreys, who had given the couple pre-marriage instructions, and baptised Wilfred last year, The Sun reported.
Shortly after 1.30pm on Saturday, the cathedral was suddenly cleared of visitors, with staff saying it was going into lockdown.
Half an hour later, a limousine carrying the bride swept into the piazza outside the main west door.
The ceremony meant Mr Johnson became the first prime minister to marry in office since Lord Liverpool married Mary Chester in 1822.
