Sarah Ferguson May Be Listed On Princess Beatrice’s Wedding Certificate With This Change

Sarah Ferguson could make history with the role that she will play at Princess Beatrice’s royal wedding. Other than serving as the mom of the bride, the Duchess of York could also be the first royal to be listed in her daughter’s marriage certificate.

Liz Taylor, the founder The Taylor Lynn Corporation, told Express that Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi will most likely tie the knot at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. This is also the venue where Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank tied the knot.

If Princess Beatrice will indeed tie the knot at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, this means that she will have a Church of England ceremony. The Church of England, which is headed by Queen Elizabeth II, is set to undergo major changes in the coming months.

The Church of England will be changing the way that they record marriages. Even though the plans have not yet been finalized, Fergie may be listed on her eldest daughter’s certificate. In the past, only the father of the bride and groom are listed on the certificate.

This means that when Princess Eugenie tied the knot, Prince Andrew and her father-in-law’s names were the ones listed in the certificate. But it is unclear if the same rule was followed when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex also tied the knot at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. If fathers are required to be listed in the certificate, this means that Thomas Markle Sr. and Prince Charles’ names are there. However, Markle’s dad didn’t attend her royal wedding.

“At present, the Government has announced neither the details nor the dates for implementing these changes – and subsequent legislative work is still required. No timeframe is set in place for this work,” a statement released on the Law & Religion UK read.
