Princess Eugenie releases message following her wedding last week

Princess Eugenie has released a message thanking people for their ‘wonderful wishes’ following her marriage to Jack Brooksbank last week.

Releasing her message via her father’s Twitter account, she said: “Jack and I would like to thank everyone who was involved in making our day so special and for all the wonderful wishes as we start married life laughing together.”

Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank married at St George’s Chapel in Windsor on Friday in a ceremony attended by 850 guests, including The Queen and members of The Royal Family.

The ceremony included performances by Andrea Bocelli and readings by Thomas Brooksbank and Princess Beatrice – the cousin and sister of the groom and bride, respectively.

An average of 3 million people tuned in to watch the wedding in the UK, with a peak audience of 3.9 million.

These viewing figures are significantly down on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s wedding which saw a peak audience of 18 million. However, Harry & Meghan’s wedding was broadcast on the BBC & ITV, and the occasion took place on a Saturday.
