Princess Beatrice wedding: Sarah Ferguson leaves cryptic message on social media

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi finally tied the knot yesterday, nearly three months after they were originally due to marry at the end of April. The first ceremony was sadly

cancelled due to COVID-19, but the couple made up for it with a toned-down event on Friday. Photos have revealed little about who attended, and her mother, Sarah Ferguson, broke her silence

with a Twitter post on Saturday. 

As with Princess Eugenie's wedding, Sarah Ferguson likely played a role in her eldest daughter's ceremony.

Although regularly active on social media, the Duchess has posted little about the occasion, with no direct reference to the wedding on either her Twitter or Instagram accounts.

Over the last three days, she has posted about her daily "storytime with Fergie and friends".

However, yesterday she appeared to break her silence with a cryptic post from one of her favourite graphic artists.

She posted an image by artist Charlie Mackesy of a young boy on a horse flanked by a fox.

The quote in the image reads: "What is the best way to be happy? 'Be kind' said the horse".

While she did not clarify what the post was in aid of, it could be seen as a tribute to her daughter's newfound happiness in marriage.

However, it could be an unrelated message to her younger audience.

Since the lockdown began this year, she has been reading books to children via YouTube every day.

She managed to record and upload her video following Princess Beatrice's wedding yesterday.

Details of the occasion remain sparse, with only a brief description from Buckingham Palace.

In a short statement, they revealed the ceremony took place in the morning and a summary of who attended.

They said: "The private wedding ceremony of Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi took place at 11am on Friday 17th July at The Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge, Windsor.

"The small ceremony was attended by the Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh and close family.

"The wedding took place in accordance with all relevant Government Guidelines."

Sources have revealed some further features of the wedding, including its theme.

Speaking to Town and Country Magazine, one source said the couple tied the knot amid a "secret garden" theme.

The same source added the event was "planned for some time" around the Queen's schedule.

Photos of the day are yet to emerge so as not to overshadow Captain Moore's knighthood.

Sir Tom, who turned 100 at the end of April, raised £33 million for the NHS by lapping his garden during the coronavirus pandemic.
