King's Nephew Peter Phillips Marries NHS Nurse in Private Ceremony

Peter Phillips married NHS nurse Harriet Sperling at All Saints Church in Kemble, Gloucestershire during a private ceremony on Saturday. The couple chose the venue because Sperling lived in the village when they met. Phillips and Sperling began dating in 2024 after Phillips split with his first wife in 2020, and the pair announced their engagement in August 2025.

III and Queen Camilla arrived to cheers from well-wishers gathered outside the church. Metal barriers separated media and public areas, and road closures were in place around the church. Members of the public from multiple countries traveled to the village and cheered as the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived.

Sperling arrived with three bridesmaids amid shouts of "hip hip hooray" from onlookers. Catherine used an umbrella during rain that fell during the event. The wedding occurred on the same day as the Epsom Derby. The King and Queen planned to travel from the ceremony to the racecourse to present the trophy to the winner.

Local residents Pemil and her daughter Adrielle said they were excited to attend. Another well-wisher, Zoe Fraser, noted that villagers had conducted a special litter pick and practiced bell-ringing in preparation for the event.
