  • All Saints Church in Kemble hosted Peter Phillips and NHS nurse Harriet Sperling's private wedding on Saturday, drawing King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William and Kate, Zara and Mike Tindall, and the Edinburghs.
  • Cheers greeted the royal arrivals as members of the public gathered behind metal barriers and road closures, with Sperling arriving alongside three bridesmaids — Phillips' daughters Savannah, 15, and Isla, 14, and her daughter Georgina.
