The Sicily it has just been a frame royal wedding fairytale. Saturday 25 September Prince Don Jaime of Bourbon, 27 years old, eldest son of the seven children of Pietro di Borbone and Donna Sofia Landaluce y Melgarejo, He married in the Cathedral of Monreale, a town on the outskirts of Palermo, Scottish noblewoman Lady Charlotte Diana Lindesay-Bethune, 28 years old, youngest daughter of the 16th Earl of Lindsay.
The bride, I’m wearing a beautiful white dress with a lace bodice, a precious one on my head tiara of diamonds and pearls that belonged all’arciduchessa Maria Ana d’Austria, arrived in the cathedral square with her father, the politician James Randolph Lindesay-Bethune, in a carriage drawn by four white horses. There he was waiting for her the groom with his mother, Donna Sofia Landaluce y Melgarejo, and a band of musicians from bagpipes, a tribute to Lady Charlotte’s Scottish origins (her father also accompanied his daughter to the altar with a tartan vest, green and gray, the colors of the family clan).
Beyond two hundred guests, including many noble descendants and descendants of illustrious families, who met in Sicily to celebrate the newlyweds. Many i onlookers crowded behind the barriers. There are those who came down from home at 7 to earn the best seat and watch the great event from afar. To officiate the wedding on cardinale Gerhard Ludwig Müller. The married couple, on the advice of the families, called the theologian who in 2012 was appointed prefect of the congregation for the doctrine of the faith by Pope Benedict XVI (in office until 2017).
After the religious ceremony in the Cathedral, spouses and guests returned to Palermo for a cocktails in the gardens of the Royal Palace (which was also the residence of the Bourbons). Then the dinner at Palazzo Mazzarino.
Don Jaime delle Due Sicilie and Lady Charlotte announced their engagement last May. The future husband, Duke of Noto, direct descendant of Francesco II, the last king of the Two Sicilies, currently lives in Paris. A law degree and a master’s degree in business administration, director of a venture capital fund since 2018, speaks Spanish, English, French and Italian. There future bride, an Oxford graduate, currently works at Citibank in London. Both very much reserved (neither of them has a social profile) are living their love as far as possible from media attention: “I love anonymity,” the prince told Vanity Fair.
Until recently Jaime was in all the rankings that listed the golden bachelors of the European royal houses. And this, for the Duke of Noto and his fiancée, was a constant source of “jokes and jokes”. But Jaime’s name should be crossed off the list. From 25 September, with the Sicilian royal wedding, he became a married man.
