Princess Eugenie Changed Her Wedding Vows & Here's Why
Princess Eugenie made a minor tweak to her wedding vows that you (probably) didn’t hear.
Today, the 28-year-old exchanged vows with her beau, Jack Brooksbank, at St. George’s Chapel, and we couldn’t help but notice the small detail that Princess Eugenie omitted from her vows: obeying her husband.
According to the ceremony’s Order of Service, the bride’s pledge didn’t include “to love, cherish and to obey.”
Instead, the princess’s vows read as follows: “I, Eugenie Victoria Helena, take thee, Jack Christopher Stamp, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse; for richer, for poorer; in sickness and in health; to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God’s holy law; and thereto I give thee my troth.”
Princess Eugenie isn’t the first royal to make a statement at her wedding. Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle also excluded “obey” from their vows.
