This will be the first wedding in the British royal family since the Prince Charles and Camilla wed in April 2005.

Peter Phillips and his sister Zara hold no royal title or style. Peter is currently tenth in line to the British Throne. He has no royal duties, and currently works for the Royal Bank of Scotland in Edinburgh. Autumn Kelly, who is Canadian, is a management consultant.

No date has been set for the wedding.

Best wishes to the merry newly-engaged couple!

    This is wonderful news, Autumn seems like a nice, level headed young woman.

    It is great news! The couple have pretty much kept out of the limelight. But they both seem nice and great for each other. I wish them the best!

    Hi Tonya,
    It seems that the press is none too interested in digging up the unpleasant stories about Autumn. I did manage to find that website, but her photos are no longer there. Well, Peter obviously thinks she’s wonderful for him, so I still wish them the best of married life. :)
