Don’t Save the Queen a Seat at the Wedding
From Times Wire Reports
Buckingham Palace said Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II would not attend the wedding of her son Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles -- but that her decision wasn’t a snub.
The monarch will attend the church blessing at Windsor Castle after the April 8 civil ceremony in the local town hall and will play host to the wedding reception at the castle.
“The queen ... is aware that the prince and Mrs. Parker Bowles wanted to keep the occasion low-key,” a palace spokeswoman said. “This is not a snub.”
