British Prime Minister Boris Johnson secretly married Carrie Symonds, a woman 23 years his junior. The ceremony took place on Saturday, May 29, at Westminster Cathedral.
This is reported by the edition The Sun. It is noted that the ceremony was held with the participation of clergy and about 30 guests.
According to preliminary information, guests were invited at the last minute. At first, no one knew about the wedding, but an hour before the ceremony, tourists were informed that the church would be closed. After 1:30 pm, the limousine carrying the bride drove into the square at the main western doors, 300 meters from the busy Victoria Station.
Kerry, 33, came out wearing a long white dress. She decided not to wear the veil. The newlyweds walked down the aisle to classical music and kissed after reading the vows.
Armed police are believed to have been nearby. One of the witnesses said that the cathedral was blocked for a half-hour service.
