First Same-S*x Royal Wedding in History: Queen’s Cousin Ties the Knot.

The historic first same-sex royal wedding took place on 24th September 2018, as Lord Ivar Mountbatten, Queen Elizabeth II’s cousin, tied the knot with his partner James Coyle in a small church in Bridwell. This was a significant moment for the British royal family and the LGBTQ+ community.

The intimate wedding ceremony was attended by 60 guests, including members of the British royal family and close friends of the couple. Despite the small scale, it was a warm and joyous occasion filled with love and happiness.

Lord Ivar Mountbatten made history in 2016 when he became the first member of the British royal family to publicly declare his sexuality as gay. He later revealed that James Coyle was his partner, and after two years of being together, the couple finally had their happy ending.

The wedding was made even more special when Lord Mountbatten’s former wife, Penny, also attended the ceremony. In an interview with the press, Penny revealed that she had walked her ex-husband down the aisle and wished him all the best for the future.

“Our daughters came up with this really interesting idea, and it was a lovely thing to do,” said Penny, expressing her support for the couple’s union.

Although the Queen did not comment on her cousin’s wedding, she has previously voiced her support for the LGBTQ+ community. In her speech at the opening of the UK Parliament in 2017, she stated, “My government will make further progress to tackle the gender pay gap and discrimination against people on the basis of their race, faith, gender, disability or sexual orientation.”

The first same-sex royal wedding in British history was a milestone moment for the LGBTQ+ community and the British royal family. Lord Ivar Mountbatten and James Coyle’s love story is a testament to the fact that love knows no boundaries, and everyone deserves the right to love and be loved. Their wedding is a symbol of hope and progress towards a more inclusive and accepting society.
