Royal Bride: Lady Melissa Percy andThomas van Straubenzee
![]()
Members of the royal family arrived for the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland’s second daughter, Lady Melissa Percy and Thomas van Straubenzee at St. Michael’s Church in Northumberland. Prince William and Prince Harry, who have been friends with Van Straubenzee since they attended Ludgrove Prep school and Eton College, were among the first guests to arrive at the society wedding. Kate Middleton, who made her last public appearance at the Trooping the Colour ceremony, skipped the event.
Meanwhile, the 26-year-old bride looked gorgeous as she arrived in 200-year-old horse-drawn carriage, wearing a Bruce Oldfield gown. Chelsy Davy, who dated Prince Harry for six years, was the chief bridesmaid and looked stunning in a camel-colored dress.

Unfortunately her wedding ended in divorce but she sure was a beautiful royal bride, and she will be a bride again for sure.
