Eugenie's wedding

Do you agree with them?

So we all know by know that Princess Eugenie’s wedding is coming up in October.

And frankly we’re excited… we bloody love a royal wedding so we do.

The lovely Princess will be marrying wine merchant Jack Brooksbank in a lavish ceremony in Windsor.

However, in a juicy twist, the BBC has refused to broadcast the big event.

And needless to say, Prince Andrew is NOT happy.

Prince Andrew is Eugenie’s dad btw, and son of the Queen.

So why did the BBC, England’s national broadcaster, make the decision not to air this major royal wedding?

Apparently, the bride’s father approached the BBC, asking them to broadcast the event.

However, sources are claiming that the request was denied, due to the fact that “there isn’t enough support for the Yorks.”

The BBC feared that the airing would flop, and ultimately result in a loss of money.

The royals aren’t delighted by the news…

“The feeling at the Palace is that the BBC has dropped the ball,” a source close to the family said to The Daily Mail.

“At the end of the day, this is going to be a huge Royal Wedding, with all the senior members of the Royal family in attendance. But nobody wants to take the risk and spend the money it would cost to put it on air.”

There are rumours that ITV may pick up the broadcast.

Either way, we’ll be glued to social media on the day!
