The Prince of Wales’ uncle Charles Spencer (9th Earl of Spencer) has announced an almost royal wedding date a little after his nephew.
The earl is to marry Karen Gordon, described by the BBC as a “charity worker”, at the Spencer family home on the 18th June. Unlike his nephew’s wedding however, this will be a private affair with close friends and family attending.
Karen Gordon was the founder of the Whole Child International charity in 2004 which according to its web site:
“…works in existing children’s institutions to improve the quality of care and help prevent the bleak outcomes that await most children raised in the world’s orphanages“.
