This Saturday, Princess Theodora of Greece will at last walk down the aisle to marry her long-time partner, Matthew Kumar, at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens. The wedding, which has been a long time coming, is finally happening after years of delays.
The couple got engaged way back in 2018, as reported by Hello Magazine, but their wedding plans hit several roadblocks. Initially, they planned to wed in 2020 on the beautiful Greek island of Spetses.
However, their dream of exchanging vows was shattered by the global pandemic. Like so many others, their plans were derailed by the unexpected COVID-19 lockdown.
Despite the forced postponement, the couple didn’t let the day go unmarked. Princess Theodora took to Instagram to share an intimate moment, posting a photo of herself with Matthew.
In her heartfelt caption, she reflected on what should have been their wedding weekend, expressing gratitude for the love and support they received from family and friends during that challenging time.
She promised, “We can’t wait to celebrate with all of you in Greece once it’s safe.” The daughter of the late King Constantine II was determined to make the big day happen when the time was right.
The wedding was rescheduled for January 2023, but yet another unforeseen tragedy struck. In the same month, Constantine II passed away, casting a shadow over their plans once more.
With her father’s passing, the couple made the difficult decision to postpone the wedding yet again, pushing the date further into the future as they mourned his loss.
Now, after years of waiting and two postponements, the big day is finally here. Princess Theodora and Matthew Kumar are set to say their long-awaited “I do’s” in front of loved ones.
