The second British Prime Minister to marry during his term.. Johnson tied the knot in an unannounced ceremony

British media reports said that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson married his fiancee Carrie Symonds in an undisclosed ceremony, to be the second British Prime Minister to marry during his term after Robert Jenkinson, who took office two centuries ago, and married in 1822 while in office.

The Mail on Sunday and The Sun said Johnson, 56, who is known for his busy love life, married his 33-year-old fiancée Symonds at Westminster Abbey, in the presence of close friends and relatives.

The wedding came as a surprising development after reports earlier this week that the couple was preparing for a wedding on July 30 next year, and a spokeswoman for Johnson's office in 10 Downing Street declined to comment on the press reports.

And according to “Mail on Sunday”, about 30 people attended the party on Saturday, which is the maximum currently allowed under the measures to reduce the Corona virus, after they received invitations at the last minute, while the Sun newspaper indicated that even senior members of Johnson’s office were not aware. wedding plans.

Johnson and Symonds have lived together in Downing Street since Johnson became prime minister in 2019. Last year, they announced their engagement and were expecting a baby, with their son Wilfred born in April last year.

Symonds, the former head of communications in the Conservative Party, gave birth to their son, Wilfried, just weeks after Johnson was released from the intensive care room, recovering from a serious infection from the Corona virus.

Johnson was married twice in the past, and has 4 children with his ex-wife, lawyer Marina Wheeler, whom he separated in 2018, and his divorce was completed last November.

Johnson is also said to have a daughter from a previous affair, and when he was elected in 2019 he was the first British Prime Minister to live in Downing Street with a non-marriage partner.

The fiancés Johnson and Symonds have been in the spotlight in recent weeks due to an investigation into a scandal surrounding the high cost of redecorating their Downing Street apartment.
