LONDON: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson married his fiancee Carrie Symonds in a “secret ceremony” on Saturday, UK media reports said.
Known for his colourful love life, 56-year-old Johnson wed Symonds, 33, in Catholic Westminster Cathedral in front of close friends and family, the Mail on Sunday and The Sun newspapers reported.
Symonds arrived at the lunchtime nuptials in a limousine and wore “a stunning long and flowing white dress” but chose not to wear a veil, it added.
There were no descriptions of Johnson´s attire, with the mop-haired British leader infamous for his often disheveled appearance.
The same priest who baptized the couple´s son officiated the wedding, and Wilfred was also in attendance, according to The Sun.
Johnson, who has faced several bruising days of scrutiny after his former top aide Dominic Cummings lambasted his government´s handling of the coronavirus pandemic in front of a parliamentary committee Wednesday, has been married twice before.
He had four children with his previous wife, lawyer Marina Wheeler, before they split in 2018. The couple only finalised their divorce last November.
Johnson also reportedly has a daughter born as the result of an affair. When elected in 2019, he became the first prime minister to live at Downing Street as part of an unmarried couple.
