EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the historic moment when the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, formerly King Edward VIII and Mrs. Wallis Simpson, exchanged vows on the 3rd of June 1937 at the Chateau de Cande, near Tours in France. The image showcases the newlyweds standing on the castle's grand staircase, with the Duke in his military uniform adorned with the Star of India and the Order of the Garter, and the Duchess in a beautiful, elegant gown. Their marriage was a significant event in British history, as King Edward VIII abdicated the throne just six months prior to marry the American socialite, who was considered to be a divorcee and therefore unsuitable to be the Queen Consort. The couple's decision to marry against the wishes of the Church and the British government led to a constitutional crisis and the Duke's brother, Prince Albert, Duke of York, ascending to the throne as King George VI. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a controversial and intriguing chapter in royal history. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor's marriage was shrouded in scandal and controversy, yet it also represented a bold move towards personal freedom and happiness, which continues to fascinate historians and the public alike.
