Love is in the air! Princess Theodora of Greece is set to marry Matthew Kumar on Saturday at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens.
The British-born Greek royal, 41, got engaged to lawyer Matthew in 2018 so their special day has been a long time coming - especially as it has been postponed twice.

"On what should have been our wedding weekend - the love and support from friends and family have been so appreciated. We can’t wait to celebrate with all of you in Greece once it’s safe," the Princess penned.
At the time, the couple set their new date for "early 2023" and planned to tie the knot in Porto Heli.
A second postponement
In January 2023 their do was rescheduled a second time after the passing of the bride's father King Constantine just one month after the official announcement of their new wedding date.
