Speaking ahead of the wedding, Eugenie hinted her dress would be backless and will not cover her surgery scars.

During an interview on ITV’s This Morning, Eugenie said: “I think you can change the way beauty is, and you can show people your scars.”

The 28-year-old, who was diagnosed with scoliosis when she was 12-years-old, underwent a successful operation to straighten her spine after treatment at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in London.

The Princess said: “I’m patron of the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital’s Redevelopment Appeal of their appeal and I had an operation when I was 12 on my back, and you’ll see on Friday, but it’s a lovely way to honour the people who looked after me and a way of standing up for young people who also go through this.”

Representatives from the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust attended the wedding. 

Father-of-the-bride Prince Andrew revealed he had to make accommodations to ensure he can walk Princess Eugenie down the aisle because of a specific aspect of her wedding dress.

Ahead of the ceremony, Prince Andrew said: “I don’t think many people know anything about this dress.

“All I know is, as you would expect, there is a train. I believe the train is quite wide, I’ve got to walk on the left of the carpet to make sure she can walk in the middle of the carpet.”

Guests at the wedding include Kate Moss, Demi Moore and Naomi Campbell among other A-List arrivals.

Windsor was expected to escape the worst of Storm Callum, but conditions were very blustery as the guests arrived, with many holding on to their hats.

One man was even spotted chasing after a fellow guest’s hat as it blew off and rolled along the ground.

The gothic chapel was filled with autumnal flowers, chosen by Eugenie to evoke the rich and vibrant tones of the season.

“I thought there would be lots of people arriving but there aren’t, I’ve been waiting and waiting.”
