A royal photoghaper has shared Lady Charlotte Lindesay-Bethune’s stunning wedding portrait, a month after she wed Prince Jaime of Bourbon-Two-Sicilies in a stunning ceremony in southern Italy.
Sharing the image last night, royal photographer David Wheeler admitted it was a ‘highlight of his career’ and called the three-day celebration ‘magnificent’.
Lady Charlotte wore one of her father Earl of Lindsay’s family tiaras, a pearl and diamond-fringed piece which once belonged to Archduchess María Anna of Austria.
The Duke of Noto married Lady Charlotte at The Cathedral of Monreale on September 25, near the town of Palermo, with the bride donning an elegant white Phillipa Lepley gown featuring a lace bodice.
Charlotte, 28, is the youngest daughter of Scottish businessman James Lindesay-Bethune, 16th Earl of Lindsay, and Diana Mary Chamberlayne-Macdonald. The Duke, 29, is the heir apparent to Prince Pedro of Bourbon-Two-Sicilies and his wife, the former Doña Sofia.
The Royal House of Bourbon Two Sicilies – or Bourbon des Deux Siciles – is an ancient branch of the Spanish royal family which ruled parts of southern Italy for more than 100 years from 1734 to 1861. Its descendants still carry the name today, some 150 years later.

Sharing the picture on Instagram, Wheeler wrote: ‘One of my favourite images of HRH Princess Charlotte from her wedding to Prince Jaime a few weeks ago in Italy.
‘What an honour it was! The couple married in the hills of Sicily in a truly magnificent ceremony in Monreale Cathedral. Their celebrations continued at the Royal Palace, followed by a beautifully intricate Palace in Palermo.
‘Princess Charlotte wore a stunning Phillipa Lepley gown, featuring a bespoke embroidered top and a duchess satin skirt.
‘It was such an incredible honour to photograph their three day celebration, without doubt one that I will never forget! Thank you again to my wonderful team and all of those involved in making everything come together so beautifully. A career highlight for me!’
