Celebrating the Marriage of His Grace The Duke of Kent and Miss Katherine Worsley: A Regal Moment on the Secondary Front Cover of The Illustrated London News in 1961 The Illustrated London News (ILN) secondary front cover from 1961 bears witness to a momentous occasion in the annals of British royalty – the marriage of Edward, Duke of Kent, and Miss Katherine Worsley. The Duke, born in 1935, was the youngest son of Prince George, Duke of Kent, and Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark. His bride, Miss Katherine Worsley, hailed from Hovingham Hall near York. The photograph captures the newlywed couple as they walk down the aisle at York Minster, surrounded by the grandeur and solemnity of the historic cathedral. The Duke, resplendent in his military uniform, exudes an air of regal confidence and pride, while the radiant Miss Worsley, in her elegant bridal gown, looks lovingly at her husband. The marriage of the Duke and Miss Worsley took place on May 29, 1961, and was a grand affair, attended by members of the royal family and high society. The occasion was widely covered by the media, and the ILN's secondary front cover was a testament to the significance of the event. The Illustrated London News, a renowned British weekly magazine, had been reporting on royal events since its inception in 1842, and this cover marked yet another milestone in its rich history. The image of the Duke and Miss Worsley, captured in the moment of their marriage, remains a poignant reminder of the enduring allure and tradition of the British monarchy.
