EDITORS COMMENTS
This commemorative First Day Cover marks the historic wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, formerly King Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson, on the third of June, 1937. The royal couple exchanged vows in a private ceremony at the Chateau de Cande in Monts, France, following the Duke's controversial abdication from the British throne. Their love story began in the late 1920s when Wallis Simpson, an American socialite, met the Prince of Wales, who would later become King Edward VIII in 1936. Their relationship was met with widespread scandal and disapproval due to Wallis's divorce and subsequent remarriage, as well as her perceived lack of suitability as a future Queen consort. Despite the controversy, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor remained devoted to each other, and their wedding was a grand affair attended by an esteemed guest list, including European royalty and high society figures. The wedding day was filled with opulence and elegance, with Wallis wearing a stunning gown designed by Mainbocher, and the Duke donning the uniform of a Field Marshal of the British Army. Their marriage was a significant moment in history, as it marked the first time a reigning monarch had abdicated the throne to marry a commoner. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor lived out the rest of their days in exile, but their love story continued to captivate the world, and their legacy remains an intriguing chapter in the annals of British royalty.
