Flora’s wedding dress designer, Phillipa Lepley, also gushed: “How exciting – many congratulations to you both.”
When did Flora and Timothy meet?
Flora and Timothy first met after being set up by their mutual friend, Alexander Danielsson.
Flora explained to Vogue in 2025: “I met Alexander whilst living in Paris for a Sotheby’s internship. He studied with Timothy at the Stockholm School of Economics and eventually introduced us in London a few years later.
“The three of us then joined other Scandinavian friends in swimming in the Serpentine early on weekday mornings. Timothy and I fell in love and became engaged within six months.”
Going from strength to strength, the pair got married during the COVID-19 pandemic in September 2020 in an intimate ceremony. Their ceremony took place at the Chapel Royal at St. James’s Palace.
A year later they tied the knot again with their family and friends in attendance, including Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh.
In May 2025, Flora shared her autism diagnosis in a personal essay for British Vogue. She said: “I’ve struggled quietly with the challenges of my neurodiversity since childhood, but am now also able to perceive its strengths.
“It brings a sense of relief as well as validation. I know that this will not only help me to be kinder to myself, but also help my community to support me effectively.”
