November 19, 2018

If you're in royal wedding withdrawal, fear not - another royal wedding is on the books! Princess Theodora of Greece and Denmark has followed in Prince Harry's footsteps and found a Meghan Markle of her own, American attorney Matthew Kumar. "Words can’t express our happiness and excitement," the royal shared alongside one of the duo's engagement photos. "I can’t wait to marry this wonderful man. I love you Matt."

Though they're yet to announce any details about the couple's big day, the family shared a statement confirming the exciting news. “Their Majesties King Constantine and Queen Anne-Marie are delighted to announce the engagement of their youngest daughter Theodora to Mr. Matthew Kumar.”

And additional family members were quick to share their excitement in the comments of her social post, with her niece Princess Olympia saying, "BEST NEWS EVAAAAA," while her brother Prince Nikolaos exclaimed: “I’m so unbelievably happy for you and wish you both a life of eternal happiness.”

The 35-year-old met her California-bred beau in Los Angeles, where the Brown University theatre grad had a role on the long-running soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful under the name Theodora Greece, according to her IMDB page. And while the Greek monarchy was abolished in 1974, this wedding is still sure to be one for the books. After all, the England-bred princess counts the Queen as her godmother!
