Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds are due to marry next year. 

The Prime Minister, 56, and Ms Symonds, 33, have sent out save-the-date cards to friends and family for the event on July 30, 2022, The Sun reports. 

The pair got engaged in 2019 but had to delay the wedding due to the coronavirus crisis.

It is not yet known where exactly they will celebrate the occasion, but friends of the couple claim they will host the large gathering next year, when the Covid crisis will hopefully have died down.

Mr Johnson’s Buckinghamshire country pile, Chequers, is tipped to host the wedding, reports say. Other possible locations include Kent’s Port Lympne safari park, where Ms Symonds works. 

Mr Johnson and Ms Symonds are the first unmarried couple to live in Downing Street, having moved in during July 2019.  

The PM proposed while on holiday in Mustique in the Caribbean, shortly his party won an impressive majority in the December 2019 General Election, reports say.

Ms Symonds was scarcely seen at Mr Johnson’s side on the general election campaign trail, but waved with her soon-to-be husband on the steps outside the famous black door following the Conservatives’ thumping victory. 

The couple chose to live at the larger four-bedroom flat at No 11 Downing Street instead of the smaller two-bedroom official residence at No 10. 

They share a dog, Dilyn, with the PM saying that he helped keep his stress down during the election campaign. 

It has been suggested in the past that Ms Symonds could not become a fully-fledged ‘first lady’ until the couple were married.

Mr Johnson was coy when asked about the subject in 2019, telling reporters that marriage speculation was ‘a tiny bit premature’.

The couple have their own affectionate names for each other, with her reportedly calling him ‘Bozzie Bear’, while he refers to her as ‘Otter’.

Their engagement, and news that Ms Symonds was pregnant, was announced in February last year. 

Mr Johnson, who has been married twice previously, finalised his divorce with estranged wife Marina Wheeler, with whom he has two daughters and two sons, that same month. 

Mr Johnson and Ms Symonds’ son Wilfred was born in April that year.  

The couple had first been pictured together in 2018, during a fundraiser.
