Anniversary gifts for Royal couple - 19/06/09

Friends and family of the Earl and Countess of Wessex will be hunting for anniversary gifts good enough for Royals to mark the couple's 10th wedding anniversary.

Edward, 45, and Sophie's, 44, relationship blossomed after meeting at a real tennis event in the early 1990s and they were later married at St George's Chapel in Windsor on June 19 1999.

As well as having two children, Lady Louise Windsor, five, and 18-month-old Viscount Severn, the couple devote a lot of their time to their Wessex Youth Trust.

The couple will spend part of their anniversary learning about the organisation Straight Talking, which has benefited from funding from their charity.

The Royal's will attend a seminar held by Straight Talking, which works to tackle the UK's teenage pregnancy.

As part of the initiative young parents go into schools to act as peer educators and give students "parenting" lessons.

The celebrating couple will meet with students, staff, charity members and teenage mothers at Whitton School and Sports College in Twickenham to discuss the work the charity is doing.
