The wedding of Greek Prime Minister's son with tennis star Sakkari and the "booked" date

The wedding of Greek Prime Minister's son with tennis star Sakkari and the
Greek PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis asked Patriarch Bartholomew to save a day in September

A revelation with a unique background story was made by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew—the spiritual leader of Eastern Orthodox Christians worldwide—from the Turkish island of Imbros, as he revealed that Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis asked him to reserve a date in September 2027 for a very specific reason: the wedding of his son, Konstantinos, to Greek tennis star Maria Sakkari. The disclosure took place on a particularly symbolic day for the Patriarch, who was celebrating 65 years in the Orthodox priesthood. Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, with his characteristic humor, replied "perhaps, if I am in good health," leaving open the prospect of his official presence to officiate the ceremony. Interest now shifts to where the wedding will take place—likely in Greece—and which high-profile world figures and international athletes will make the guest list. One thing is certain: the occasion is set to become one of Europe's most high-profile celebrity weddings of 2027.
