Jacinda Ardern summer wedding: After two years of engagement to partner Clarke Gayford, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced the couple has "finally got a date" for their wedding. Buzz on the block suggests they are looking at a summer wedding, which would mean sometime between December and February in New Zealand. A date has not been disclosed.

"That doesn't mean we've told anyone yet, so I feel like we should probably put some invites out," she told local media, as quoted in the New Zealand Herald.
Ardern, the youngest-ever PM of New Zealand, and Gayford, a prominent television presenter, have reportedly been together since 2013. In 2018, the two became parents to a daughter, after Ardern notably held office while pregnant, among the world's few female leaders to have ever done so. A year later, around Easter, they got engaged.
Last year, Ardern had revealed that the couple had "some plans" for marriage, but "they are some way off." Read here.

The 40-year-old, however, has expressed she is not too inclined to partake in a bridal party, as is the custom surrounding weddings. She attributes it to feeling "a bit too old" for the same.
"I don't know if it's just me, for some reason I feel like because I'm getting on a bit I just need to forgo it," she told local media.

October last year Ardern was sworn in as the PM of New Zealand a second time, as her Labour Party secured a sweeping win in the election.
