Viewers were left howling on Friday when the BBC News subtitles made a rather unfortunate error about Princess Eugenie.
The 28-year-old royal had just arrived at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle to marry Jack Brooksbank when the subtitles got decidedly mixed up between the words “dress” and “breasts”.
Yes. Really!

While the speaker had been praising Eugenie’s “beautiful dress”, the subtitles that appeared on screen changed that to “what a beautiful breasts”. Oops!
Naturally, it didn’t go unnoticed by eagle-eyed viewers who took to Twitter to point out the error.

BBC chose not to broadcast the ceremony in full, so royal fans had to tune into an extended version of ITV’s This Morning, hosted by Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford, to watch the full event.
Eugenie arrived with her dad, Prince Andrew, The Duke of York, to huge cheers from the waiting crowds outside St. George’s Chapel.
