Washington: Days after her daughter Chelsea got engaged to investment banker Marc Mezvinsky, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says she is very excited about their marriage next summer which would be a private affair.
“I am officially an MOTB: a mother of the bride. I’m very excited about it,” Hillary told CNN.
“It's, for me particularly, an extraordinary moment to see how happy my daughter is and to have such a wonderful young man who will become my son-in-law,” she said.
At the same time, Hillary acknowledged that it is a daunting task for her to plan the wedding amidst her hectic job as the Secretary of State.
“Madeleine Albright called me the other night and she said, well, when I was Secretary of State and had not a minute to myself, I had to plan a wedding, so if you need any advice, just call me. And I said I'll be calling.”
When asked where the wedding would be held, Hillary refrained from divulging the details.
“We're working on it. But it'll be a private affair. It'll be for her (Chelsea's) close friends, and that's the way it should be,” she said.
Last week, Chelsea, 29, got engaged to marry Mezvinsky, 31, son of former lawmakers Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky of Pennsylvania and Ed Mezvinsky of Iowa.
