Users of Cameo write a short prompt for their chosen celebrity, and pay a fee for a clip that usually lasts less than a minute.<\/p>\n
In the clip, the Reform leader said: “Gutted I couldn’t attend the wedding. I wanted to come, but I heard that half the guests were Welsh and, I don’t know. Who knows what would have happened with all those foreign speakers there. I don’t know.”<\/p>\n
According to the Guardian the Cameo user had asked Farage to record a wedding message for “Toby and Sam” in July 2025, and to follow a script which would include him saying the number of Welsh guests were “far too many foreigners for me”.<\/p>\n
Rival political parties criticised the video when it emerged on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Welsh Conservative Senedd leader Darren Millar called it a “gross insult to the people of Wales”.<\/p>\n
“These comments suggest that Reform UK doesn’t care about Wales, our language, our culture or our heritage,” he said.<\/p>\n
A Welsh Labour spokesperson said: “Here we have it clear as day – Farage’s disdain for the people of Wales and the Welsh language.”<\/p>\n
In a post on X, Plaid Cymru said Reform “was not fit to be anywhere near power in Wales”.<\/p>\n
Welsh Liberal Democrat leader Jane Dodds described Farage’s comment as “disgraceful”, saying it showed a “sneering ignorance”.<\/p>\n
The Wales Green Party said: “Farage has no respect for Wales at all.”<\/p>\n
A party spokesperson accused him of making “glib remarks about us like one more group of people to aim his hatred at”.<\/p>\n
James Evans, a Reform Member of the Senedd (MS), told BBC Wales that while it was for Farage to answer for his own words, the Welsh language was “very important” to the party.<\/p>\n
He added: “Wales, let me be very clear, is a bilingual nation. We speak English and Welsh, and whatever language you speak, you should feel welcome in our country.”<\/p>\n
