Celebrated reply to unlucky Edward's proposal (5)
I believe the answer is:
noted
'celebrated' is the definition.
(I know that celebrated can be written as noted)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noted that I've seen before include "Widely known and esteemed" , "Wrote it down" , "Recorded in writing" , "Recorded; famous" , "Renowned" .)
