Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were reportedly excluded from the guest list for the upcoming wedding of their longtime UK friend, Hugh Grosvenor, amid escalating tensions within the royal family. Read full article
Grosvenor, a godparent to the couple's son Archie, allegedly chose not to invite them to avoid potential drama and awkwardness.
Despite the strained relationship between the Sussexes and the royal family, Grosvenor's decision aims to prevent any overshadowing of his wedding to Olivia Henson.
The Duke of Westminster's spokesperson declined to comment on the guest list, while Prince William, Kate Middleton, and King Charles III reportedly made the cut.
Tensions have heightened recently due to the release of Omid Scobie's book, "Endgame," and the accidental mention of King Charles and Middleton in connection with alleged "racist" comments made by Markle.
The rift traces back to Harry and Markle's departure from royal duties in 2020, with further strain following the release of the Netflix documentary "Harry & Meghan" in December 2022.
