Royal Wedding Snubs
CNN reports that neither President Donald Trump nor Barack Obama will be attending the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. A Kensington Palace spokesman said world leaders and political figures would not be invited in their official capacities.
Donald and first lady Melania Trump were not invited, nor were any other elected US officials, a White House official said.
Barack and Michelle Obama, who are close to the couple, also will not be attending.
CNN understands that some world leaders may be invited on the basis of their personal relationships with Harry and Meghan.
A Kensington Palace spokesman said: “It has been decided that an official list of political leaders — both UK and international — is not required for Prince Harry and Ms. Markle’s wedding. Her Majesty’s Government was consulted on this decision, which was taken by the royal household.”
So, we’ll just have to wait and see who may have be invited at the last minute.
