Before the Duke of Westminster’s upcoming wedding, the absence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has been notable. It’s been reported that the groom, Hugh Grosvenor, is Prince George’s godfather, but did not extend an invitation to Harry and Meghan. 

The reasoning seems to be that the couple’s presence could potentially overshadow the event, taking the focus away from the bride and groom. There are concerns that Meghan’s outfit choices or behavior may become a distraction, recalling previous incidents where she has, for example, announced a pregnancy at someone else’s wedding.

Grosvenor apparently wants the day to be solely about him and his bride. There have been claims that Meghan has been pushing the narrative that Grosvenor is a godparent to her son Archie, leveraging his wealth and status. However, prior reports have listed Archie’s godparents as Lindsey Roth, Genevieve Hills, Mark Dyer and others, without mentioning Grosvenor.

Meanwhile, Prince William is set to serve as an usher at Grosvenor’s wedding, and there is hope that Prince George may also have a role, though that depends on the Princess of Wales’s schedule. Catherine’s name remains on the guest list, though it’s understood she may politely decline to avoid upstaging the bride.

The rift between the two princes is said to be incredibly sad for Grosvenor, one of the few who has maintained strong bonds with both William and Harry. Grosvenor apparently wishes the brothers could reconcile, though he recognizes that scenario is unlikely, and wants to avoid any awkwardness overshadowing his wedding day.
