Amid the wedding bells, the classic royal divide between Prince Harry and Prince William reaches its moment of reckoning! Celebrations are in order for the royal family as the seventh Duke of Westminster prepares for his wedding on June 7 at Chester Cathedral.
Hugh Grosvenor, who is tight with Prince Harry and William, is tying the knot with Olivia Henson. However, the Duke of Sussex gave a pass on the “save the date” invite to dodge any “awkward” royal encounters. Is it all because of Prince William?
Prince Harry: Harry Declines the Invite on PURPOSE!
Prince Harry chose to sit this one out as his brother, William, will be at the ceremony as an usher. This very move “triggered” Harry to back out of the invite. A source told Express UK, “The move triggered Harry to decline an invitation. It was the FINAL nail in the coffin.” Additionally, they highlighted how Harry was expected to do the honours rather than William!
“Harry was very close to Hugh growing up, so everyone thought it would’ve been him taking up a leading role.” However, insiders disclosed that Prince Harry planned to “snub” the ceremony even before William was brought into the scene. An insider told Page Six, “Harry actually got a ‘save the date’ card a few months ago.” It turns out that the Invictus Games founder decided to ditch the ceremony to avoid any drama.
Prince Harry conveyed his apologies to Hugh over the phone, and he understood. Furthermore, royal know-it-all Tom Quinn spoke about the upcoming nuptial celebration. “William will attend the wedding of Hugh Grosvenor – he can hardly avoid it as Hugh is Prince George’s godfather.” Quinn noted how Harry turned down because it would be ‘too awkward.’ But hold up, there’s more! Tom added, “Harry knows he can’t attend without Meghan, and she insisted she won’t be there.”
It’s funny how Meghan always finds herself in the mix of royal troubles.” Meanwhile, Harry’s six-year-old won’t be there for his godfather’s big day either. Who can say when the reunion will finally occur? It’s getting more frustrating with each hour that passes! Do you agree?
