Two days to Queen Elizabeth’s funeral: The British Telegraph newspaper reported this morning (Saturday) that the invitation of the Dukes of Sussex, Harry and Meghan, to the reception event, which will host world leaders including US President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron, has been canceled. This, after already received an order earlier this week.
According to the report on the British website, it is unlikely that the couple will attend, as palace officials have insisted that it is for members and employees of the royal family only. Meanwhile, presidents and prime ministers from all over the world will arrive in the capital during the weekend, alongside foreign royalty, governors and ambassadors. They will be received by The Princes of Wales, The Princess Royal and The Earls of Wessex. The newspaper also stated that not inviting the couple suggests a lack of communication between the parties, as well as an uncertainty of how to deal with Harry and Meghan, as members of the Queen’s family.
