The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were reportedly ‘uninvited’ to a formal event for world leaders and foreign royals tomorrow evening.
The pair is said to have received an invitation to the dinner, hosted by King Charles and the Queen Consort, earlier this week.
However, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan are now unlikely to attend after Buckingham Palace authorities stressed the reception was solely for working royals, it is believed.
US Vice President Joe Biden, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are among the world leaders expected to visit in London this weekend for Queen Elizabeth’s burial on Monday.
World leaders, diplomats, and foreign royals will be welcomed at the Palace by the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex.
The uncertainty about Harry and Meghan’s invitation indicates a breakdown in communication between the California-based pair and the Royal Family.
It comes after an apparent U-turn on Harry’s ability to wear military uniform despite his status as a non-working royal.
The Palace is said to have stepped in to allow Harry to wear his regalia at today’s 15-minute vigil at Westminster Hall.
Harry has already said that he would dress formally at all funeral functions.
