Meghan Markle, Prince Harry had been snubbed on Beckham’s wedding list.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were reportedly now not invited to the Beckham’s lavish $5 million wedding for one awkward reason.

The phrase “wedding of the year” gets hawked about the vicinity by way of the tabloids with rather indiscriminate abandon.

A Married At First Sight famous person pronouncing ‘I do’ with some retired second-tier footballer whilst carrying cleavage-baring appliqued satin spon-con dress? Wedding. Of. The. Year!

But every so often the WotY label if absolutely appropriate, say when the son of one of the UK’s best carrying heroes and former pop megastar marries the daughter of a billionaire investor in a multi, multimillion-dollar affair that aspects that features a small horde of celebs (Gigi Hadid, Nicole Richie, Elizabeth Hurley, Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen and Serena Williams to title a few) and Snoop Dogg DJ-ing the after-party.

In a second that made every Wannabe-loving former Spice Girls fan experience decidedly old, David and Victoria Beckham’s son Brooklyn married actress and daughter of an obscenely wealthy person Nicola Peltz over the weekend in Palm Beach in a spare-no-expense extravaganza that redefined horribly conspicuous consumption.

But what pursuits you and I here is not that the flower budget was once possibly equal to the GDP of Equatorial Guinea but the royal guest list. Or more accurately, who used to be and who used to be now not invited from the residence of Windsor.

You see, one Duke and Duchess have been reportedly invited to the Beckham/Peltz union and one used to be not, which if this is true, quantities to the social snub of the year.

To apprehend this situation, you want to rewind to 2011 and the wedding of Prince William and one-time charity roller disco organiser, Kate Middleton.

There the Beckhams had been outside Westminster Abbey, a pregnant Victoria demonstrating a mind-boggling stage of masochism by way of sporting positively stratospheric platform Christian Louboutin heels despite being pregnant and David doing his degree fine to wear the hell out of a Saville row morning suit.

So one might suppose that, given all this, both the Cambridges and the Sussexes would have made the guest listing for Brooklyn’s wedding.*

Au contraire.

William and Kate, per a information story, were asked to attend the lavish affair however turned down the offer, Harry and Meghan were not covered on the visitor list.

“The Beckhams were pronounced to have agonised over which royal couple to pick due to the fact of the alleged rift between William and Harry, who now lives in California with actress Meghan,” per The Mirror. “In the stop they plumped for William and Kate because of their long history of friendship.”

This trendy Sussex-free event comes after rumours circulated before this 12 months that we would see Harry and/or Meghan on the Oscars stage supplying an award, a glittering moment which needless to say did now not come to pass.

Nor were the Montecito-based royal expats on the purple carpet for the Met Gala in New York or on Matha’s Vineyard for President Barack Obama’s sixtieth birthday closing year.

Now, Harry and Meghan might also well have been invited to all of these activities and wisely decided they did no longer choose to spend their spare time dodging and weaving royally-star struck celebs in favour of a nice night in taking part in oat milk, sugar-free warm chocolates and a new Brene Brown audiobook.

However, for anything reason, what is brilliant about the Sussexes is, on account that quitting the UK to discuss about making content, how restrained their social life has been.

Like so many assumptions that seemed like rock-solid givens post-Megxit, Harry and Meghan, the wondering went, would make the splashiest of splashes on the American party scene. At the time, there would no longer have been a soiree, premiere, fundraiser, or opening of an envelope from Hollywood to the Hamptons that would now not have fallen over themselves to have them attend. Harry and Meghan have been the social receives and they appeared greater than pleased to rub up towards the biggest of names.

And but … Harry and Meghan seem to be working their way toward Greta Garbo-worthy levels of reclusiveness.
