Do Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's Wedding Invitations Have A Typo?
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's wedding invitations have already been released and people are quick to point out one "typo" on these.
The elegant and minimalist invites were already sent out to the public, however, eagle-eyed fans noticed one detail that may have been overlooked by those who were not curious. The wedding invitations allegedly had a blunder on one of the names, and clue: it's not Prince Harry's name.
"[A]t the marriage of his royal highness Prince Henry of Wales with Ms. Meghan Markle at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle on Saturday, 19th May 2018 at 12 noon followed by a reception at Windsor Castle," a portion of it read.
However, for those wondering, Henry Charles Albert David is the real name of the groom, and Harry was just how he was known by the public, so clearly it wasn't his name that needs editing. Needless to say, it's the name of Markle that left the public abuzz, with some citing the error was in connection with the recent supposedly shade thrown by Queen Elizabeth II.
Not the Real Name
Observant fans stressed that Markle's real name wasn't used on the wedding invitations. Apparently, people took offense over the omission of the Suits actress's full name, Rachel Meghan Markle. Yup, her real first name is her character in her legal drama series, but she has since used her second name.
Interestingly, many people questioned this and dubbed the invitations as having a typo. Nonetheless it is important to note that Markle had been adapting her stage name all throughout, even used in the declaration of Queen Elizabeth, so it might probably be the brunette's choice that it was just that that was written in the wedding invitations.
The wedding invitations were made by Barnard and Westwood and printed by Lottie Small. The process of printing, called die stamping, was rigorous as it was done with a 1930 machine.
'Hints' Of Disapproval?
Now that the royal wedding is nearing, many people started noticing "hints" on how Markle is probably with Prince Harry's family. It was just recent when many noted how Queen Elizabeth seemed to subtly give her "disapproval" when she gave her consent to Prince Harry and the American actress's wedding.
Many stressed that the Queen shaded Markle when she lacked adjectives before the 36-year-old's name at her declaration, a far cry from what she had done to a previous royal wedding.
"My Lords, I declare My Consent to a Contract of Matrimony between My Most Dearly Beloved Grandson Prince Henry Charles Albert David of Wales and Rachel Meghan Markle ...," it read.
There is nothing wrong with it, at first glance, except if you are an avid fan of the royal family. It was noted that it wasn't how Queen Elizabeth addressed Kate Middleton in her declaration in 2011. Her Royal Highness seemed to have gotten nice words to say to the then soon-to-be-wife of Prince William.
"Our Most Dearly Beloved Grandson Prince William Arthur Philip Louis of Wales, K.G. and Our Trusty and Well-beloved Catherine Elizabeth Middleton," the consent read.
