Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Snubbed by the Beckhams? No Wedding Invitation for Them
Kate Middleton and Prince William were reportedly invited to Brooklyn Beckham's wedding, but Meghan and Harry were not, based on a new report.
David Beckham's eldest son, Brooklyn, married Nicola Peltz on Saturday in a lavish ceremony costing £3 million. It's widely believed that the Cambridges asked the Beckhams to their own wedding in 2011 so they are also invited to the present gorgeous Florida affair.
In any case, it's safe to assume they politely declined the invitation and didn't show up for the festivities.
David and Victoria were also invited to the Sussexes' 2018 wedding but it's now reported that they have not extended the same courtesy to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
David and Harry are well-known for their friendship, and it has long been expected that they will be on the guest list. But apparently this is not the case.
Was there a valid reason? In the world of showbiz and royalty, where public image reigns supreme, it seems there is.
As reported by Mirror, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did not receive an invitation. This is not however, out of spite.
As reported by The Sun, David and Victoria Beckham "agonized" over inviting William and Harry and Meghan and Harry to their wedding.

Security concerns may have also prevented the couple from accepting their invitation.
