Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, once the darlings of high-profile events, have now earned a less enviable title: “the uninvitables.” Their conspicuous absence from guest lists has become a topic of social intrigue, fueled by their estrangement from the Royal Family. Let’s delve into the details of their growing social alienation.

A source close to the couple revealed that Harry and Meghan find themselves excluded from invitations to weddings and other significant gatherings. The reason? Their strained relationship with the Royal Family. The fear is palpable: if the Sussexes attend an event, it could inadvertently exclude other families from the social circuit—a faux pas of epic proportions.

Among their peers, Harry and Meghan are now known as “the uninvitables.” Friends have coined this term, emphasizing the couple’s diminishing presence at social affairs.

Earlier this year, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex faced a notable exclusion. They were left off the guest list for the wedding of Harry’s lifelong friend, Hugh Grosvenor, and Olivia Henson. Reports from Express.co.uk in May confirmed this omission.

Prince Harry declined a “save the date” invitation to the Duke of Westminster’s nuptials. His reason? Learning that his brother, Prince William, would play a significant role as an usher. The wedding took place at Chester Cathedral on June 7, leaving Harry reportedly “fuming.”

The source revealed confusion surrounding Harry’s status—was he uninvited or did he decline? Either way, his close friendship with Hugh Grosvenor, forged over years and even shared travels to Africa, made the situation more poignant.

Last week, Express.co.uk disclosed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were not invited to Balmoral, where the rest of the Royal Family gathers this summer. Instead, King Charles and Kate, Princess of Wales, will enjoy family time. It’s a deliberate choice following a challenging year.

As the Sussexes navigate their new reality, the uninvitables’ status remains a poignant reminder of their complex relationship with tradition, family, and social circles.
