While it was expected that Middleton would make an exception in Markle’s case, a friend said that Ms Middleton got worried after the huge media blitz that greeted the American actor’s appearance alongside Prince Harry at the recent Caribbean wedding of his close friend Tom “Skippy” Inskip to Lara Hughes-Young.

The friend told the Daily Mail: “She saw how all eyes were on Meghan rather than Lara last week. The situation was also stressful for Harry.”

The Sun revealed this month that Brian McFadden’s ex-wife has agreed not to attend the nuptials.
