Prince William appeared in good spirits after he was joined by his cousins for a rainy garden party at Buckingham Palace earlier this week.
The Prince of Wales stepped in for King Charles to host thousands of guests for the traditional summer event of the year.Moreover, the Duke of Westminster also used to share a close bond with the Duke of Sussex but it seemed that William has taken his position.
As reported by Express, the Prince of Wales “was asked to take up a leading role in the wedding and that’s what triggered Harry to decline an invitation. It was the final nail in the coffin.”
An insider added, “Harry was very close to Hugh growing up so everyone thought it would have been him taking up a leading role, not William.”
Previously, Page Six reported that the former working royal “got a ‘save the date’ card a few months ago but called Hugh and said it would be too awkward if he and Meghan Markle attended, so he made his apologies and Hugh understood.”
