Prince William major force behind latest family snub to Harry, Meghan Markle?

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have not been invited to Princess Anne’s son Peter Phillips wedding next month, and the insiders have claimed Prince William influenced the decision.

Peter Phillips is planning to tie the knot with NHS nurse Harriet Sperling in June after they announced their engagement last year.

The family has extended invitations and as per reports, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Andrew and Sarah Ferguson are not in the guest list.

Speaking to the Mirror, royal expert Jennie Bond has shared major reason why Meghan and Harry have not been included in the guest list.

Among one of the reasons, the expert claimed its Peter Phillips closeness to Prince William.

The expert tells the outlet, “It’s clear that the rift between Harry and his father and brother has had repercussions throughout the whole family.”

Jennie explained, “It’s an incredibly sensitive situation and all the rest of the family can really do is try not to cause further upset.

“I think Harry will understand, but he used to be close to his cousin, Peter, and it’s only natural that he will feel rather excluded on such a big occasion. Peter is closer in age to William and, since Harry‘s decision to leave the UK, they obviously see one another much more.”

She continued, “With Harry and William still not on speaking terms, Jennie believes that Peter has remained loyal to the Prince of Wales throughout their rift, and the Duke of Sussex is likely to be left out of major family events involving his cousins while their rift remains unresolved.”

“Peter is a very dependable, jovial guy and he has shown in the past that he can be a buffer between the warring brothers. But I think his loyalty now lies with William and I’m sure his friendship has been invaluable through the past few very difficult years.”
