Prince Harry refused to participate in the "wedding of the year" where his brother William is going to: the reason became known

Harry, Duke of Sussex, has declined an invitation to the wedding of his old friend, the Duke of Westminster, Hugh Grosvenor, and his fiancée, Olivia Hanson, to be held on June 7 in London. Despite the fact that this ceremony is called "the wedding of the year," the prince will not be able to congratulate his friends on an important day for them, as his brother, Crown Prince William, has been invited to the celebration.

According to the Daily Mail, Harry personally spoke with the groom and they concluded that it would be better to avoid the media's attention and possible conflicts. If the brothers, who have not communicated in person for almost two years, meet at the ceremony, an awkward situation may arise, according to the heroes of the occasion.

Both Harry, 39, and his older brother William are longtime friends of Hugh's, so they both received invitations. And it was unclear whether the Dukes of Wales and Sussex would come until insiders clarified the situation.

"Both parties recognized that Harry would have a hard time at the wedding. It was an understanding between two friends. The Duke of Sussex sends his love, support, and admiration to the couple on their wedding day," the insider was quoted as saying.

Since the celebration will take place in the UK, Harry would have to fly home from the US. He is deliberately avoiding this after the palace refused to fund his security and evicted the prince from Frogmore Cottage.

The Duke of Westminster, who will soon say goodbye to the life of a bachelor, inherited the title and family fortune of £10 billion at the age of just 25. He was considered one of the most enviable grooms in the country.
