Meghan Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, may have invitations to this year’s Met Gala, but the pair likely won’t be attending the event.
Speaking of express deliveryPR expert Jordan James said the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would not be surprised if they were snubbed given their long-running feud with the royal family.
However, if the pair do receive an invitation to “Hollywood’s most prestigious red carpet event”, they are likely to decline, as it was scheduled to take place just five days before King Charles’ coronation.
“Given their current status in the royal family and the ensuing drama, it would certainly not come as a surprise if they were snubbed,” the expert claimed.
If the California-based couple does manage to secure an invitation to the annual fundraising gala, it could “boost their public profile in the U.S.,” Jordan said.
“They are unlikely to attend as they will undoubtedly face scrutiny no matter how hard they try to minimize the fallout – especially given how close the event is to the royal coronation,” he added.
The expert went on to discuss the couple’s absence from this year’s Oscars, saying there appears to be a “shift” in the way they present themselves.
“While the couple wasn’t always known for their low profile, I think we’re starting to see a change in the way they want to present themselves — whether it’s really voluntary, though we’ll probably never know,” he said. share road.
