Meghan Markle<\/a><\/strong> really wanted Barack <\/strong>and Michelle Obama<\/strong> to attend her wedding, but the royal palace was reportedly against the idea. The concern was not personal. Palace insiders reveal that advisers stepped in because inviting the Obamas and not Donald Trump<\/a> could have become an international matter. Hence, the Obamas did not attend and instead sent their regards.<\/p>\n Meghan Markle looked up to the Obamas and was keen on inviting them to her wedding. However, Rob Shuter\u2019s exclusive report<\/a> on Substack revealed that the palace advisers did not think it was a good idea to invite Barack and Michelle Obama without inviting the Trumps. Therefore, the concern, per the sources, was potential political fallout.<\/p>\n In the end, the Obamas did not attend. They did, however, send their wishes while Markle and Prince Harry moved ahead with a carefully managed guest list for what turned out to be a global event.<\/p>\n A palace insider told Shuter, \u201cMeghan was desperate to have the Obamas there.\u201d They explained, \u201cShe saw them as everything she and Harry aspired to be \u2014 powerful, modern, beloved.\u201d Meanwhile, another source added that the risk of offending Washington was too high if they left Trump out, stating, \u201cIt would\u2019ve caused an international incident.\u201d<\/p>\n Prince Harry<\/a> and Meghan Markle tied the knot in May 2019, and their wedding was a grand spectacle. They married at St. George\u2019s Chapel at Windsor Castle, with a ceremony that blended royal tradition with American touches.<\/p>\n Though the Obamas could not make it, the guest list was nothing short of stellar. Oprah Winfrey, George and Amal Clooney, David and Victoria Beckham, Serena Williams, Elton John, and Idris Elba were a few of the couple\u2019s friends who made the list.<\/p>\n After her wedding, Meghan Markle met Michelle Obama in London and interviewed her for British Vogue\u2019s September 2019 issue.<\/p>\n The post Insider Claims Meghan Markle Wanted Obamas to Attend Her Wedding, but Royals Refused<\/a> appeared first on Reality Tea<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Meghan Markle really wanted Barack and Michelle Obama to attend her wedding, but the royal palace was reportedly against the idea.
