The Duke and Duchess of
Sussex have been keeping a low profile and were notably missing from Prince
Philip’s service of thanksgiving this week, citing security reasons for
their absence.
Harry and Meghan are good
friends of the Beckhams, who have enjoyed close links to the royal family for
years. Victoria and David were invited to the Sussexes’ nuptials in May 2018,
as well as Prince William and Kate’s royal wedding back in April 2011, so it
wouldn’t be a surprise if the Beckhams have extended a wedding invite to both
royal couples.
Before she quit royal
life, Meghan publicly showed her support for fashion designer
Victoria by wearing her pieces on some very memorable official engagements. One
of her last outings as a working royal saw Meghan stun in a bright blue T-shirt
style dress at the Endeavour Fund Awards. The photo of her and Harry arriving
at the event and being caught in the rain has since become iconic.
For the 2019 Commonwealth Day
service when she was pregnant with Archie, Meghan also chose to dress her bump
in a chain-link Victoria Beckham dress. And for her first Christmas Day church
service as a Duchess, she also turned to the former Spice Girl’s brand opting
for a figure-hugging, navy dress.

Harry’s friendship with David,
meanwhile, goes way back so it wouldn’t be a surprise if they do fly from
California to Florida for Brooklyn’s wedding. The nuptials are reportedly
taking place on 9 April at the bride’s £76million family home in Palm
Beach. The sprawling estate – known as Montsorrel –spans 44,000-square-feet and
boasts a swimming pool, vast gardens and beautiful sea views.
Back in 2013, speaking
to Esquire, David opened up about his bond with Harry and his older brother
Prince William. “We’ve done a lot of functions together,” the
footballer said of the royals. “It’s a very normal relationship. With
Harry, as well. They’re very easy to get along with. They love their sport.
William loves Aston Villa, unfortunately, which obviously I give him a bit of
stick about.”

The upcoming Beckham-Peltz
wedding is being covered exclusively by Vogue. Meghan also has a good
relationship with British Vogue’s editor-in-chief, Edward Enninful, as she
famously guest-edited the publication’s September 2019 issue, entitled
Forces for Change. It became the magazine’s fastest-selling issue and sold out
in ten days.
