Before he met and fell in love with Meghan Markle (pause for swoons), Prince Harry had quite a few girlfriends (opens in new tab)—the most serious of which were Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas. Both Davy and Bonas run in the same social circles as Harry, so you might be wondering if they'll score invites to the royal wedding. And the answer appears to be yes and no, in that order.

Us Weekly (opens in new tab) reports that while Bonas likely won't get an invite, Davy is expected to attend. "Don’t expect to see Cressida invited—the two didn’t remain friends—but do not be surprised if Chelsy shows up with a date," a source tells the magazine. "The two have remained friends long after ending their relationship and still keep in touch to this day."

Apparently, Davy "congratulated [Harry] the minute the engagement news was announced" and "Meghan would have no problem with her being there." As of now, it appears as though Harry's ex is "on the preliminary list of friends to invite."

Harry dated Davy from about 2005 to 2010, and she even opened up about their relationship, saying (opens in new tab), "It was so full-on: crazy, and scary, and uncomfortable. I found it very difficult when it was bad. I couldn't cope. I think we will always be good friends."
