Meghan Markle, extremely pregnant person, might just be planning to try to make it to a wedding that's happening two weeks from today.
Buckingham Palace has issued a statement about the royal attendees of Lady Gabriella Windsor's upcoming wedding that is so vague, it has some royal fans convinced that it means Meghan might attend.
Per Daily Mail royal correspondent (and all-around royal family expert) Rebecca English on Twitter:
Of course, this isn't a promise that Meghan will attend the wedding, but it's also not a promise that she won't.
BP: The wedding of Lady Gabriella Windsor and Mr Thomas Kingston will take place at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle on Saturday 18th May 2019. The wedding will be attended by Her Majesty The Queen, accompanied by Members of the Royal Family.May 3, 2019
The marriage ceremony will commence at 12pm, conducted by the Dean of Windsor, The Right Revd David Conner.May 3, 2019
If Meghan does turn out for Lady Gabriella's nuptials, it will potentially be mere days after giving birth. Given her stance on a post-labor photo call, it seems unlikely that Meghan will push herself to be royal-engagement-ready so soon after delivering, but we'll just have to wait and see what she decides—and support that decision, whatever it may be.
