King Charles and Queen Camilla were likely invited but are scheduled to attend Betfred Derby Day at Epsom Downs the same afternoon. The wedding service is set for between 1 and 2 p.m., while the Derby’s big race is at 4 p.m., making their plans tight. Prince William and Kate, plus Prince Edward and Sophie, are expected to be there.
Prince Harry is not invited amid a reported estrangement. Ex-Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson were also not invited, described as a possible distraction amid legal scrutiny. Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie planned to avoid the controversy; Eugenie is expecting a third child.
