The invitation read: “His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales K.G., K.T. requests the pleasure of the company of (name) at the marriage of His Royal Highness Prince Henry of Wales with Ms. Meghan Markle at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle on Saturday 19th May 2018 at 12 noon followed by a reception at Windsor Castle.”

In comparison, Kate Middleton was referred to as ‘Miss’ on the royal invitations before her wedding to Prince William back in 2011. What’s more, this is the first time that Queen Elizabeth has ever referred to someone as Mr. It is the correct way to address a divorced woman, according to etiquette experts.

Royal commentator and manners coach William Hanson explained to the Mail Online, “It was first used in connection to Meghan in the November engagement announcement and since then has been used throughout the royal household’s communications, on press releases, invitations, and social media.”

For a lot of royal observers, it’s a sign that the royal family is moving ahead with the times. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be getting married at Windsor Castle on May 19th. About 200 guests have been invited to the evening reception at Frogmore House, which will be hosted by Prince Harry’s father, Prince Charles. Many British media outlets are already calling it the social event of the year.
