Will Prince William And Prince Harry's Step-Sister, Camilla's Daughter, Attend The Royal Wedding?
Surely, we are all eager to get to know who will make it to the wedding guest list for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s nuptials this year. While it has still to be finalized, there’s one name that is likely to score an invite, even if you have never heard of this person.
Overlooked faction of the family
Of course, the long-awaited wedding will be a high-profile affair, so all senior royals, including the Queen, Prince Charles, Kate Middleton, Prince William, and many more, are expected to attend it. But what about other, lesser-known members of the famous family? For example, in case you didn’t know, William and Harry have a step-sister, Laura Lopes.

In fact, the daughter of Camilla from her first marriage genuinely gets along with the two princes. And she has been on the scene for a while. Not only was the 40-year-old among the guests at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, but her oldest daughter Eliza was one of the flower girls.

Kate and William were also invited to Lopes’ wedding ceremony along with other 400-500 guests, so we assume she’s quite popular. Given her warm relationship with her step-siblings, it is expected that she will be invited.

What do we know about her?
As she prefers to keep low profile, there are not many details about her private life. In 2006, the daughter of the Duchess of Cornwall tied the knot with Harry Lopes. In 2 years, they welcomed their firstborn and in 2009, Laura gave birth to two beautiful twin boys.
Another unexpected guest
The Queen’s grandson also insists that his aunt, the Duchess of York, should attend the wedding. Sarah Ferguson is the ex-wife of Prince Andrew, the second son of Queen Elizabeth II. After the 1996 divorce, she retained her title but has a frosty relationship with her ex-husband’s father.

In 2011, she was excluded from the guest list, which left her heartbroken. She later revealed:
It was so difficult. Because I wanted to be there with my girls…
This time, the prince will do things his way by healing "broken family ties." As insiders say:
He wants his aunt there – and she will be.

Meanwhile, there’s another royal wedding on the way, as Sarah’s daughter Eugenie is going to wed her beloved later this year.
