The palace has also confirmed that baby Prince Louis, who will be four weeks old at the time, will be left at home when his parents and siblings attend the ceremony and festivities for the May 11 royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle.
5月11日,哈里王子和梅根•马克尔将在温莎城堡的圣乔治教堂举行婚礼,届时威廉王子夫妇将带乔治小王子和夏洛特公主参加婚礼和宴会。但肯辛顿宫已确认路易小王子将不会参加,婚礼时他刚刚满月。
The latest prince probably won't be seen in public until his christening. Since it was reported that Markle has decided not to have a maid of honor but, rather, just bridesmaids and page boys, it's expected that Prince George and Princess Charlotte will participate in the ceremony.
路易小王子可能要到接受洗礼时才会公开亮相。据报道,马克尔决定不设首席伴娘,但据称乔治小王子和夏洛特公主将担任婚礼的花童。
