An insightful review of Meghan Markle Says She Was Told Not to Invite Her Niece to Her Royal Wedding—check out the main takeaways.

Ashleigh wasn't invited to Meghan and Prince Harry's wedding, though Meghan says that that was not her decision. Instead, she said the royal family were the ones who insisted she could not attend.

"With Ashleigh, the guidance at the time was to not have her come to our wedding," Meghan continued. "I was in the car with [Harry]. I had her on speakerphone, and we talked her through what guidance we were given and why this assessment was made ... and that's painful."

"'How do we explain that this half-sister isn't invited to the wedding, but that the half-sister's daughter is?'" Meghan added, explaining the royal family's reasoning for withholding the invite.
