Marlene Koenig, a royal expert and author warned fans of Kate Middleton not to expect her to play a prominent role in the upcoming nuptials - for two reasons.
She said: “The Duchess of Cambridge barely knows Meghan.”
Ms Koenig also told Cosmopolitan: “For another, she is the future queen consort when William becomes king after his father, and would unlikely be an attending person to another royal bride.”
Ms Koenig explained that the only title the Duchess could hold is matron of honour.
