THE BRIDESMAIDS
Bridesmaids in royal weddings are almost always children, and very rarely adult women. (Pippa Middleton’s role in William and Catherine’s 2011 wedding was a rare exception.)
The most famous person in Meghan Markle’s tiny posse will be the bridegroom’s niece and the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, aka William and Catherine.
Florence is one of Prince Harry’s goddaughters. Her parents are his friends Nicholas and Alice van Cutsem.
Zalie is also Harry’s goddaughter. Her parents are his friends Zoe and Jake Warren.
Remi and Ryan are goddaughters of Markle. Their mother is Benita Litt, one of Markle’s close pals. Their father is Darren Litt.
Rounding out the group of bridesmaids is Ivy, the daughter of one of Markle’s best friends, stylist Jessica Mulroney. Ivy’s father is Ben Mulroney, a Canadian television host and son of the former Canadian prime minister Brian Mulroney.
THE PAGE BOYS
The Mulroneys are well-represented in the wedding party. Two of the four page boys are Ivy’s twin brothers.
Jasper is the son of Harry’s friends Amanda and Mark Dyer.
Last but not least is Harry’s nephew and the future king of England. (He is currently third in line to the throne, after his grandfather Prince Charles and father, Prince William.)
