Duke and Duchess of Cambridge 'snubbed' niece Lilibet's first birthday as Sussexes feud continues

Prince William and Kate Middleton reportedly snubbed Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's invite to attend their daughter's birthday party. The couple chose to go to Wales instead as the country celebrated the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, according to sources.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex invited The Cambridges and their three children - George, Charlotte and Louis - to Lilibet's first birthday at Frogmore Cottage, in Windsor, for a low-key back garden picnic on Saturday, June 4. The pair were reportedly invited to the event as 'an olive branch', according to Page Six, but none of them attended.

William and Kate headed to Cardiff instead with George and Charlotte - while Louis stayed at home - for a royal engagement. According to reports, The Duke of Cambridge is reportedly "still wary of spending time alone with Harry", with a source telling the US paper that relations between the warring brothers is 'still fraught', BirminghamLive reports.
