Meghan Markle is said to be privately fuming in California after she and Prince Harry failed to secure an invitation to this year's Met Gala in New York on 4 May, with one insider claiming the Duchess of Sussex remains 'convinced' that a last‑minute call will arrive despite what is being framed as a deliberate snub.
The Met Gala is the annual star‑studded fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, and one of the most closely guarded guest lists in the celebrity calendar. Tickets are notoriously controlled and, in practice, guests are hand‑picked by Vogue's global editorial director Anna Wintour, who is also a co‑chair of this year's event alongside Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman and tennis icon Venus Williams.
