It has been reported that the royal couple have started on the invite list to the wedding of the year, but there are a few big names that have been purposely left off.
The Trump family and the Obamas have been purposely left off the list because it is an event for friends & family, and royal insider explained:
"President Trump will not be invited because the wedding will be for friends and family only," an insider told Daily Mail. "It won't be a state occasion. If Mr Obama was invited, the invitation could look like a snub to Mr Trump, and His Royal Highness would not wish to cause a diplomatic row."
Prince Harry & Barack Obama seem to have a good friendship as the two were spotted spending time together at the Invictus Games in 2017, and previous to that, Harry interviewed Obama for radio.
