In the film Meghan Markle is not invited to Pippa Middleton's wedding but is able to attend the reception after Harry protests. What transpired in real life is unknown, but several British tabloids reported that Middleton did have a "no ring, no bring" policy for guests bringing plus-ones, though some guests such as James Middleton and Princess Eugenie attended with guests they were not married or engaged to. Reportedly, Pippa Middleton extended an invitation to Markle, but she chose not to attend the wedding to not draw attention or attract paparazzi, but did attend the reception.
