Prince William and Kate Middleton
No invite for the Obamas as the Queen personally asks 40 other heads of state to attend Prince William’s wedding to Kate
Daily Mail.co.uk
Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle have not been invited to Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding.
The Queen personally invited 40 heads of state, who received the gold-embossed invitations over the weekend to the April 29 wedding of the future king.
The Obamas, however, were not among them.
But they can take solace in the knowledge that they will be the guests of their very own state visit to the UK in May.
French Prime Minister Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni will also miss out and Prince Andrew’s former wife, Sarah Ferguson – the Duchess of York – has also been snubbed.
Leaders from Commonwealth counties, including Australia, Canada and New Zealand have been invited along with Kings and Queens across Europe, including Spain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Greece.
Other guests include the King of Jordan, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, the Sultan of Oman, the King of Bahrain, the Sultan of Brunei and the King of Saudi Arabia, the Emperor of Japan, the King of Malaysia, the King of Tonga and the King of Thailand.
Wild Thing’s comment…….
Good for the Queen!!!
The way the obamas have treated the British, I wouldn’t invite the sleazebags either.
I have no idea what the problem is with Sarkozy though. But I am grateful to hear this news and the disappointment it will mean to Michelle and Barack.
LOL I bet the Queen got a stomach full from the iPod obamam gave her loaded with Obama’s speeches.
Can you imagine the backdoor diplomatic pressure Obama and gang have tried to apply to England over this? heh heh
Looks like the Queen wanted Guests with some class, not ones that belong on the porch and dress like a bunch of slobs.
You go, Queen!
The Queen rocks!! Obviously she realizes these fraudulent spineless gypsies are nothing more than spotlight drains. Who would want THAT at their grandson’s wedding?!
It looks like they’re mainly inviting royalty but then, President Reagan was invited to Charles and Diana’s wedding.
The Queen has been around too long not to know when her and her nation are being insulted by a Head of State. It’s a crying shame that Obama has brought this upon us after 200 years of the closest relationship with England.
She’s afraid they’ll steal the silver and china.
The only thing I’d invite the O’Quambas to would be to clean cesspools with flex straws. Ughhhhh!
It would really have been a royal snub if she had invited Dubya.
Will kind of miss the clown dress.
LOL love your input.
hahahahahaha
