Prince Andrew Excluded from Nephew Peter Phillips' Wedding

Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling will marry on 6 June at All Saints Church in Kemble, Gloucestershire. Senior members of the royal family – King Charles III, Queen Camilla, Princess Anne, the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, Zara Tindall and Mike Tindall – are expected to attend.

According to multiple reports, Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor (Prince Andrew) was not invited to the ceremony. The Daily Mail and other outlets say his name was omitted from the guest list, citing his lingering reputation after the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, his loss of royal titles and duties, and the desire to keep the event “distraction‑free.” A friend of the couple also confirmed that neither Prince Andrew nor Sarah Ferguson would be present, adding that Prince Harry was not invited either.

Since being stripped of his titles, Prince Andrew has lived at Marsh Farm on the Sandringham estate, where he receives privately funded security. Recent commentary describes his life as increasingly reclusive, with observers noting limited family contact and a low‑key routine. The exclusion from the wedding underscores the ongoing fallout from his alleged misconduct and the royal family’s attempts to distance themselves publicly while maintaining private support.
