How Meghan, Duchess of Sussex Will Spend Her First Birthday as a Royal

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex is celebrating her 37th birthday on August 4, and it’s a particularly special event this year—it’s her first as a royal. Traditionally, the royal family tends to keep their celebrations private and intimate (besides Her Majesty, who gets a parade during the Trooping of the Colour), and they often take the day off from formal engagements as well. However, new details have emerged on how the Duchess might spend the day.

According to Hello, the Duchess will likely spend her birthday at a wedding with Prince Harry, where he will serve as the best man to one of his closest friends, Charlie van Straubenzee, who will wed Daisy Jenks. The two friends reportedly met as children while attending the Ludgrove Prep School in Berkshire, England, and Straubenzee is said to have attended Prince Harry’s wedding as well.

Prince Harry’s attendance at the wedding was confirmed by royal photographer Tim Rooke on Twitter. “Unfortunately I will be missing the wedding of Charlie Van Straubenzee and Daisy Jenks where Prince Harry will be best man on August 4th in Churt Surrey as I will be on the beach. Can't do everything!” he wrote.

Though no official confirmation has been released of the Duchess’s attendance, it seems likely she will serve as his plus one, as she often does for milestone celebrations. This won’t be the first birthday that she is celebrating with her husband, either. Last year, she rang in her 36th birthday with Prince Harry (then still just a boyfriend) during a holiday in South Africa.
