菲利普親王拒絕參加孫女婚禮,原因驚到我了

In 2018, when you hear the phrase "the royal wedding," your mind immediately goes to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's May wedding in Windsor, England.

2018年，當你聽到“王室婚禮”這個詞時，你的腦海裏會立刻想到哈里王子和梅根·馬克爾在英國溫莎舉行的婚禮。

But Harry and Meghan are not the only royals tying the knot this year.

但是哈利和梅根並不是今年唯一喜結連理的王室成員。

In October, Princess Eugenie will marry Jack Brooksbank at St. George's Chapel in Windsor—the same place her cousin, Harry, got married this spring.

今年10月，尤金妮公主將在溫莎的聖喬治教堂嫁給傑克·布魯斯班克，這是她的堂兄哈里今年春天結婚的地方。

One thing that might be very different about Eugenie's wedding, however, is a key RSVP on the guest list.

然而，關於尤金妮的婚禮有一件事可能會大不相同，那就是賓客名單上的一個重要回復。

Her grandfather, Prince Philip, is reportedly still not sure if he'll attend the fall nuptials.

據報道，她的祖父菲利普親王仍不確定自己是否會參加秋季的婚禮。

Philip, who is 97, retired from public service last year and underwent hip replacement surgery in April of this year.

現年97歲的菲利普於去年退休，不再履行公務，今年4月他還接受了髖關節置換手術。

He's been an infrequent attendee at royal functions since his retirement, but he did make it out to Harry's wedding. That does not mean he'll make the same effort for Eugenie's big day.

自退休後，他就很少參加王室活動，但他堅持出席了哈里王子的婚禮。這並不意味着他會爲尤金妮的大婚做出同樣的努力。

"He does what he wants," a source close to the royal family told People. "He made a supreme effort for Harry. I would be very surprised if he did go, because he is so estranged from Fergie. I think he will decide at the 99th hour.”

一位與王室關係密切的消息人士告訴《People》雜誌：“他要做他想做的事。”他爲哈里王子做出了極大的努力。如果他真的去了，我會很驚訝，因爲他和“菲姬”莎拉·弗格森關係很疏遠。我想他會在最後時刻做出決定。
