哈里王子婚禮空座位留給戴安娜？肯辛頓宮：女王前面不能坐人

As Meghan Markle met her prince at the altar, cameras showed Prince Charles, Camilla and Kate looking up at the happy couple.

當梅根在婚禮殿堂見到她的王子時，攝像機拍到查爾斯王儲、卡米拉和凱特正注視着這對幸福的夫婦。

And in front of the Queen - next to Harry's big brother - was an empty spot.

而在女王的前方，威廉王子旁邊有一個空座位。

Royal fans said the sentimental move left them "tearful" and "thinking of the late princess".

王室粉絲稱，這個感傷的舉動讓他們“淚流滿面”，“想起了已故的戴安娜王妃”。

There was also speculation the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge did the same at their wedding in 2011.

還有人猜測，威廉凱特2011年大婚時也做了同樣的事。

瞬間，全球各地的網友都被這個“空位子”暖到了，他們紛紛跑到推特上留言，表示被感動的一塌糊塗……

事實上，這只是一場誤會。英國《鏡報》轉引消息人士稱，留出空座位只是爲遵循皇家禮儀。

According to Buckingham Palace sources, the spot in front of the Queen is always left empty.

據白金漢宮消息人士透露，女王前方的位置始終是空的。

不過，哈里的確在婚禮上緬懷了戴安娜。據英媒報道，梅根手裏捧着的花束，就是哈里親手從母親戴安娜的花園中摘下的，是戴安娜最喜歡的——勿忘我。

Sir Elton John also performed at Harry and Meghan's lunchtime wedding reception.

艾爾頓•約翰爵士也在哈里梅根的婚禮午宴上表演。

The singer has a close relationship with Harry and his brother, the Duke of Cambridge, and was friends with the Princess of Wales.

這位歌手與哈里和威廉很親近，是戴安娜的朋友。

按照慣例，王室成員大婚當天，女王通常會封予其爵位，而這些爵位是先前獲封者過世後空出來的。

當天早些時候，女王授予哈里王子薩塞克斯公爵封號，梅根婚後成爲薩塞克斯公爵夫人。

The couple will now officially be known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, a dukedom that has not been in use since 1843 and has been re-created especially for them, a royal statement said.

一份王室聲明稱，哈里夫婦現在正式獲封薩塞克斯公爵和公爵夫人。這個爵位自1843年以來就未曾被動用過，是特別爲他們重新使用的。

Prince Harry has also been given Scottish and Northern Irish titles, becoming the Earl of Dumbarton and Baron Kilkeel.

哈里王子還被冊封爲蘇格蘭鄧巴頓伯爵以及北愛爾蘭基爾基爾男爵。

Sussex is a county in the south east of England, stretching down to the southern coast along the English channel. The largest city is Brighton and the county has a population of around 1.6 million people.

薩塞克斯是英格蘭東南部的一個郡，沿着英吉利海峽一直延伸到英國南海岸。該郡約有160萬人口，最大的城市是布萊頓。

There has only been one previous Duke of Sussex. The title was created in 1801 upon the birth of Prince Augustus Frederick, the sixth son of King George III and Queen Charlotte.

此前歷史上僅有一位薩塞克斯公爵。1801年，喬治三世和夏洛特王后的第六個子嗣奧古斯特王子獲封該爵位。
